Review summary

Too too too many people and not enough space. Felt like cattle. Sometimes waited 15 min for elevator as they were all packed like sardines. Elevators super hot with no ventilation. Temperatures around the ship went from extremely hot to freezing …. And on same floor sometimes. Drunk people (I didn’t drink) and they should have refused to serve some people as they had way too much. I was puked on, groped, verbally attacked, etc. Teenagers running up and down halls pounding on doors at midnight, ripping off our Xmas door decorations, screaming on elevators, challenging adults….very sad. We have cruised for 25 years and have never been on a ship this bad. We booked Icon for next Xmas and are canceling. Even our young adult children said they never want to do a cruise again. It was a madhouse and all I kept hearing from others who were not enjoying themselves was that it was a “ship show”.
