I travelled from Bielefeld to Hanover on the IC train. The journey wasn't too bad, but I thought it was a bit of a shame that the bistro was closed that day. Otherwise, the train was in a clean and hygienic condition. Even the toilets were clean. There were no delays, if I remember correctly. In addition, the staff were always friendly. I can recommend this connection.

Disadvantages

IconSomewhat unclean
Unfortunately, this time I had to wait 20 minutes for my train connection as it was delayed without explanation. Nothing was announced, the train was reasonably okay, there weren't too many free seats and in my opinion the cleanliness was neglected. The toilet facilities were okay, unfortunately there was no soap. What was positive was the wifi connection, which was stable and very fast throughout the journey. Unfortunately, the train staff were unable to help me, so I had to do some research on the internet. Unfortunately, I reached my destination late.

The cleanliness and hygiene of the toilets and corridors on the train was also very good. However, the staff here were not friendly, as they did not say hello and hardly said a word. Otherwise, the seats were very comfortable and had plenty of power sockets and a wifi connection. There was also a snack machine here. Overall, the journey time was very short, especially as the train was hardly delayed and I didn't have to change trains. Overall, the journey from Bielefeld Hbf to Hanover was good.
