This is our 5th cruise on Princess and we were delighted as usual. We did find that there were some areas on the ship where the carpet was worn. The stairways and in front of the DiVinci Dining Room were particularily bad. The ship is gorgeous and a simple issue like carpet should be looked after.
Everything else looked great.
Our stateroom was beautiful. Clean and large and our cabin attendant was excellent. He immediately learned our names and addressed us by name each and every time we saw him. What a fabulous personal touch. We were impressed!!
We had a mini suite on the Dolphin deck and it was great. Lots of room, lots of storage for clothing and stuff. A huge(by cruise ship standards) washroom!!! Had an extended balcony. Lots of room but lacked privacy because there are no balconies over head. Also, meant we got wet when it rained but these disadvantages were far out weighed by the extra room on the balcony. We comfortably had four chairs and a table on it. We were cruising with friends and the stateroom attendant opened the divider between our balconies so we could visit back and forth easily. It was great! We were really spoiled with this stateroom. May never be able to go back to a standard stateroom again.
