Review summary

We have cruised 8 times, and have never been on a ship in such horrible conditions as the Carnival Freedom from being Filthy to the ship having broken windows, Rust all over the ship, sharp edges on metal which cut my leg, I honestly cannot think of one good thing on this ship. We will never cruise Carnival again!

First of all the entire cruise our bathroom reeked of Urine and on our floor when you got off the elevator would knock you down with sewage odors!!! I took a video of how filthy our room was, dirt, hair all along the edge of the cabin floor, dust everywhere, cabinets, tv, bathroom. Rust on our balcony and all over the ship. Horrible
