Traveled with children

The ship is looking a little dated, compared to the Ruby we previously sailed with, but still an amazing 14 days on the Med. We had an inside cabin on Lido deck, which was a first for us, but it worked out well although I love a good book on the balcony. Food was ok in the main dining room, but with a child, we preferred to eat in the buffet areas. There were about 500 children on board due to English summer hols, so it was crammed in the pools, but we expected that. Biggest complaint was there were no staff keeping watch at the pools - as we have found on most cruises - so there was lots of kids jumping in, eating and drinking in the pool, and nothing was said. Also in evenings, crowds of teens spoiled movies under the stars by being noisy and just being typical teens. There wasn't a parent or staff member to have a quiet word and ask them to keep it down, or go to another part of the ship. These are minor gripes tho, we boarded in Southampton and were inside our cabin by midday. Amazing. Altogether, a great cruise and would be happy to sail Princess again.

Twin beds, typical inside room. Plenty of hanging space, and on the same level as pools and buffet, so ideal for those with walking difficulties who hate the stairs. My 83-year-old dad loved it.
