We chose this cruise because of the itinerary. We thoroughly enjoyed each and every port we went into. We were not able to get into Cobh due to poor weather conditions. That was a disappointment.
We found the crew to be courteous and helpful. The entertainment was top notch. We hate in several of the dining rooms as well as the specialty dining area. We found the food to be good.
This ship had recently undergone extensive renovations, but we found some areas lacking. Only two washing machines per level and one was out of order on a sea day. Our bathroom drain was extremely slow. Staff attempted to remedy. It would get better, then bad again. Sofa in room was soiled and had a small rip. Tender experience in two ports was controlled chaos. Princess shore excursions are overpriced, so we always book privately.
Enjoyed the extra space of the mini-suite. We have always booked a regular balcony room, but were offered an upgrade this time in lieu of price adjustment due to drop in cruise price after our final payment. As stated before, we had problem with slow bath drain. Also, sofa was torn and soiled. Other than that, we were happy with the accommodations.
