It's funny but we have lived in Vancouver all our lives and this is the first cruise we have taken, go figure!

Boarding in Vancouver was a breeze, once on board we were settled in our Stateroom and set out to find our way around, the Treasure hunt helped a great deal.

The Princess Patter that arrived everyday was a great way for us to find out what was on for the sea days and also what to plan for when we were returning from excursions.

Cabin Review

Cabin EE

Cabin E119 is a stateroom with a rectangle window that looks out over the Starboard side it is well appointed for the size and has an adequate bathroom, plenty of closet space, a cupboard with plenty of shelves and a safe for storage of passport, money etc.It is located over the Princess Theatre, but there was no noise except for the last night before we arrived in Vancouver, but even that was muffled to a point that it didn't bother us.Because it is located forward toward the bow there is very little noise, and when you wake in the morning you wonder if you are even moving.The only complaint that we had was that the bed was like sleeping on a board but a word to our Room steward produced a piece of foam that made it a bit better, but really Princess for a "luxury" ship you might think about pillow top mattresses on your next refit.
