The journey with Deutsche Bahn was pleasant as I travelled on an ICE train. The station in Greifswald was clean. On the train itself, I had a seat in 2nd class. The train was about 80% full. The toilets were a bit dirty and the train attendant was very friendly. I would choose the train again, even though there was a bit of chaos at Berlin Central Station as it was Friday afternoon. Many commuters are travelling on this day and the trains are a little overcrowded, sometimes. The wifi worked perfectly on the ICE.
