I just go off the Celebrity Century and my experience on the ship was average. Our cabin 1207 was just OK, for the price, I was expecting something a bit more luxurious. The room had the feel of a Motel 6 budget room. The furniture was tired, stained and the marble on the desk was discolored. Definitely not worth the premium price paid for the room. The plus about the room was that this room was not in the bowels of the ship but up at the top. On this particular floor there was a lot pin pong games being played and the kids were shredding the pads on the paddles to pieces.

The food was not good, specially at the Islands Cafe. The burgers were good and the sandwiches on the other side were good too. The food at the MDR were hit and miss. The best two nights were the ones with the rib eye steak and the filet mignon. The New York steak was tough or any other meat anywhere on the ship was just difficult to cut and chew. Minute steak at Islands was like a shoe sole. The pasta sauces were bland, tasteless and watered down. The beef Wellington on the second formal was overcooked and the pastry was doughy, not flaky at all. The lobster looked good but it was way overdone. The Asian Delights was everything else but Asian. The sushi was a joke to say the least with a lot of fake crab being with a couple of exceptions. There were no California rolls, the pizzas were meh, the pasta was bland and tasteless. The food was not good I am afraid to say.

I found that the beverage package was not worth it for us. After counting the amount of drinks that we ordered we didn't spend more than $150.00 vis-a-vis $400.00 paid for the premium beverage package. I did have a chance to have a couple of Margaritas and these were good my wife liked her pina colada. The other premium non-alcoholic drinks were too sweet and not to my liking. Next time no beverage package for us specially if there is water, iced tea and juices for free.

However, on the plus side, the location was a plus near the elevators with easy access to the ship's public areas.
