Creator's Key Takeaways

the state rooms can be a little cramped compared to the older ships

the ocean view does feel a little more spacious compared to the interior rooms

I actually got in here and sat and looked out and admired the ocean view on my C days

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring an extra key card to operate lights and electricity without using your stateroom card.
Request two separate beds from your stateroom steward if preferred.
Bring your own conditioner as Carnival does not provide it and their quality is low.
Note that the provided cooler is not a refrigerator.
