Review summary

The boat was a bit crowded but that just meant you had to adjust your schedule a little. We barely waited in food lines but comedy and the shows were always packed. Lots to do around the boat to keep busy. If you want a sun chair, get one EARLY as they are all gone by about 10am and stay occupied throughout the day. Boat was clean and all the wait staff was extremely friendly.

Had to move because this room was too loud. Carnival took care of us though and moved us to a better stateroom and gave us onboard credit.

If you're within 2-3 decks above the liquid lounge (forward of the elevators) then the music is pretty loud. I could hear it through my pillow. I'd get a cabin either in the stern of the ship or far enough above the lounge so you can't hear/feel it...

The noise level was bad then?

Agree with sun chairs...if Carnival would enforce the 40 minutes rule and make chairs available when not occupied for 40 minutes that would be great
