Sorry you had a bad experience. I think that smell would affect my enjoyment of the entire cruise if it was that bad, seems to be a common complaint with Carnival these days.

Hate you had such a bad experience. Carnival will likely never see this review. I recommend contacting carnival direct at 800-764-7419 option 3

Thanks for the review. My daughter was on the Valor two weeks ago and said the sewage smell was very noticeable. This seems to be a complaint on a lot of carnival ships currently. I am guessing they must have changed the process or chemicals they use to treat the sewage and it is not working as well as what they used before.
