Review summary

Was very disappointed in this ships condition for the price that we paid, and the food. The only reason the rating is a 3.1 is because of the ports of call, otherwise it would be 1.5 or lower. Again very disappointed!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Carnival's food has gone down hill. in the dining room and the buffet. I remember back when I couldn't wait to go to the dining room for the meals, because they were so good.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Pool service was hard to find, most of the time you had to go to the bar yourself. Dining room staff must have been new or training, a long wait for refills and for your meal. Room steward was great, doing the best with what he had.

Ship Quality

1 out of 5

One of the dirtiest ships I have ever been on!

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5

Their was a lot of little things broken,curtains,lamps,chairs but the biggest thing was a hole in our shower floor. It was covered with blue duck tape and a rubber mat but every time you got in the shower you could feel the floor squishing and moving.

I was on it in May 2017. We enjoyed everything. The food and the entertainment. Guy burger was the best. We had no problems with our food in the dinner area. Our rooms was fine.
