Ship Quality

3 out of 5
The Carnival Freedom has quite a few spots that are showing wear and tear. Our room was hot until the last day of our 9 day cruise. After a day of sun, I needed cool and couldn’t get it in the room. There was also a chemical smell quite frequently up and down the hall like they were spraying for something.
