Silhouette shiny but not Celebrity at it's best

Additional details
I have been a Celebrity cruiser since their inception and it has always been my preferred cruise line. I was happy to support them putting a brand new ship in the Northeast, but I am not going to be running to book them again in the near future.
Embarkation: Many comments have been made before about Cape Liberty so I won't go into much detail. It was a little chilly wait, but we probably went through security and checked in within a 1/2 hour which is still fine in my book. I have dealt with much worse.
Ship: Ship of course was spotless being just a few months old. I am still not a huge fan of the S class design. I feel that there is a lot of wasted space on the ship. Prime space is taken up by speciality restaurants that are mainly utilized for dinner only. Bistro on 5 and Cellarmasters have limited use and take up large valuable areas in the lobby areas that could be put to better use since there isn't much bar space in the center lobby areas. They were both ghost areas at night. Their new concept on the Lawn Club - the Porch never had anyone in it anytime I went by it during morning or afternoon.
Cabin Review
Concierge Class 3
Relatively quiet cabin. Limited storage like all cabins. Across from a hallway to inside cabins so it was a little busier outside the room than usual. The doors are very heavy and you are jolted when your neighbor goes in and out of their cabin, but this would apply to all cabins. TVs go on with a very high volume so you need to immediately turn the volume if it is late at night or early in the morning.
