Our Star Princess cruise started off with 2 nights in Buenos Aires on our own. We had no real problems there but it was HOT 95 degrees F. Boarding the Star was a big problem for a lot of people. We were told by Princess not to even go to the cruise terminal till after 4:30 pm so we did and still had about a 45 minute wait and missed the 1st muster drill. Buenos Aires is not a cruise ship friendly port, many people were calling it a nightmare.

Our cabin, E210, was called completely obstructed but it actually had very nice views with just a set of cables in the middle. It was also had a good layout with the open closet and the bathroom sharing a small hallway. It is over the main theater but that noise stopped after the last show and was quiet the rest of the time.
