Great experience cruising, but simply negative experience with Tampa terminal process and the con artists that work as porters! Makes me wish I had not gone on this cruise!

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Clean, no mold. Only drawbacks, the intercom in the room did not work (could be reason we could not track activities on board). We paid for ocean view, but the room provided only 2 smaller port holes; felt jilted.
The porter took my carry bag, and while I was looking for my checked bag, he helped himself to the contents of my carry bag; i.e., a small covered dish that was inside a small bag containing my earrings. How do I know? After he dropped off my bags and took my $25.00 tip, I noticed the bag was zipped up differently than I had zipped it just prior thereto. I looked and, sure enough, my jewelry dish was missing...I tried to run the man down and he slipped into a door that was locked and I did not have access. By the time I ran around to the open door, that man was nowhere to be found! Could not find anyone to listen to me! Just gone! I am so heartbroken!
As already mentioned always keep your valuables on your person if at all possible while cruising ( or in your cabin safe once you have room access ). Probably too little, too late, but you could attempt to make known the theft with the port police.
