This was our 32nd cruise, 11th time on Princess. We traveled with some family members, one of whom was cruising for the first time, another member celebrating a milestone birthday. We had 2 cabins on Plaza level and a couple on Baja. Plaza level was very convenient for the seniors in our group and also for getting on and off the ship at various ports. I had an outside P301, nice window but cabins are small on Princess although storage was adequate.
The bathrooms are tiny and shower is cramped but we had a great cabin steward Noel who was very attentive.
We stayed one night precruise at the Embassy Suites, pretty basic place
PLAZA 301 good central location, no noise. Small bathroom adequate storage. Easy to get on and off the ship, convenient to dining and the Atrium.
