Celebrity Century Review
Rating by category
Additional details
I had modest expectations for this cruise. From what I had read I expected pretty much "old ship...decent food...Hawaii!" The total experience turned out to be more complex than that.
*The Ship*
Let's get this out of the way first. Century is older (1995?) than most other cruise ships at the major lines, and I think she is the oldest of Celebrity's ships. Yes, there are signs of wear and tear. However, the crew really does keep her tidy and clean. Newer public restrooms were cleaned continuously and often had attendants. Stairways were vacuumed and polished nightly. The public areas were nicely designed and comfortable. The staterooms were clean, comfortable, and well attended. I did not see evidence of blatant neglect even though some areas obviously needed some updating.
Cabin Review
Inside Stateroom
Not bad for an inside room. Good closet space. Some drawers. Bathroom was decent for a cruise ship. Bed reasonably comfortable. Some ppl ask for the egg crate foam but I did not think it was necessary.
I paced the room off and it appeared to be about 180 square feet. About 40% of that was the bath, narrow hall, and closets on the opposite side, with 60% the main area. Small chair and a small table did not get much use as it really was small.
Not deluxe by any sense of the word but functional and clean.
Flat screen TV. Various channels.
