Carnival Conquest Review

Additional details
Overall a good cruise. Embarkation was a breeze, only took about 30 minutes max from unloading to walking on board. Waited until about 12:15 to show up, and at looked like most folks had already gotten on board and the lines were short.
Enjoyed the Punchliner comedy club (especially Mike E Winfield) and the deck top movies. Lots of room to sit under the stars.
Biggest disappointment was the overall food. Just average what I expect on a cruise, especially when compared to my last cruise on NCL. Very few options for low sugar desserts, and I asked our waiter in the Monet dining room three times if they had low sugar ice cream...said he would check but I never heard back (NCL had it every night). Also no options for food after 11pm but pizza. Would have liked to have a burger or salad after all the shows, but you were out of luck except for the pizza line.
Cabin Review
Balcony
Smaller than what I expected, but didn't spend much time except to shower and sleep. Spend extra money for the balcony cabin, but could smell way too much cigarette smoke on the balcony. Like the rest of the ship the cabins could stand new carpet and general cleaning upgrades...balconies were dirty too.
