Introduction

Although it was a fairly enjoyable cruise, there are some things to point out about the state of the Cariibbean Princess and the demoralized state of some of the crew.

Embarkation

Cabin Review

The cabin was decent, meeting our needs. The balcony that came with our room helped. There are two 120 V AC outlets for all your electronic charging needs. i.e. Bring a power bar.The room came with a fridge, chair, ice bucket, two wine glasses, with night tables on each side of the bed. The TV was a compact widescreen LCD TV. There were multiple mirrors in the rooms, which were appreciated when getting ready in the morning. There is a safe in the room, which uses a 4-digit code of your choice, as part of a large cupboard-type storage area with a door.The closet area is open, with no doors and a shelf high up, with a fair amount of hangars to hang clothes. However, one of the hangers fell because the screw hook on one of them was defective; it could only hold the lightest piece of clothing. We noticed that it was difficult to get cold water to come out from the bathroom faucet. Setting it to cold produced warm water except early in the morning when it was cold. This was also the case in the shower as the plumbing is connected.We also noticed that one of the two life jackets in the room did not fasten properly due to a broken latch.Our stateroom steward was very courteous, keeping our room clean while we were out and leaving chocolates to cap off each night.
