Although the ship appeared slightly outdated compared to many of the newer ships in the Carnival fleet, it had all the necessities that we expected. The ocean view cabin with a king bed was clean and adequate size for my wife and I. Although we didn't watch much TV while on board, the sound on the TV was somewhat muted and sometimes difficult to hear. Plenty of storage space for our four pieces of luggage, which we actually had over packed for the trip. We did however bring a hanging cloth shoe and toiletries racks (over the door) that helped out. We were near a laundry room and washed & dried clothes a couple of times on the trip without any problem. The laundry room had an iron & ironing board set up for free use.

Bed and pillows were comfortable. So much so that we spent far more time sleeping than either of us had expected. There were only two minor complaints regarding the cabin... the coat hangers were kind of strange (four hangers hanging off of one hook) and the room had only one electrical outlet that we had to share. Bathroom was adequate size and plenty of water pressure, hot water, towel hooks, etc. No complaints there.

Over all the ship was clean. The staff was friendly, engaging and helpful. The food was not bad. We ate at the grill, pizza and wok stations and the food was good on each occasion. We also ate in Elation dining room and the food was restaurant quality as well. Read more
