Decent sized cabin. But only one nightstand - had to use the couch as my nightstand. Good storage and closet space. Bathroom was decent with a nice shower. Some overhead noise from children above us, but otherwise quiet.

The tour we wanted (Tycoons) was cancelled so we did a shorter tour.

Tendering was so poor that we missed the independent tour excursion that we had booked, and had to find room with another tour (that could handle the 10 of us) on the dock

Excellent tour and wine tasting experience.

Montevideo

Puerto Montt

Walked and took buses. Saw a significant part of the city in 4.5 hours.

Buenos Aires

Pros:

Itinerary (prior to the changes)

Best haircut on a ship

Decent food

Excellent special bar activities (Martini Tasting, Margarita Tasting, Black Glass Wine Tasting)

Good cabin stewardess

Decent bathroom/shower

Tango/Gaucho show was excellent

Smaller portion sizes so less food waste

Cons:

Inconsistent handling of tenders (poor to very poor)

Inconsistent service in the Versailles (did not appear to have assigned staff to our table for 10 - had up to 5 attendants per meal)

Missed ports/Cape Horn for unclear reasons

Limited wine options on the Beverage plan (when the ships own label beats most offerings, that says a lot)

Short stays in ports

Slow embarkation process

Poor staff to cruiser ratios

Same restaurant lunch menu each day

This was our 25th cruise - and 3rd (and last) with NCL.With limited staff, service was overall poor - however, we had excellent service in Gatsby's bar, where the staff was knowledgeable and excellent.
