Advantages
No delay and changeIt was quietIt was cleanDisadvantages
Seats were hardNo sockets and internetNo staffYou can get from Spandau to Berlin quite easily by S-Bahn. It was not full and the noise level was unusually quiet. The seats were relatively hard and the train had no power sockets or internet. There was also no staff, only DB security. However, the train was clean and it went quite comfortably to the main station without changing trains and without delays. However, as it was a nice experience for a commuter train, I rate this journey as good.
Advantages
Super fast train connectionVery favourableNo traffic jamDisadvantages
-The journey from Berlin-Spandau to Berlin Central Station is unbeatably fast by ICE. You reach your destination within 10 minutes and you don't have to stand in traffic jams looking for a parking space. I would always take the train, because buses and cars always cause traffic jams. You can't beat it in terms of price and time.
Advantages
Short journey durationDisadvantages
Not cleanMinor delayI travelled on regional train 10 from Berlin-Spandau to Berlin Hauptbahnhof. The train wasn't really clean and arrived a little late. On the plus side, the journey only took just under 10 minutes. There were enough seats as the train was not completely full. I can't say much about the service as the staff didn't make an appearance. There was no wifi, which is not unusual for this train.
Advantages
Easy transfersComfortNo delayDisadvantages
NoneA very relaxed journey from Berlin-Spandau to Berlin. Changing trains was quite straightforward thanks to the clear signposting. All trains were in very good, well-maintained condition and fortunately also offered excellent comfort. There were no complaints about the service on board either, as the staff were very courteous. There were no delays during the entire journey.
Advantages
CleanPunctualDisadvantages
No beautiful landscapesThe journey from Berlin-Spandau to Berlin Central Station was made by regional train. The train itself set off on time and arrived at the main station without any delays. The journey only took a short 10 minutes. The staff didn't make an appearance, so I can't say anything about the service. The scenery was not that nice along the route. However, the train was clean.
Advantages
Short journey durationPunctualCleanDisadvantages
NoneThe journey from Berlin-Spandau to Berlin was by regional train and was extremely short. It only took just under 10 minutes, which I found positive. The train was tidy and well-maintained, considering that it was travelling around Berlin. I can't say much about the service, as the staff didn't make an appearance. However, the announcements were clear and regular. The train was not late.
Advantages
Free seatsPunctualityCleanDisadvantages
NoneMy journey from Berlin-Spandau to Berlin was by regional train. The journey only took a short 10 minutes. The train arrived on time and also reached Berlin without delay. It was a clean train, with clean toilets. The service staff did not make an appearance, so I can't comment on that. The train was not particularly busy, so I was able to get a comfortable seat.
Advantages
PunctualityTechnically flawless trainDisadvantages
Not clean in the interiorThe journey from Spandau to Berlin was relatively uncomplicated, but the train was not really clean. The floor was sticky and the windows dirty. The train arrived at its destination on time, which I really appreciated. I can't say very much about the service, as the staff hardly appeared at all. From the outside, the train looked neat and tidy and technically sound.
Advantages
Short distanceNormally fast connectionSufficient alternativesDisadvantages
Scarce connectionsI wanted to take the ICE from Berlin-Spandau to Berlin Central Station to catch the connecting train to Ulm. Normally, this is a fast and direct connection. However, due to the ICE's delay, I had to switch to the regional express in order to catch the connecting train in time. The many alternative connections between Spandau and the main station are of course a big plus. Many regional trains now also have wifi. With a journey time of only 10 minutes, there is no need for a toilet.
