It is true what they say about the Liberty, you do feel the vibration on most parts of the buffet area, we had to move several times to avoid it. As usual we keep finding things Carnival keep eliminating on their cruises, we found there were no robes on the cabin and had to request them, the few "extras" the bathrooms used to have (basket of items} are gone and now you get two bars of soap.
