Review summary

Old ship. I never been on carnival before. Wouldn't do again. Other carnival people said it was just that ship. That there 7 days cruise are better. Not willing to take the chance. Was not any cheaper than our celebrity cruise then you add everything up. Was disappointed in boat. Our company was great and had a good time. Also smelled weed all the time on 7 floor. Very strong ordor

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
Old in need of work. A lot of rust and slopply paint job.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
Balcony was rusty glass dirty. Stain and glue where rail met glass. Working on ship heard loud sawing and banging. After a couple of day complained they did stop. Room smallest I ever been in. Bunk was over bed so you couldn't sit up in bed to read or watch TV. We cracked our heads on it many times. Bad design.

Ship tip

Don't go on this ship. Worst cruise I have ever been on. Everyone we met said same thing. Never wrote a bad review before

We had a wonderful time on the Sensation. Sorry you didn’t enjoy your cruise.

You will find that once you add everything up that all cruises are generally the same price, with in $100 usually. For the RCL's, NCL's, Carnival's, etc cruise lines.
