Took our very first cruise ever in July 2013 aboard the Carnival Spirit. A party of 6...getting onboard was a breeze and was greeted by many friendly staff who guided us to our cabin...cabin was fine and I was glad to be in the middle of the ship at the lowest level ...
The ship was very opulent with its decorations and the glass lifts really impressed
Staff could not be faulted apart from one really awful nasty desk dinner hostess who actually got into an altercation with us ....waiters and waitresses-could not do enough. ...The same for cabin staff...food excellent in the empire room ...Lido deck Buffett was excellent too and if u didn't find something u liked there then there's something wrong with you...the deli was fabulous ( try the corned beef and pastrami on rye...to die for)
Had a interior room in the middle of the ship level one....it was excellent ....enough room given the time u spent in there....clean and quiet.....
