Carnival Fantasy Review

Additional details
This was our thirty-first cruise and our fifteenth or so on Carnival. We knew what to expect.
We stayed at the Quality Inn and Suites in Mt. Pleasant, SC, a fifteen minute ride from the pier in Charleston, and participated in their Park and Cruise deal. We returned for two extra nights. It's a grea5t hotel adjacent to many of the Patriot Point museums and the restaurants in Mt. Pleasant. Had good on-time limo trips to and from the pier, courtesy of the hotel.
Embarkation was smooth and easy with priority boarding thanks to our frequent cruiser status. Took maybe ten minutes to get aboard.
Cabin Review
Our cabin had been unassigned until boarding and we drew the short straw- We got cabin 224 on the Upper deck, port side as far aft as possible. It was roomy enough with quite adequate storage fro hanging and folded clothes. It was a bit shaky right over the engines during maneuvering, but otherwise OK- The window was large, but the curtains were equipped with a "black-out" curtain on only one side. Great steward service- he called me by name every time he saw me- anywhere. Always select your cabin in advance.
