My husband and I enjoy traveling off season when there were fewer people.

We found a good deal on what we had heard was a great cruise line, and some of the ports were new to us, since we have cruised the area before. Embarkation was pleasant, the lunch buffet was nice. Our cabin was very normal, with less closet space than we would have likes. Jackets stayed on the floor the entire cruise. Our cabin location was very nice, although I never quite understood why 1221 was on the tenth floor. I would say don't bother with Concierge class. We were seldom in our cabin for canape time, and although the chilled wine was nice, we could have bought a bottle of better wine with money saved.

But let me say, we do like to be on the tenth level, so we chose it. I honestly believe our cabin steward and his assistant were the worst I've ever had. As I said, our jackets laid on the floor. All the pillows on the bed looked nice, but where do you put them at night? On the sofa, which then makes it impossible for someone who is not ready to sleep, to sit. In the past, we would leave a t-shirt of "comfy" pants out and dress for the day. When we came back, they would be folded and in the same place. Not here. I have heard Celebrity has great food. I heard wrong. Our Thanksgiving dinner gave us something new to be thankful for... no turkey parts at home. The meal was disgusting, and I'm not a picky eater! I had heartburn or worse every night after dinner (early seating). When we tried to go to the buffet for dinner, that was worse. Seriously....... there were leftover shriveled hot dogs, hamburgers and french fries from the burger bar that had been closed down

1221 was a great location, pretty much center ship, with very little noise
