We are relatively new to cruising but have quickly fallen in love with the spoiled lifestyle on the ships. This is our 3rd cruise in 2 years and we are going again in December. We have only gone on Carnival at this point because it seems they have had the best price every time we looked. This ship was in fair condition. It has a lot of damage to the decor in the Tiffany;s eating area on the Lido deck. There was missing tile and the paintings had many sections peeled off. The paint job in general on the ship was in disrepair also.

The workers were all above board and great to deal with except for the Serenity deck towel concierge was rude when I returned 2 towels I had taken when no worker was around (it was within the time they were supposed to be there handing them out).

The food was great as it has been every time. This trip we met a great crew at dinner and decided to eat dinner every night instead of doing the buffet like our other cruises.

It was plenty spacious for the 3 of us. It was well maintained but the huge chip out of the ceramic sink detracted from the mood, it felt like a cheap hotel at times, but who stays in your room on a cruise anyhow.
