95 minutes lateLoud atmosphere on the trainStaff overstrainedOn this journey, the train had been very late, a total of 95 minutes, so that subsequent trains were also delayed. It had been very noisy on the train and the staff were very overwhelmed with the situation. Nevertheless, the train was very clean and the toilets were hygienic. There was still a food option on the train. The seats had been comfortable and had power sockets and an internet connection. As the train was full, I did not recommend the journey.
Advantages
ComfortDisadvantages
NoneI travelled the route from Cologne to Essen on 24 May with the ICE 729. The journey takes about 1 hour, but is very bearable in the ICE. Despite commuter times, I got a seat without a seat reservation and the train was not too crowded. It was quite clean on the train, the conductor was very nice and the price for the ticket was reasonable, with about 18 € per trip I find the price performance very reasonable.

NoneYesterday, on my way back from Dortmund, I travelled from Essen to Cologne on the ICE 729.
The journey between Cologne and Essen was very pleasant and took about 1 hour.
The train was clean, the conductor was very polite and the price-performance ratio was also very fair. Basically, I can highly recommend the trip, as I even got a seat in the full train despite not having a seat reservation.
Advantages
Cleanliness in the toilets and on the trainInternet connection and power sockets availableSeats were comfortable and had large tableswithout changingDisadvantages
15 minutes lateNo ticket inspectionThis train was delayed by 15 minutes. But as I didn't have to change trains, I didn't find this too bad. There was plenty of space on the train and it was quiet. There was a power socket at my seat and I also had a good internet connection. The train was clean and the toilets smelled good. There was no ticket inspection, so I can't comment on the staff. Apart from that, I found the seats very comfortable and the tables were big enough to put a lot of things on. There was no need to change trains on my journey.
Advantages
Nice train crewWe are very satisfied with the train journey. The train staff were extremely friendly to us and I can't think of anything to criticise. The train was also well cleaned. The seats were also comfortable, they are just normal train seats. Wifi and power sockets were available.

Sanitary facilitiesI travelled from Cologne to Essen by train. The train arrived on time and had no further disruptions or delays during the journey. The seating areas made a clean and well-kept impression. The wifi and power sockets worked perfectly. Unfortunately, I didn't find the sanitary facilities to be particularly clean. There is room for improvement here. Otherwise absolutely recommendable
