Review summary

Outdated ship, toilets were weird, had to shove the toilet paper down ourselves with a hanger bc it would never flush! Don’t take a poop! It won’t go down on its own. Literally had to manually push everything down as it flushed. Princess Cays was a waste of a day and not that enjoyable. Linens were not clean. Hair and stains present. My comforter had urine stains on it for THREE DAYS before I flipped it over and saw it while making the bed. First and last carnival cruise for sure. This ship is very very old and outdated. So are the slot machines. One pool wasn’t even logical either. Very tiny pool.

I've never encountered any...um..."disposal" issues on any of my Carnival cruises. But I will say that the roar the toilets make when flushed, sounds like the movie "Top Gun", when the jets are taking off from the deck of the carrier! 😳

Oh gross, I heard it was an outdated ship. My grandparents booked it first( first time cruisers) and we booked it to make to a family cruise. I’m hoping it won’t be this bad for us. My first cruise was the Carnival Paradise, it was an older ship as well, but not too bad.
