Additional details
11th cruise.2nd w/ Princess on same ship/itinerary as 2008.Arrived Ft.Lauderdale 1 day early.Heavy rains that night and steady drizzle day of embarkation.Arrived port 11 am and took about 1 hr to board w/ no problems.Ship recently refurbished in Dec so carpets etc looked great.
Cabin: tiniest shower ever but great amt of storage.Requested eggcrate already on bed.Deck 10 forward and cabin was quiet and comfortable.
Dining: food good in general.Chose anytime dining.Slow service most nights as we ate early (5:30) nightly.We were unable to obtain a window seat as EVERY 2 person table w/ window was RESERVED?? by back to back cruisers in the ANYTIME dining room.We did not eat in any surcharge restaurants but did eat in Horizon court and Caribe for breakfast/lunch (very disorganized) but good variety and generally good quality.Princess offers sushi/tappas but only if alcoholic beverage is purchased?Great pizza and grill items.
Cabin Review
Inside cabin deck 10 forward C237.Tiniest shower ever.Very small bathroom in general.Huge amt of storage for clothing.Decent t.v. w/ adequate stations.No in room ability to check menu's or billing info like on many other ships. Nice quiet area w/ easy access to elevators/stairs.Requested eggcrate mattress was on bed when we arrived.
