Someone asked about beds and comfort level. I was a bit worried because there are a lot posts about how hard they are and needing toppers which I had not requested in advance. However, DH and I found them very comfortable, even a little on the soft side. I am a bit of an insomniac and I slept very well all week. I guess every one has different tolerances.

Had a great week even if the weather wasn't our best friend.:p

Princess actually replaced beds fleetwide a few years ago (may even have been introduced on Crown in 2006, but don't quote me on that). I found the beds similar to the Carnival comfort beds, not surprising given the sister line status. I could see them being a little soft for some, but it's sort of inline with the cruise ship as womb....
