We have cruised Carnival and Norwegian many times before, but thought we would see what all the hype was about with royal caribbean. First it was more expensive. So i figured more luxurious.  NOPE. infact we got less for the money than we would have on the other cruise lines. For example, Robes are a staple for a balcony cabin. Not on Royal.  We had purchased the premium drink package on the ship. Everything was included except for premium coffee. So i wanted a bottle of water when exiting the ship to go ashore...sorry sir, you have to pay for that....WHAT?  I wanted freshly squeezed juice with my breakfast...sorry sir, you have to pay for that..WHAT?  Johnny Rockets burgers are an UPcharge???  Guys burger joint on carnival is FREE!!!!  Bingo on the other cruise lines is 10 bucks...on royal...35!!!!  

its just the little things.......but it makes or breaks the cruise...sorry

By far the worst Carnival cruise we have ever taken.  The Conquest was run down and needs alot of overhaul.  Service was mediocre and food was not that good,  The ship had run out of alot of goods by the 2nd day of the cruise. Our waiter in the main dining room had the personality of a turd. Not carnivals fault, but the wather was aweful, rained almost everyday and was cold,  Love Carnival, this was our 5th on Carnival and 9th overall, but the worst by far
