Service and Staff

2 out of 5
Most of the staff was rude. They rushed you and made you fill uncomfortable. I was asking a question at the casino when cashing out and the guy literally said take your 10 and walked off. They would not tell you were to go give you a fan or sea sick med

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
The ship was outdated and not the most clean. It smelt like sewage a lot, and our toilet smelt like pee. The layout was confusing with you having to go down a floor walk across then up ect to get to stuff.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Toilet smelt like pee, balcony dirty and outdated. Wish there was more tv wife was sick left me nothing to do in cabin

Sorry your cruise was not great. We sailed on the Valor last February and are headed on again for a b2b. But they are our last Carnival cruise. Only going since they were paid in full. A b2b on the Mardi Gras did us in…toooooo many people and crazy rude passengers. Then the day we disembarked we sailed on Celebrity…..bye Carnival…hello Celebrity. Give them a try it’s a whole different cruise and food is amazing!

Enjoyed Valor a lot. Appears you did not read the information given to you and read it prior to the cruise plenty of food options and times posted for every day. Believe you will find an adult only pool on the Valor as well. You were told in your information as well as your cabin steward where to get items of need.

Wow you should stay home. Have been on many cruises have never had any crew person be rude to me or talk down to me or push me they have always been kind considerate and willing to help
