We were sailing as a family group of 7. Myself and BFF Jeannine (40 somethings), our two adult (19 & 20 yo) daughters, Jeannine's mom (65) and my dad and his girlfriend (70+)
Let's start from the beginning:
We spent the night at the Doubletree San Pedro. Excellent stay, free breakfast and free shuttle to the port,(make sure you reserve your time as soon as you arrive) and free parking for duration of the cruise. Rooms were comfy, but if you are handicapped or have mobility issues, make sure you call and request a room near the lobby or elevators, otherwise it can be a VERY long trip down either side of the building. There is only one elevator in the center of the lobby, and it gets busy, and again, long schlep if your room is at one of the far ends.
Great location, fairly quiet, balcony was awesome. As with most cruise ships, the shower was on the smaller side.
