We choose Princess because the previous year we took a Med Cruise to 7 different countries. We enjoyed the Med Cruise except for a couple deceptive expensive tours!!!
For our Alaska Cruise we thought we would save a few dollars and book a room with a view.
I chose the room and room location from the website when booking the room. The room we selected was a regular inside room with a view. It turned out to be a room with two fold down beds on either side of the bed!!! This was not satisfactory since by husband and I both use canes and I was waiting for a total knee replacement and it hurt to be on my knees.
