This was our 25th cruise; 7th on Princess. We liked it so much that we are going switch ‘favorite’ over to Princess from our previous two favorites…so many ‘best-evers.’
Positives:
BOARDING: Smoothest and fastest compared to the previous cruises, largely because of extra security clearing stations.
The Medallion unlocked the door when we were approaching the stateroom; how handy!
With the heavy-duty curtains between the ‘bedroom’ and the sitting area, the room could effectively be converted into two rooms. This was especially useful if one of us wanted to stay up and watch TV.
The bedding, pillows, and comforters were outstanding!
Television: Two! Flatscreen TVs, one facing the bed and one facing the sofa; quite versatile.
Recent On-Demand, free movies and TV shows; perfect to fall asleep to.
The bathtub was the largest and best ever, and it didn’t leak (unlike other ‘upscale’ cruise ships we’ve been on); perfect for Epsom salt baths at night.
Energy-saving lights!
Lots of storage.
The tub drained well, instead of the typical slow, noisy gurgle found on many ships.
