Well, it is well known on these boards my first experience was pretty negative on a Princess ship...BUT and the most positive part was the fact they have washing machines, dryers and that "dirty word"..irons....lol The funny part is that most of the people I met in the laundry were....men..the husbands.. We were on a two week cruise and I wouldn't tell you what my overage was at the airport...because most people would drum me off all the boards...lol.
