Review summary

The ports and excursions were great.  The ship and rooms were very clean.  The overall moral of the personal was disappointing.  Some crew members even rude at times.   This ships needs help with organization and friendliness.  I have been on many Carnival Cruises and they have been great.  I expected this experience to be even more enjoyable.  I would not recommend this ship at all.

Wow. Reading this a lot from carnival cruisers. I, on the other hand, loathed my cruise with carnival and would never sail with them again. I've done 14 cruises with RC and although not always perfect it's pretty darn close. Worse cruseline ever is Costa for rudeness follows closely by Carnival noise and uncleanliness.

Been on that ship at least 10 times and never have I come across a rude member of staff or unfriendly staff they have gone out of there way to make you feel welcome and nothing has been to much trouble .
