Overall a good experience. We are Diamond status and the free drinks in the Diamond Lounge really saved us some money. We felt like we got scammed in the Spa and ran up a bill of $300 for extras that we did not expect. That was for a "free" spa that was given to us by our T/A.

Great service in the MDR. We ate at Chops. It was well-done. The steak not as good as what I can buy at our local grocery store (we live in TX), but still good. I was looking forward to the dessert, and it was ok, but not fantastic.

I thought the pool events were rather blah. Only saw the Cruise Director 3 times. Saturday Night Live show was very good. They had a massive fail in the photo center and we were not able to buy any of our photos. That made me really upset.

Very roomy. Balcony was a good size. Especially liked the clothes closet as it was very large.
We got off in less than an hour. Did not like the long line and I felt that they should have had more crew presence to make sure the line was kept orderly.
Enjoyed your review. Your comments about the upsell in the spa made me laugh. My cruise mate for an upcoming LOS cruise joined me on a Carnival cruise last year. It was his first cruise. We booked massages at the same day/time and exited the massage room at the same time. I have a wonderful deep vintage claw foot tub at home and take tons of baths, so I splurged on ONE bath soak problem as do think they are good for ache relief. My friend exited carrying two HUGE shopping bags of spa products! And he doesn't even take baths!
