Review summary
The servers are what made this trip tolerable. Food was not what you would expect after being on different cruise lines. Suite was not worth the money, you had to turn sideways to get to seat at end of so called balcony that overlooked a walkway rather than the ocean.Only one working elevator in main part of ship, only one working stall in most of the ladies rooms on several floors. Only one working elevator working that went to our floor which was deck 11. Our suite was never cleaned the final cruise day until the steward went in for the turn down. The personnel at the guest service desk must not have wanted to work that position with the attitude they had with the cruisers. This ship needs a serious renovation, the first thing we heard was from an employee about the one elevator working was "what do you expect, this ship is old." Due to a medical emergency we had to turn around and go back to Cayman and was told later that night we would not be going to Cozumel which is why everyone was on the ship and was credited 9.95 per person, that's all they thought it was worth. This is totally unacceptable.

The $ 9.95 is not payment for what the port is worth but a refund because the cruise line did not have to pay for that port.
I have found the food on Carnival to be better then the free dining on NCL. What line had better food ? When you cruise Carnival you get budget price so you have to expect to get what you pay for.
