First time on Princess. Been on Silver Sea, Royal, Celebrity, etc.
Booked a Vista Suite. Great room with wonderful aft view. Upon entering the room, there was a basket of fruit that had to be left over from the cruise before- the bananas were absolutely black. When I called, room service did send another basket. The cabin steward said that our first day was his first day- but that was wrong- he came from another part of the ship. He had no idea of suite benefits such as a pillow menu, or that the room needed shampoo. Needless to say, our first couple of hours were a little chaotic.
Overall we had a good time. BUT, on at sea days, I was on deck to get a chair by 7AM, and often got the last chairs! This is not to say, if you didn't want to sit near a pool there weren't chairs, but the chairs by the pool were packed- and packed early. I know that Princess doesn't use the "no saving chairs rule".
