Review summary

This was the first cruise for me on Carnival in 11 years and I was very disappointed. I have always had such a wonderful experience with this cruise line. I'm hoping it's not the norm now.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Poor quality at the Lido for food and drink service was very poor unless you go the the bar yourself.

Service and Staff

2 out of 5

Over all poor service, waiters and ship personal were hard to find. Room steward asked me when I arrived if I wanted service to my room and if so, once or twice a day. I am used to them opening and closing the room with out being asked. Seemed as if he didn't want to do it and dirty coffee cups were left in my room after cleaning twice. Overall, nothing near what it's been like in the past.
