Good morning everyone. It does sound like a really disappointing cruise, especially since you've sailed on that shop a few other times. Like you said, it may have been just an "off" cruise. Where did you experience rough seas - around Cabo or the entire time?
Disappointed more than mad BUT angry enough to let them know it ...And I had sailed on the Ruby Princess 3 other cruises before this one that were wonderful so I felt I was speaking from true experience.
Now in my world of there is no such thing as a bad cruise, I have to say my trip was not RUINED just not as relaxing as usual.
Having ordered twin beds and gotten a queen - then having to argue with the steward to fix it is not a good start. Splitting them apart is not hard to do ... he just didn't feel like it! When I called the front desk and asked what I had reserved, they said twins. I said the steward is trying to convince me that my son and I should share the queen because it is more comfortable but I've repeatedly told him no ... Said I am leaving my cabin for an hour and expect it to be fixed by the time I get back...it was.
I've never had bad waiters before but this time, you either couldn't find one or when you ordered something, it never came.... This happened in the Horizon Court as well as the MDR.
Here's what I believe was going on which is why I was extremely disappointed. I think Princess has cut back staff, shortened contracts with staff, and basically told their people - we have a multimillion dollar law suit to pay off and we're going to make it up with subpar food and service. The general morale was really low.
In talking with other longtime cruisers, ironically they all brought up the same thing - did things just seem "off" to anybody else ...
Not really
I knew I could depend on Bonnie to stop in.
I'm lurking a little and heading to bed soon.
Guess everyone went to bed..... All alone out here.....
Hmmmmm? I'm wondering if she yanked the prepaid gratuities too? She sounds mad!!!!!!
We should hear all the dirt when gets home. Now, the one thing is for sure. Her hubby will be getting an ear full before we know anything about it.
He sure will.

Thanks...plane is late so been a long day...glad I wasn't a first time cruiser or I would have been really disappointed ð...Princess better step it up or they will lose this loyal cruiser...everything....food, service, activities, casino was so below my previous experiences I had to double check I was on the right ship.
Oh oh, did you lose a bundle in the casino Debbie?
