Review summary

I had been looking forward to this cruise for several years. But after the cruise was over, I can say, I was extremely disappointed. The food was horrible, no choices. No tasthe dining staff was fantastic. The room store was very poor they ripped you off. Everywhere they can they share huge choices for internet with no options for more than 1 day? They charge for every item on the room service menu. This is the first time I've ever experienced that I'm in a cruise and I am taking many. I'm different cruise lines. It seems like they go out of their way to rip you up. To that cruise on this s***

Kevin was okay, but the bathroom was very small.

Ship tip

Do not SAIL on the Mardi Gras. You will be very disappointed in the food and the entertainment. They rip you off bedtime everywhere, from room service to the cost of internet.

How can you critique something when you can't even review your post. Lol please use spell check and look over it a few times before posting.

I had an excellent time when I cruised on the Mardi Gras. There are more food options on that ship than most Carnival ships. Sorry you had a bad time, but I've always had a great time on Carnival ships.

No food options on the Mardi Gras? There are plenty of food selections available!
