I was ready to get off after a week of crowds and clutter. We had a good time because we went with friends. This was our first Carnival cruise. Booked another next year on a smaller ship but only because our friends were going. Not a fan of Carnival cruise line.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
It was okay. Took longer than most.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
The food in the main dining room was okay. Chibang, Cucina, and Pig and Anchor we're food with good service. Main dining room was okay. Condiment stations at Blue Iguana and Chicken Place were downright disgusting. Messy, empty, and never cleaned up or refilled.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Pools were always sparkling clean.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Center stage shows were great if you were able to see them. Not enough seating and many, many people. We found watching them rehearse in the morning was much more comfortable but unfortunately did not have the stage effects. Comedians we're funny. Eden, the piano man was very talented although he only seemed to cater to those around the piano.
Children's Programs
No children.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The staff was doing the best they could. I feel this ship was understaffed and there were long waits at bars and restaurants.
Ship Quality
2 out of 5
Common areas were kept somewhat clean, but tables at venues were left with dirty glasses for hours.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Nice double closets. Steward was very nice. Our big adjustment was room steward service once a day.. pick morning or evening. We are definitely used to twice a day.
