Review summary

Getting on and off was great. The entertainment was good but everything else was 💯 terrible! The WiFi was the worst! They should use what RC uses!

Embarkation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
Terrible food I have ever experienced. I paid extra for 2 free complimentary special dining and when I tried to make reservations, they were already booked so I couldn’t get in! Buffet was so-so. Never will I cruise Princess again. Wasted money!

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Service was slow and my wife is allergic to all nuts and told our waiter twice. Waited over an hour for the main course and her main course had nuts! Waiter asked to redo her dish and she said no because she didn’t want to wait so we went to get her a slice of pizza! Terrible!

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
Carpet was old and wrinkled. Big chunks of dust underneath the bed. Toilet wouldn’t flush numerous times in our cabin. Paintings all through the ship were peeling. WIFi is the worst!

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
Big chunks of dust underneath the bed. Toilet had always black and malfunctioned many times. WiFi is the worst!

Ship tip

Don’t sail with Princess! WiFi sucks! If you do, don’t upgrade and pay for premium because you won’t get into special dining. If you have allergies to dust and or nuts, bring extra medication and an epi pen. If you’ve cruised Royal Caribbean, you will hate the food on Princess!
