Advantages
IconSimple connection

Disadvantages
IconOlder DB trains
IconNo sockets in the square
IconNo on-board restaurant
The journey was very pleasant, you get to Copenhagen quickly and comfortably in just under 7 hours (with one change in Hamburg). However, DB uses very old trains, which have no power sockets on the double seats. There was also no on-board restaurant. The train is slow and jerky until it reaches the Danish border. The staff were very friendly.
