When I was last on her in December 2006, there were a number of aspects in which she was showing signs of wear. But these may have been fixed in the recent drydock. Certainly, one previous time cruise (either October 2003 or October 2004) she was looking so good I commented on it, and then discovered that she had just come out of drydock then.
I thought that the NCL product declined somewhat between October 2004 and December 2006, and there are some things which are definitely no longer as good as they were (eg the Sports Afloat thing has been discontinued). But the ship seems to remain a pretty happy place and one on which a great cruise can still be had.
