So to start, I am going to just say that I always be a loyal Carnival Cruiser. The experience that myself, including the people that came with me, was something we will never forget.
We have sailed twice with Royal Caribbean and much enjoyed our trips, so when money was tight we decided to give Carnival a try. Knowing Carnival cruises were cheaper than most, we boarded the ship without knowing what to expect, but we weren't expecting top-notch service. Well let me tell you we were 100% wrong. The moment we stepped onto the ship we were greeted with smiles.
On our cruise we had excellent service. Our waiter was excellent and instantly caught all our names, likes and dislikes, and humor after just one hour in the dining room. Actually, he liked us so much that one of the people with me wanted to have a Carnival mug, but they didn't have enough money, so he took it upon himself to purchase this mug and gave it to her. He was excellent and we will request him next time we are on the Glory. In addition, our room attendant was great. He would always smile when we walked down the hall, he would make sure to ask how are day was, and he knew our names after we told him once. He would make sure our room is clean, but made sure not to touch our personal items that we left laying around. Bar staff was great as well.
I really enjoyed this room. We don't like spending big bucks on fancy rooms since we never spend our time in them except for sleeping. It had enough room for 2 men (the ladies stayed in one state room and the men in another) to make a mess of our crap and still function. I would recommend having more air circulation though as our farts seemed to linger far into the night that we would have to get up, go grab a bite to eat, then return to the room. Sometimes the smell would still be around.
