Expensive party cruise with VERY POOR customer service!!

Beware of what you think you are paying for!! Most likely it is NOT SO!!
So I chose this cruise being that I had the Forth of July week off from my job. This fit great in to my plans, and I didn't have to rush back to work on Tuesday...Embarkation and disembarkation were very smooth! That being said.....
I didn't have big expectations for the ship, although the Norwegian Sun was refurbished in 2018 and the public rooms and cabins had the refreshed look, the feel of the ship was still old and out dated. Also, I wasn't aware that every passenger on the ship had the free drink package...so really, this is a "drunk" cruise. Beware! It felt like a half step up from a Carnival party cruise. On that note, one thing I was disappointed in was that there were no enrichment activities available during the day, such as classes or tastings, etc., that I have always enjoyed on other cruises. I believe that that this is due to the open bar policy, and Norwegian doesn't expect that a bunch of drunk cruisers would have the need for learning anything. They did have PLENY of BINGO though! yay :(
Cabin Review
Mid-Ship Balcony
Our balcony cabin was adequate...prepaid gratuities in advance, so we only saw the cabin attendant 2 times. No special touches like towel animals or chocolates on the pillows.
Good water pressure in the small and very plain bathroom. We had the continental breakfast delivered in the mornings from room service (no extra charge for all cruisers). I highly recommend this as a wake up service and great way to start your day!
I wouldn't recommend a balcony stateroom for a Bahamas cruise as there isn't much to see other than the open water when cruising, and Nassau, looking very shabby!
