Ok

The room was very nice for where we were. We ate the $25 breakfast buffet one morning. Cold eggs. Couldn’t get cream for coffee. Biscuits and gravy had no sausage. The bed was not good for my husbands back. Overall ok

Bar staff was rude and at one point refused service. Wait staff brought salad and main course at same time, and then blamed it on me. The food overall was terrible.

Checkin was extremely confusing for a pre-cruise stay that was booked through Expedia. At first staff told us that we would have to check out of our room after 1 night on the Expedia reservation, and then check into an identical room the next day as part of our Cruise package. When we arrived late at night there were 2 front desk staff, 1 helping another customer, and another who was doing nothing staring off into space. It was 1:30am and we just needed to get our daughter to sleep.

Very close to airport. Dated furniture and no drinking cups or lotion. Shower while hot was a mist type. Not an issue but not a relaxing shower. Wonderful lobby and nice gift store.

Not a good start. After travelled ng almost 24 hours, arriving at 2 am to be told our room had been given away. We were shuttled to a neighbouring hotel. A definate downgrade. They tried to blame the third party we had booked the room through for their incompetence . Day 1 of a bucket list trip and i can say for I will never travel Princess again ever.
