There were a lot of children on our ship and they were all over the place running around. Also, the ship was kind of large so at times it felt a little crowded. Overall I had a pretty ok experience and our dining room staff was amazing.
Our Stateroom was not in the best place, even though we had an ocean-view. We heard constant banging especially at night... like metal on metal below.
I would also not recommend going through a 3rd party. I would book directly with Carnival and not an airline, etc. The 3rd party booking made it challenging to get information from Carnival, they seemed to be out of the loop and not able to provide details and and answer questions we had before we set sail.
the "fun ship"? debatable.

Ship Quality
3 out of 5
Layout was a little weird, especially when we realized that we had to use a special set of elevators to get to our dining room. The ship is also kind of dated.
Cabin / Stateroom
2 out of 5
Rooms are dated, but our room was a great size, staff attended to our room twice a day. Our location wasn't ideal. We felt a lot of the rocking and shaking and since we were at the bottom of the ship we heard a lot of the clanking/mechanical noise from below.
Ship tip
It is a dated ship, so not as aesthetically pleasing as some of the more modern ships.
Beautiful place. My group of friends and I did a beach excursion that included transportation, open bar, tequila tasting, and an all you can eat buffet.
