Sail Date: Jan 2020
Cabin: Mid-Ship Balcony Stateroom

Hadn't been on NCL for a year. While the crew and service were outstanding, cut backs were evident in the main dining room menu and quality of food. Consistently food was cold and entrees were disappointed. No shrimp cocktails and lobster. Only had creme broulee one night. Main dining room food was so disappointing we ate in the buffet 3 nights which we had never done before on 12 cruises. Couldn't get reservations in comedy club or pour house any of the 11 nights. Their new show SIX is terrible. Don't waste your time seeing it.

NCL's bigger ship design is flawed and no where near RCL's ships of same size. Crowded and smokey. Trivia was too hard. Several of the activities staff were irritating escpecially Cassie, Simba and another one who said Whow all the time. Not enough activities while ship was in port. All activities were held in Atrium which didn't provide enought seating for more popular events.

Mid-Ship Balcony Stateroom

Good size. Shower was larger than on other ships.
