Our cruise was all in all a wonderful, memorable time. And an extra shout out to all of the staff that was willing to have a photo taken with a stuffed gnome we brought along to make an "adventure" blog for our then 4yr old grandson, who waited patiently every evening to see "Shanigans" adventure upload to FB

Service and Staff
3 out of 5
Most of the staff were amazing, however our room steward was less then desirable. Took her days to bring us a robe, (we asked for 2 on day 1, finally got just 1 on day 3) We also asked for an extra pillow she told us that carnival does do that. We asked for ice, and never got any.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
This was exceptional
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
We absolutely, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves even though our Stewart was not so friendly
Ship tip
Make sure to take one morning to watch the sun rise, and one evening to watch the sun set! Those 2 were without doubt the most memorable of the entire tip
Very beautiful city, with so much history!
If you get a chance, Visit King Street Cookies (a treat for sure) Also visit Washington Square (which happen to have an art fair at the time we went) and even if you can't go in to any of the museums, you should at least visit "Museum Mile". All of "Downtown" is a must see. Come a day or 2 early and put on your best walking shoes.
Really sux to hear about the room steward,they are the ones who make the days and nights enjoyable when they take the time to ask how your day is going or you come back in the evening and the bed is turned down with chocolate on the pillows and a towel animal sitting there.
