We had not cruised with Celebrity before and a couple of things I really liked were the two speakers/lectures. We're not so much into the trivia games, etc. and enjoyed having other options (Cathy Ace was really fun to listen to). We also liked the lack of ongoing announcements. My husband enjoyed having good cycling classes and with so many sea days, that worked well for him - I got to enjoy breakfast in bed, which was my idea of fun (we spent 5 1/2 weeks cycling Ireland this summer, so I figured I deserved being pampered a bit). We used the paper room service menus since we needed fruit, not just juice - the interactive menu was pretty simple. Grapefruit came as requested every day. I also got bananas as requested, but then I noticed that bananas were not available on the ship after just a few days - even though we were in the part of the world that grows them.
We enjoyed the buffet for breakfast and lunch and mid-afternoon snack - especially the carving station and the pasta bar - generally the food was good on the ship - not spectacular, but generally good and cooked as requested. Since my husband has to be on a low carb diet, he's always hoping for a few more sugar free items. There was always one no added sugar item, but it generally included white flour dough, so really not low carb at all - he'd get several and eat the filling. He'd have two meat courses, but rarely could eat the other items (lots of potatoes,rice and carrots). Our waiter, Jorge, was great - he explained that he needed to bring the plates as presented from the kitchen, but would then piecemeal a plate as needed.
One thing we really had an issue with was coffee - first, we've been used to free cappuccino with breakfast and dinner on other cruise lines - only to have an unexpected $9.00 charge when they brought it at our first dinner and requested our card. The coffee in the buffet was actually pretty good, but except in the morning it was almost impossible to find HOT coffee. We really enjoy a cup of coffee and a little snack in the afternoon, but it got old having to search all the coffee stations to find one that might be hot enough to drink.
Being low and in the center was helpful when we were in rough water. The large, round window was nice. Noise from the crew quarters was a little irritating, but nothing I chose to complain about. These cabins are a little smaller than on some other ships, but adequate. A bit larger couch would be nice (single bed pullout). This cabin would be way too small for 3 adults.
