Review summary

All and all I believe the ship is of its age, wear and tear shows and rust all over the ship is a tail tail sign to what to expect, The service in the ship was good, could have been better. Stay away from the Casio machine as they are all rigged and the Casio staff are very nasty. How they were hired is anyone’s guess.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
Waited hours just to be given a wheel chair on to the ship as everyone else boarded hours before me.

They were very helpful and made every attempt to help. Unfortunately my state room was flooded with back up sewage that made me stay out of the room for three days do to unsanitary conditions that wasn’t corrected.

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5
First two days were ok but I began to notice a smell from the rugs. The last three days was apparent our room got flooded with sewage waste water and carpets were wet from it. Unable to use room during the last three days of my trip, very disappointed. Trip went down fast from there on.

Ship tip

Don’t do it. Pick a newer ship Seek legal advice in dealing lost days and inconvenience

So the guys room gets flooded with sewage and he's a complaining Grinch?? That's brilliant.

Carnival has a great vacation guarantee. They would have flown you back home at the first port for free and refunded 110% of your cruise fare.

On top of a mountain overlooking Whoville I'm guessing
