Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival actually cleaned the room while we were at breakfast this only 9917 this is wild look at this our beds are made

MC would never literally they never came and cleaned our room this is so nice we went to breakfast we weren't even gone that long

I will say while we are breakfast one of the Cruise Critic reviews mentioned that people walk around and try to sell you stuff

I got beef with Carnival and their entertainment listen I know I said in earlier Vlogs that their entertainment is better on the ship

Creator's Tips & Advice

Reserve dining via the app to avoid sales pitches during meals
Avoid Mojitos from the splash pad bar; try Pina Coladas from the main bar instead
