Chose this cruise due to the great ports listed in the original itinerary. Could have definitely lived without Guadaloupe stop which was substituted for St. Martin. Have been on 14 prior cruises, second on NCL and was really disappointed at how crowded and noisy the common areas were. The atrium area, coffee bar, pool, deck, Aqua and Venitian dining rooms and especially the Garden Cafe were all so loud and overcrowded. Everyone seeming to try to talk over everyone. Mostly could not find a place to sit for breakfast or lunch, and kids running everywhere, unsupervised. Used our mid ship patio often for some peace and quiet as well as trying to find a quiet spot on deck. We found the entertainment to be excellent. As well as the service. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Cabin size was disappointing. We have experience larger rooms in same category on other cruise lines. Closet and storage space was space and no night tables with drawers. If this is NCL's product, it may be awhile before we consider another cruise with them.
Felt it was on the smallish size compared to other similar balcony rooms in this range.
