This was our first cruise experience, so we have nothing to compare DFDS Seaways against. However, we were delighted to be onboard, and found the ship (MS Princess of Norway) to be in good order. Overall I would say it was clean, in a good state or repair and well managed. The cabin we had was indeed small, but to be honest, we didn't really care. Service on board was generally poor, with waiting times for food sometimes in excess of 40 minutes. The evening buffet was very good, and we really enjoyed the crabs claws. Prices on board are expensive, but this may be true of most cruises. The biggest let-down, I think, was the entertainment. The bands (Royal Alligators 6/10 and Moccha 3/10) were generally poor and the magician tried hard but could not produce anything more than a 70's style show. Would we sail with DFDS again? Yes, DFDS are pricing at the bottom end of the market, and you get what you pay for. For a first cruise, it was a pleasant experience.
