I am currently a freshman in college and my roommate put ice cream in our freezer about five months ago. While we were on break, the ice cream somehow melted in our freezer. The melted ice cream has now frozen to the freezer and no one can open the freezer without it smelling terribly! I wanted to know if anyone has suggestions on the best and most painless way to get rid of the smell and clean the freezer.
Thanks so much in advance!!

You're pretty much just going to have to knuckle down and do this.
Remove all the food you want to keep to coolers, if there is any other food. Unplug the freezer.
Put on a mask if you have to. Wait until it gets slushy on the inside. Use warm water and a plastic (NOT metal) putty knife to remove everything from the freezer.
Clean the freezer with warm water and a little dish soap. Be sure to wash the door gasket. Then deodorize by leaving a tray of fresh coffee grounds in the freezer for a few days.
I have used warm water mixed with baking soda , then rinse & dry. 1 quart of water/1 tablespoon baking soda.
