I want to preface my review by saying this is only our experience and our critique of Valor.

Embarkation was easy enough considering that the Valor and Victory dock front to back and all passengers are leaving and arriving at the same time which makes for bedlam. Got on the Valor about 2 hours after arriving in the terminal and although we found the Carnival employees wooden if not rude they got us on the ship by 12:30PM no major hassles.

We got to our cabin just to see it,it is on Lido deck 9 cabin 9273 a verandah cabin. Looks good but later we find out the verandah is just under the vacuum intake manifold so it is very noisy, the cabin also faces to the outer hallway that leads from the pool area to the elevators noise all day and night..Our steward is wonderful and helpful NO COMPLAINTS HERE!!!
