Food and Dining

Would have liked more dining options and a wider variety on the buffet instead of what seemed like the same menu. But the food was always good.

Service and Staff

"Guru" joked about being offended that I was carrying a Holland America bag for a shore excursion, so he made sure I had a lovely Celebrity Cruise bag in my room when I returned from the excursion, along with a note.
