This was my eight cruise and first with Costa. It will be my last. Costa caters to Europeans if you are from Canada or the us you don't get the same service.

My cruise started off with Costa switching my room without my knowledge. After going to the customer service department and speaking to someone who could barely speak English. I was informed the ship was sold out and they couldn't do anything about it and It was a mistake. I later found out this was done to accommodate two Italian families that were Costa club member's. No explanation, apology or compensation was given for this.

This turned out to be very minor compared to the rest of the cruise. The food is truly something to be behold. I found myself filling up on burgers and pizza due to the disgusting buffet. My wife and I numerous people that had got sick from the food. I personally witnessed a Costa staff member wiping plates with a dirty cloth and putting them back out for people to use. I asked him about this, he told admitted this is what they are told to do when they run out of plates.
