All in all, cruise was a 4/5, even with Carnival misplacing my aunt’s luggage for the entire trip. Sort of wish it was less crowded also. Couldn’t really enjoy the pools/spa for this reason.

Didn’t see any shows. Comedy was lacking, except for DJ Cooch. He’s hilarious!!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
All common areas were kept very clean. Cabin could’ve used some elbow grease, dusting of upper shelving, cleaning out of previous cruisers belongings from underneath the sofa.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
As others have said, very very small. No room between balcony curtains and bed. I had to shimmy into bed every night.
