Time onboard was overall good, but the stops left a little to be desired. Maybe we got spoiled by previously being to Valletta?

Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Our ship was going directly to dry dock for a fortnight so it’s not really fair to comment on the couple of little issues we found
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
A little on the small side as was the balcony, I would have been disappointed if the weather had been better. But the room was clean and comfortable. Only one chair, so if we wanted to watch a bit of tv we had to hop on the bed and that’s not easy at our age!!
Ship tip
Don’t rely on the Princess app for your drinks it’s not as smooth and quick as advertised. Drinks showed as delivered when they never arrived and some delivery delays were genuinely unacceptable
Although only a few hundred yards to the entrance we had to take a bus from the ship. There is a naval station at this location so that may have been the reason we were not allowed to wander? We took a bus down the coast to a town, but it was a Monday and so half day closing. One ship commented that they hadn’t been this busy on a Monday for years. ( there was also a Holland American cruise ship in port)
Sadly for us there was a town centre marathon on the day we were there, so the place was totally disrupted with excursions mostly cancelled or severely delayed. Also we had a noisy LBGTQ demonstration going on alongside the ship, but it was colourful.
