Sail Date: Jun 2013

Went on Star Princess Alaska inside passage on June 29 out of Seattle. While my last cruise was on Oasis of the Sea in Sep 2012 I knew not to expect the first class service; but Star Princess took the cake for the worst and most boring cruise I have ever taken.

Transfers to the port were well organized and getting on the ship was over all good. I had a mini-suite with a balcony which was a nice size; disappointed with the balcony as it looked like it should have been powerwashed and there was a constant banging from the partition at night and banging from the cabin doors on the floor above and below.

Food was the worst I have ever had on any ship as it was never hot mostly luke warm, poor variety and it looked like it was frozen. Only ate at the dining room twice once for breakfast -- we had to ask them if the pancakes were frozen as they were barely warm and all looked the exact same) ate for a lunch -- my friend ordered a cheeseburg and fries and I ordered lasgna--both were cold and her hamburg came with a piece of cheese slapped on needless to say it was sent back to heat the cheese up and then they poured the ketchup on the hamburg and portion it on the plate for the fries. You also had to wait for the drinks to be ordered and delivered to your table at the buffet court--beware of the toddler glass they put your orange juice in -- you must tell them you want a large (which is regular size glass). They had poor variety at the buffet and my time dining needless to say we were not going to spend money on the specialty restaurants and be disappointed. The tuna sandwich at the cafe was good as you could get it heated. Beware of the drinks as I ordered a $9.14 long island ice tea which was horribly watered down along with my friend who got a cosmo.

Cabin Review

Cabin AA

Mini-suite with balcony D223 -- bathroom nice size with tub, a lot of closet space and drawer space, beds uncomfortable and you only get a comforter, two television but one remote, limited channel selection. No clock in room. Balcony nice size with table and reclining chairs and foot rests but needed to be power washed as it was not the cleanest. Constant banging from the partition between cabins. Cabin doors needed to be slammed in order to close so you will hear that all night long on our floor and the floor above and below. Had trouble getting the key to work in the door on the first attempt most times.
