My wife and I cruised w/ another couple both of us having cruised similar itinerary on the Pearl in 2008.Our 4th NCL and their 2nd NCL cruise.Our 7th cruise and their 10th overall.So let me begin.
EMBARKATION:a breeze once they started process.We arrived at port 10:30 and on boat 11:30.No problems.
CABIN:usual small inside deck 10 midships.Lot of noise from behind cabin at night.Asked for eggcrate for bed which helped a lot.Cabin steward exceptional.Had problem w/ water in sink/shower that would not get below scalding.6 phone calls and 45 min wait for plumber.Entire shower appliance replaced later so no further issues.Closet door hinge broken but not a big issue as ship headed for dry dock in April.
Usual sized inside cabin.Asked for eggcrate which helped w/ bed.Had broken closet door hinge and sink/shower water problems that were resolved after 6 phone calls and 45 min wait.Needs more bathroom storage and larger screen television.Very noisy behind and above cabin.We thought we had researched well and that there were only other inside cabin's above us but not so.
