Review summary

Overall the cruise was ok. Incorrect charges to our room was a huge let down, the meals were subpar from past experiences. Hoping for better results next time.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Simple, fast and painless.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

Food was mediocre. Main dining was much better our prior 6 cruises with Princess. Prime Rib night was horrible. Very thin, fatty, and something I wouldnt feed to my dog. Was not impressed. All other meals were subpar in our opinion. Not sure if this is cost cutting from Covid but wasn't happy.

Ship tip

Keep an eye on room charges. Even with drink packages we were inadvertently charged several times for items that should be included, so we had to get the charges removed.

Very disappointed to hear the food went downhill this will be my first cruise on Princess after 11 on Carnival and the reason I switched was because the food on Carnival went downhill also

Glad you kept an eye on the charges, unlike some reviewers. Hope your next trip has better food.
