The menu was terrible. Repeat dishes on multiple nights. Service was terrible. Had to ask cabin steward to clean mirrors not cleaned between cruises. Found bed last night with comforter pulled up and straightened but bed had not actually been made up. Had a tremendously rude head server in the dining room. Quote when she first came to the table we asked how are you she said "extremely busy" ...
Overall, this cruise had it's Pros and Cons
The pro's included an excellent specialty steakhouse restaurant called Farenheight 555. Of course Guy's Hamburgers are always good. Our room attendant was excellent, and most of the staff were very friendly. We also enjoyed some trivia games and "Deal or No Deal." The Fitness center was the finest I have ever sceen on a Cruise ship. Overall the ship ...
We chose this cruise due to itinerary.
Boarding the ship in Rome was seamless and we were on board really quickly.
Stateroom:
Our first impression it was dated but functional however when we returned later that night to discover it was freezing cold and was told while there is a thermostat on the wall it doesn’t work and we had no control over the room temperature! I was freezing and ...
We just completed the 16 day transatlantic aboard the Carnival Dream, Carnival's newest ship. Overall the cruise was ok but nothing to write rave reviews about.
Embarkation was smooth and easy with no difficulties. Our embarkation was in the city of Civitavecchia about two and half hours from the city of Rome.
The staterooms are the same as other Carnival ships with the same amenities although ...
I embarked on the Carnival dream out of Rome to New York City. I left Oct 26 arrived Nov. 12th. This is my ninth cruise with four previous lines. Carnival was the fifth. For the cost of the cruise, my expectations met the mark. I will explain the flaws which many posters are 100% correct. As for embarkation, easy download fun pass your on. Let me start with the pools. (1) Very small I mean small. ...
Having cruised before but never with Carnival, we had high expectations of the cruiseline and were completely let down.
We were travelling with our toddler son from half way round the world and chose this cruiseline because of the reputation of 'family friendly' and childcare facilities onboard. Once there, we discovered there were only a dozen or so children on board and the average age ...
First, I must say that this is only the second time we have cruised on Carnival.The first time was out of Miami some years ago. Carnival at that time had a reputation for appealing to the masses,rowdy/less discriminating crowd and on that cruise they lived up to their reputation.Enough said,we avoided sailing with them,and cruised many times with other cruise lines. In Oct 2008 we booked a ...

I just returned from my cruise that ended on September 10, 2007. I have been to Europe many times in the past and I have been on several cruise ships. Carnival was the most disappointing thus far.
I flew on Delta through Cincinnati and my seat was extremely comfortable. I had a huge space in front of me where the airline hostess sits on take off and landing. The rest of the time, it was open ...
On May 25 2007 we boarded the Carnival Freedom for a 12 day Mediterranean cruise. We had an interior cabin on the first deck. The room was very nice and comfortable until the banging began. It sounded like your home furnace was backfiring. This occurred every 30 minutes day and night. Needless to say, we didn't sleep the first night. I tried calling someone when I first noticed it happening around ...
