Dirty Ship food lacking

I am surprised by how bad the food is and the ship is dirty. The staff are good but seemed to be trained not to give bigger than a child serving for the Buffett. The prime rib a few nights ago turned out to be a few bites of beef. They cut such small bite size pieces I felt bad for the carver. Awful. Just ruined a good prime rib why bother?? This will be my last cruise on Carnival. I really used ...

Background: We had not sailed on Royal Caribbean since before the Covid shutdown (2019) and still had a NextCruise from a cancelled Majesty OTS sailing in 2021. So after a pause in sailing with RCCL, we booked this quick cruise from our homeport here in FL. We arrived at the pier at our prescribed boarding time and were checked in without any problem but with no recognition of being Crown & ...

We have sailed with Norwegian twice before on the Pearl and the Spirit and enjoyed both. The Epic was a huge disappointment. We wanted to experience a larger ship but will not make that choice again. The Epic certainly accommodates a lot more people but it does not match that increase in numbers with amenities on board. There are no lounges to sit indoors like the other ships. Seating is all ...

We had sailed on the Epic twice before in The Haven and therefore decided to trust it with a transatlantic crossing, especially as the restaurant in the Haven had delivered an excellent experience on both occasions Unfortunately this time the restaurant under a brand new maitre 'd and seemingly new kitchen staff was a disaster. Waiting staff tried valiantly to rectify bad management and ...

Ship is too big. Lots of walking and if you're handicapped you're smart to bring a wheelchair or mobility scooter or you will have a lot of trouble. Elevators are slow and people are quick to get pushy. 4,000 passengers is too crowded. Pools are crowded and the actual pool is about the size of a large bathtub. They have large tiled areas around the pool, but no sprayers so the tile will get hot ...

We have always wanted to do a transatlantic cruise and choose this one because it was sailing from a port near us. We went to all the shows, dined in the specialty dining rooms and enjoyed the many ports along the way. However, the ship is laid out so poorly, we have never stood in line as much as we did on this cruise. Most of the venues are much too small for the size of the ship, so if ...

to celebrate 60th birthday, first transatlantic, looked forward to the many days at sea. Service was very very very slow. Room was rarely made up before 3 pm. Restaurant service- took 15 minutes just to get a cola. Always took +1 hour. "Open concept" proved to be very noisy and confusing. Hard to walk through areas when large groups were in a bar. Activities on a sailing where the ...

We chose this cruise as it was repositioning across the Atlantic to Barcelona 1/4-14/4/17. When we arrived at Port Canaveral to embark it was chaotic with porters running round like headless chickens. There were badly organised queues to enter the terminal. Check in was pretty quick but there was no atmosphere from the clerk. Normally it is welcome to ............... etc,none of that, just do ...
