This was the 4th time sailing with Princess, found out we were not pampered in the same fashion we had known Princess was known for. Crew members were rude, and not very helpful. Couldn't get a drink around the pool, we had to get up and get our own.
Food in the buffet was repetitious and cold. Hard to find clean tables. Entertainment was terrible, other than the first comedian the first night. Compared to sailing on the sister ship, the Grand Princess, the Grand has this beat. There were not the same activities to keep busy while at sea, and we were constantly told to move out of one chair or another.
Being a 4th time cruiser, they had all information incorrect from the 1st day we arrived, and we were constantly trying to correct our status. Tip should be paid for as earned, not as part of the cruising fee. A lot of the help didn't deserve to be tipped, due to their being so rude, others we tipped extra for their being so helpful.
