Golden Princess Review

Additional details
We have never been on a cruise and to celebrate our 30th anniversary, we booked this Alaska cruise on the Golden Princess based on date constraints and desiring to go round trip Seattle.
The cruise experience was better than we expected! We were on the second week of the Golden Princess cruises to Alaska for the season.
Embarkation in Seattle was a bit harried and had long lines. The people helping to organize people were friendly and we were excited and happy to be going so we weren't too bothered by the wait. I do understand they are processing many people all at once.
Cabin Review
The mini-suite was spacious and comfortable with plenty of storage. The bathroom was larger than I expected, as was the closet area. I wished that the safe had been larger. We had a fridge and 2 flat screen TVs. The bed was comfortable and the linens were nice. We enjoyed our balcony, especially being in Alaska. It did not have a top on it as our deck jutted out from the one above. We actually liked the open feel of it. The cabin was practically soundproof and we hear no noise from either side and rarely in the hallway. It is in the middle of the ship so we definitely could feel a difference in the motion than in the extreme front or back of the ship. We would book a mini-suite again! Especially for the Alaska cruise!
