Review summary

This ship is beginning to show its age and what can only be a lack of maintence. Stateroom curtains torn, carpet is wearing thin and loose tile in bathrooms. They do their best to keep things clean but the ship is in need of refurbishing. Check in is a breeze. Exiting the ship is a night mare. Very disorganized. I paid extra for concierge class but why? Not anyting special except for an extra high price. Rooms are small but pleasantly decorated. Entertanment ranges from fair to utterly laughable. The Celebrity singers and dancers - a talented lot - are in some pretty horrible shows that don't rise about shows you would see at Six Flags. "Classique" is an absolutely mess. "Broadway Spectacular" would be better with more dancing and less over emoting singing. Foods sounds good on paper but is nver served at the proper temperatures. Menus items range from spectacular to horrible. TIP: Pastry look good but have no taste. Breads look different but are made from the same, tasteless dough. WARNING: Unlimited soda plan is $40 per person. Way over priced since you can only use the plan at cetain bars that fill your glass with ice and pour in a little soda.

Ship Quality

I be this once was a spectaular ship but the ocean salt and years of service are beginning to show. Hey Celebrity: It is time to paint, time to replace dirty and torn draperies, and time to replace stained upholstery.

Again, time to fix doors, rehang curtains.

Pros: Ship staff was excellent, beautiful vessel

Cons: Food quality was very unevent. Celebrity desparately needs a new pastry chef.
