the cruise itself was adequate but the service, food, condition of ship were not up to Princess' standards

Review summary
this was our first cruise and we enjoyed ourselves. although we had nothing to compare against, we thought some of the food, condition of this ship (carribbean princess) were suspect (which was later confirmed by conversations with very seasoned ELITE Princess cruisers who said they love the Princess cruise line but felt that this particular cruise was not done to their normal high standards...the service seemed distracted (from waitstaff to housekeeping to ship maintenance). we were hoping for a 4 star cruise and felt this one fell short. although disappointed that we missed out on the known "Princess high level of service), we're open to try another of their cruises...just not on the Carribbean Princess.
