Celebrity is up to now our favourite cruiseline. After a beautiful cruise a couple of months ago with the Reflection, I was very much looking forward to cruising with the Century. Century did not completely meet my expectations but I had a great time during this cruise.

I have stayed at the Best Western Plus Bayside Inn for three days before boarding the Century. I can highly recommend this hotel for cruisers. It offers good value for money, it has a friendly transfer service from/to the airport and harbour, receptionists are friendly and efficient and location is very convenient, being near to the harbour as well as to the center of San Diego.

Apparently there was another line for passengers with priority access or elite members, but there were no signs to direct those passengers, so many were queuing in the long line. It would be good if signs were available. After the documents were checked there were good indications to where to go, so that check inn went smooth and fast. Read more
