Pros

On time

Service very nice

Cons

Socket defective

The journey from Darmstadt Hbf to Hamburg Hbf was relatively pleasant. The most important thing for me was that the connection was on time. The service staff on duty during the journey were very friendly. What was unfortunately not so nice was that the power socket at my seat was defective. Therefore, after a few stops, I looked for a new free seat where the socket was functional.

Pros

Fast connection

Pleasant atmosphere

No change

Cons

Partly very full

Partly very loud

An absolute favourite route! A fast connection without changing trains. That's how you want to travel by train. At times the train was very full and therefore of course very noisy. But that is certainly also due to the time of day. But most of the time it was pleasant. The train attendants were friendly. The wifi connection was also fine. There would still be a slight need for optimisation here. The price-performance ratio was also OK for the fast connection.
