The Second (revenue) Voyage of the Silhouette---Hmm Service?

Additional details
We were on a charter of the ship for Atlantis Events August 1-10, 2011.
We were so looking forward to this cruise and had VERY high expectations for the "fancy new ship" of the Celebrity fleet.
While the ship is lovely. Had all that "new ship smell". Great art collection and all that stuff you expect from a Celebrity ship, overall my expectations were not exceeded.....in fact overall I would say, disappointed. For the price point we paid for this cruise and Celebrity's reputation, I would expect better, much better. (mind you we still had a great vacation)
Cabin Review
Ocean View 7
All of the cabins seem to share a "common wall" noise issue. Any bang, drop, footstep, door slam anywhere above, below, near your room reverberates in your room. Insulation between cabins must have been cut in the budget. I would avoid anything directly above/below the pool or entertainment venues.
Our cabin location was well located for most things. We had friends at the back of the ship, their comment was it is far from the elevators. This ship only has elevators mid ship and towards the front.
We had the bed by the window layout/inset doorway (which allows rooms to be joined, but also allows the door to open out rather than in which makes more room in the cabin) both of which we liked. Our friends had the couch by the window layout which made having people over difficult.
