Review summary

We were aware it was an older, smaller ship however some tings were so tight and not updated. Our room was so small, for 3 people it was tough. The entertainment was great and the Cruise Director, Cam was wonderful. We have never been so disappointed with food on a cruise, several items were inedible. We have cruised several times but this was our first cruise with Carnival and it did not make us want to sail with Carnival in the future.

Food and Dining

Food was mediocre at best. There were several times in the dining room that people in our party had to ask for our items as what they received was inedible. The staff however, were wonderful.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Pool was way too small. 1 hot tub in adult only area was broken the whole time. Floor and tile leading to hot tub in adult only area was insanely hot.

Cabin / Stateroom

The room was smaller than any we have ever stayed in. The pullman bed opened over our bed and then left no room to move around the room. The window was so rusty.
