We just came off this cruise today, and to say the least we were quite disappointed. We have sailed on several other Carnival ships and have had some very nice cruises. Port Canaveral is a great port for embarkation, and that went very smoothly. The ship as compared to others was tastefully decorated. When we got to our cabin, it was the normal carnival ship cabin, lots of storage etc. Our cabin steward had left us, sitting on the floor of the shower and empty shampoo bottle and a bottle of conditioner about 1/3 full, from the previous occupant. Each time we took a shower lasting longer than 3 minutes, the bathroom floor flooded. As the week went on less and less was done in our cabin. The entire week we had 2 towel creatures (they each stayed for a couple of days).

Food service was great, our waiter Jose, was wonderful. Breakfast in the main dining room was always very good and everyone was very pleasant.

This ship was renovated and more cabins added so to accommodate more passengers. Not such a good idea. We were not able to see any shows unless we were to arrive 30 to 45 minutes early so we could get a seat. Only made one comedy show ( arriving 20 min. early) and found 2 seats against the back wall and got to watch it on a TV screen. The casino was packed constantly. Game tables were always full and all the machines full. People were always waiting to be able to play. Overall this was not a very friendly crew. Never saw the captain, he didn't even show up at the welcome back party. The cruise director was very nice, and has a great personality. Would we consider another cruise on this particular ship?? No!!
