I love this ship and after taking a cruise with my husband in January 2010, I knew I wanted to take my daughter and two grandchildren. I have taken them, now, on 10 cruises. The first nine were all on Carnival, mainly because of the price and Kids always love Carnival.

We left from Miami on September 29, and returned on October 6. We had great weather, only a little rain on the 6th day in Cozumel (what is new, it always rains when I go there)

This was my 28th cruise in 12 years. I usually stay in the inside cabins because I do not spend much time in the room other than to bathe and sleep. We stayed in 7456, a large inside. It was smaller than Carnival and it showed. We had two beds and a queen sleeper sofa. I thought that would be better than having those bunks hanging off the walls. Not so. It gave about 6 inches between the vanity and bed to walk around to get to the twin beds (which make into a king if you travel with a mate). The bath was nice with the glass door rather than the shower curtain. It was small but efficient.

Large Interior Stateroom

Cabin L

7456 was a large inside. I am so glad I didn't get a regular inside. It would have been fine for 2 adults, but not for 2 adults and 2 teens, or any group of 4. I would spend more and get the family stateroom. This is just too cramped. You cannot walk around the sleeper sofa very easily as it gives about 6 inches from the vanity. The closet is adequate, but bring extra hangers if you like everything hung. THe bathroom is fine, small but adequate and I enjoyed having the glass door on the shower. It was quiet and I was afraid it would not be because it is right across from the web room. However, this was October. Maybe it is more noisey in Summer. IT was very close to the elevators, but had walls between so you didn't hear any noise from that. Again, it would have been a good room for two.
