Norwegian Dawn vs. Crown Princess or Carnival Legend

[Sailingagain0123]

We are trying to sort out which trip to book for spring break. I am more experienced with Princess, Celebrity and Carnival lines. Although the ratings are good for the NCL ships, I keep reading that the food isn't very good and the ships and rooms are dirty.

The NCL prices also seem to be dropping in comparison to the other lines.

Is there something I should know before making a decision?

:confused:

Should hopefully answer some of your questions.

We've sailed on all 3 ships you've mentioned. As far as which ship is the "nicest" we would choose Crown Princess, but I have to be honest that both Carnival Legend and Norwegian Dawn were both nicely decorated....

 

as far as cleanliness...... all 3 were definitely well taken care of.

Food is subjective... we didn't care for Freestyle Dining on NCL but that's not to say the food wasn't good... no complaints regarding food on the other 2 ships either.

On all 3 cruises we always found items we really liked and items we wish we hadn't even taken a bite out of :D

 

Which ship to take???? Since I don't know what itineraries each ship is sailing I couldn't honestly answer that question.
