Carnival Ecstasy Stateroom with Standard Balcony 8D

The cabin was clean and the staff was great. Just the room was small in comparison to newer ships.

THE BED WAS OK,,,BUT THERE WAS AN ODOR IN THE REST ROOM..IT WAS ALMOST UNBEARABLE AT TIMES..SORRY ABOUT THIS I JUST THOUGHT YOU SHOULD KNOW....

Light over the desk kept going out, like a shortage in the switch.

 My husband hit his head twice in one day getting into bed and I hit my head twice in one day as well.  It made me dizzy with a headache for the whole cruise.  It was a very strong bang.  The reason is that our cabin which was E94 had two bunk beds. One over our head and one over the foot of the bed.  Even when closed the wood extended over the bed over our heads.  We were supposed to have a cabin for three with balcony and my daughter was stranded in New York due to blizzard, but we did meet up in Mexico.  We pushed the bed to the foot so the extra bed was over our feet instead of head and that worked out after two days of banging our heads.  You need to know that this configurations is very dangerous and could cause serious concussions and possibly worse.  This is a lawsuit waiting to happen and should be corrected.  I don't see how this configuration can be legal.  My whole trip caused me to realize that I probably will never sail again on a cruise ship as it is too dangerous.  The space to move around in is so small. I banged my eye against the towel bar in the bathroom.  There were no shelves to place my items and I was always bending down to find things.  Also only one outlet in the room.  The worst stateroom I have ever experienced.

Always get a balcony when you cruise. It was very nice having coffee on our balcony, watching the sun rise, getting a nice ocean breeze whenever we could. The room had maybe two power outlets which was difficult with two phones and two laptops to keep charged. The king bed is two twins pushed together which meant one of us usually ended up in the crack in the middle of the night. Not very comfortable.
