Was ok, only clean room once a day vs Royal Caribbean twice a day.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It’s a new ship, layout was different from other ships we’ve been on. It’s really a big ship and was overwhelming at first because of its design. But we love it.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Loved this cabin. Was like midship and everything was close to get to. If we go on again, would love to have same cabin again.

Ship tip

It’s really a great ship, we had a great time, was the first cruise on Carnival. We cruised Royal Caribbean and Princess and are impressed with this cruise.
