From start to end, the cruise was amazing.
My partner and I were looking to get away and see as much as possible with time constraints as she's a student and has a son back at home. While looking for dates and locations, this itinerary couldn't be beat! I have traveled previously on Princess before and this was my second cruise. My partner though, had never traveled like this before.
Flying on points and traveling from Canada, we did not have the opportunity to fly the day before. We stayed at the Best Western Airport Hotel in TO, with free parking and shuttle service to be at the airport (all included for a very reasonable price) for 04:20. Without any problems or delays, we made it to the airport without any problems. (Parking alone at Pearson Airport would have been an additional $200-$300.
The room was a little small however when you're not spending much time in it, it doesn't really matter. The balcony though, that's the highlight. An enlarged balcony with a lounge chair and 2 chairs and incredible views. The room's decor was a cross between the pink era of the 1980's and Miami. It was clean and nice, and like I've mentioned, not where we spent most of our time. The views with the aft-balcony and aft windows, were breath taking and one of the highlights of the trip. The downfall to having a room in the Aft is the vibration when the ship's engines are in reverse or when pulling into / out of port. Noise and vibrations are the negatives however the views and balcony were worth it.
