We chose the California Coastal 5 day cruise from Vancouver to Los Angeles which stopped in Victoria and San Francisco.
After reading reviews on Cruise critic we booked the shows and restaurants we wanted to see before boarding.Boarding was quick and efficient as was disembarking.
There was an issue in San Francisco because it was the first US port of entry with immigration.Everybody had to get off the ship and go through immigration. They started with cabins on Deck 15 and worked their way down to Deck 7. That process started at 8.20 am and as we were on Deck 8 we did not get off the ship until 1.30 pm, If you had booked excursions you were let off at 9 am.
Smaller than other mini suites we have stayed in but the size of the bathroom more than made up for that with its double sink and walk in shower (No tub).
Even though it was smaller than other mini suites they still provided ample storage. The suit cases would fit under the bed.
Took a taxi into town ($10.00) and just wandered around the many shops Lots of restaurants to choose from.
