Cabin: Balcony

Chose cruise because of the location of stops and Princess's reputation. This was my fifth trip with Princess.

The ship was great looking, with very modern decor. However, appeared to be too large (too many people on board) for Princess to manage properly. Too much disorganization and confusion. Too much waiting in lines (getting on and off ship, plus use of facilities onboard).

Food not very good---especially the premium dining such as Crown Grill. The steak was a horrible disappointment and the comfort of eating like eating in a bar. I would have been more at home in tee shirt and jeans. Definitely not worth the extra $29 per person extra cost.

Typical. Not anything special. It was kept clean and orderly.

Port Reviews

Boston

STUCK IN TRAFFIC ALL DAY. NO TIME TO SEE SIGHTS.

Halifax

Driver messed up and dropped us off at wrong place. Forgot to come back. Lost couple hours and had to walk to pickup.

Sydney (Nova Scotia)

Not enough time in port to see enough of Sydney. What we did see was great.

Charlottetown (Prince Edward Island)

Saw what we wanted.

Quebec City

Raining, so limited our walking.
