Selected this cruise primarily for the date & price (plus it went to Cozumel...our favorite!) but was apprehensive after only sailing the larger ships. I was pleasantly surprised and never felt like I was "missing" anything. Were there a few signs of wear & tear on the ship? Yes, but nothing that detracted from my overall experience. What was a bit lacking was the spirit of the crew, with a few notable exceptions. Most all of the crew were satisfactorily doing their jobs but lacked Princess hospitality in my opinion. Enjoyed all of our meals, drinks were different from bar-to-bar. Find one that makes your favorite the way you like & stick there! Ship very clean. International Cafe was wonderful. Didn't go to any shows but saw a great comedian. Loved the dance lessons midday in Club Fusion-great fun with a wonderful instructor. I recommend this ship/cruise to anyone that wants to enjoy the sea with a smaller crowd. Had a really good time.
