Stayed at Hampton Inn which keeps are car, for a price that's not too bad and All Star Shuttle to ship. 4th cruise on Princess so we have come to expect high standards. We didn't get it on this trip but a lot of people were worse off then us. We didn't have problems with hot and cold water in our cabin but some didn't get it till the end of the cruise. We had no problem getting on or off the ship , our cabin was nice and the steward was nice as was all the help on board.

The problems we encountered were more inconveniences then anything. We didn't understand that after dry dock the water problems although even before we left port on a delay because for a broken water pipe. We, along with a lot of other cruisers walk the deck to "try" and work off our meals, unfortunately they were painting, REALLY?, after dry dock? what's the purpose of dry dock? The smell made it impossible to walk.

They did a nice job on the theatre, to bad other then the dancers the entertainment was sub par, I mean C- we were glad only had a short cruise and saw them twice to make sure they didn't just have an off night. Princess Cay is really nice but if you like the beach wear shoes and if you get a cabana prepare to walk a lot to get anywhere. The main pools where open and there were plenty of chairs. Some smaller pools were closed for whatever. We didn't like Sabatini's being gone but if they feel more money will be made on over priced babbles that's up to them.

good cabin but wish they would hang the flat screen on wall at end of bed instead of corner wear you get a crick in your neck from watching it. Maybe they figure by doing that you need to get a massage>
