Review summary

This cruise if for those that want a great deal on a cruise and don't necessarily care about an updated ship or care about the internet. For veteran cruisers, this ship will frustrate you because of it's outdated spaces, lack of amenities, crazy design and weirdly dark decor, and if you need the internet at all, it will drive you mad. The main dining room although crazy in decor has good food and the upscale restaurant was amazing. The Cruise Director was great along with the piano bar and main lobby performers

Ship Quality

Cleanliness was ok but this is a WAY outdated ship. Horrible use of spaces with tons of open random seating areas, and hallways. This ship does NOT have the Carnival 2.0 upgrades such as Guy Fieri's Burger Joint, the Rum and Tequila Bar, The Internet speed was 1/3rd that of dial up.

Ship tip

If you want a ship that is updates and/or need good internet, forget this ship. If you don't care about that and want a good cruise for the money than this is your ship.
