NoneThe train connection from Cologne to Darmstadt was very pleasant and satisfactory. The punctuality of the train was excellent, the train arrived and departed on time. The cleanliness of the train was average, the floors and seats were very well maintained and clean, but the windows could do with some extra cleaning. The toilets were well equipped and well maintained. I reached my destination on time and was very happy with this train service, so I am happy to recommend it.

Sanitary facilitiesI travelled from Cologne to Darmstadt by train. I had to change trains twice on my journey. All trains arrived on time, so there were no connection problems. There were also no delays or disruptions during the rest of the journey. The trains were in good general condition. The wifi provided worked very well and reliably, as did the power sockets, which were very handy for charging smartphones. Unfortunately, the sanitary facilities were not particularly clean.
