Reliable fast safeDisadvantages
I have not had any negative experiencesThe train connection from Bensheim to Darmstadt was very pleasant and went very smoothly. I was able to book my ticket online and print it out at home without any problems. The train arrived and departed very punctually, the train was very clean, the floor and windows had been freshly cleaned, the seats were very soft and comfortable. The toilets were clean and well maintained, there was nothing missing. Accessibility was a given, there were lifts and wide doors for people with mobility impairments. The bistro offered a wide range of snacks and drinks. I really liked this train connection as it was very varied.
