Additional details

Sail Date: Mar 2012

Background: Mid 60's couple, Princess Platinum Members, extensive cruising experience. We were on this particular cruise for a family wedding which went smoothly.

Ship: It has been remodeled, but the primary changes we noticed was that they cut the 17th floor Skywalker Lounge completely off the ship and permanently closed the retractable cover over the pool to save costs.

Service: Adequate, but without many experienced staff. Dinning staff was pleasant, helpful, and overworked, but generally lacked any special touches. It was much like a you would expect in a family restaurant. Cabin attendent was efficient and helpful, but on the first Formal Night I was headed toward the cabin in full dress and he was distributing ice and asked me if I could take my bucket to my room and put it in the frig. for him. That was fine with me, but gives you a nice picture of what I meant by "lacked any special touches".

Cabin Review

Cabin AC

D222, Minisuite, Just as pictured online. No noise or mechanical issues. Balcony on the D level has no cover. Too much sun to use on some days, and people above look down on you. I would not take that level again.
