Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Dining room food needs help. best thing on the menu was the appetizers. The buffet was limited and not very appealing.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Not much activity to do on the ship except trivia.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Stage shows were good. I always enjoy carnival comedy club but didn't think the comedians were as good as usual.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All of the staff was very friendly and helpful. Dining room waiters were very good. Room steward was great.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

I enjoyed the small ship. Everything was very convenient and easy to navigate. The ship was very clean and well maintained for her age.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Room was very clean and well maintained for an older ship refrigerator did not work.

Ship tip

Good cruise for first time Cruisers but if you're spoiled by the larger ships might not enjoy it as much.
