Took this cruise because of the islands,8 days also friends asked me to go with them, totaled of 6 of us. I booked a inside deck 9 cabin 9352 near the elevators no issues with noise and very close to lido market, nice to have the option to have the room cleaned once or twice which my choice was to have it done at night. So a 800 million ship and you can not get to point a to point b easy, elevators are awful, layout confusing, no signage telling you were bathrooms are or pigs and achor ,and if you want to go to a show in the limelight lounge you stand in line which then means the hallway gets very crowded with people. the stores are joke if you forget your razor they were priced at $19.00 for one. The bars are slow even if you tip, there are so understaffed for the amount of passengers, then the run out of beer and don't replace it but you can get the same beer at other bars. very confusing as to who is not restocking all the bars. Food in the horizon restaurant was ok but nothing special. The Italian restaurant and the steak house was outstanding. The casino was terrible some dealers were funny others were rude as well as some of the pit bosses, attitude make or breaks any business.

Carnivals decision to remove some tv channels means you cannot keep up with concurrent news, strange in this day and age, The ship had a lot to offer but with not enough staff to help everyone there are a lot of delays.
