Pro

Good prices

Competent driver

Pleasant journey

Contra

None

The price-performance ratio of this trip is unbeatable. Compared to the train, the bus is a cheap alternative and offers a very pleasant way to travel. The bus was punctual on departure in Erfurt and arrival in Berlin. We reached our destination after a journey time of approx. 4 hours. No traffic jams or other delays. A quiet journey. The seats are clean and not too cramped. You have enough space and can make yourself comfortable. The free internet worked great. The ride is recommended at most.

Pro

Quick

Comfortable

Contra

No on-board service

The equipment of the train was only massive. There was no Wi-Fi on the train and sockets only in the compartment by the window. Whole 2 pieces. The seats were ok. Nothing special, but not uncomfortable either. There was no onboard service on the night train. You could reserve seats, which is also advisable. The train was very clean. In Erfurt, the train was 30 minutes late and was in Berlin 10 minutes later. Price performance is very good. 10 euros from Erfurt to Berlin.

Pro

Very courteous train staff

Punctual arrival

Delicious coffee in the on-board bistro

Contra

Nothing

I really enjoyed my train ride to Berlin. We both left and arrived on time, and the train staff was always helpful and very friendly. All toilets were open and their cleanliness left nothing to be desired either. During the trip, I grabbed a coffee in the on-board bistro and found it to be very good value for money. I had enough space in my seat and I personally found the seats to be very comfortable as well. All in all, a very pleasant train ride. Nothing could have been better.

Pro

Seats

Punctuality

Contra

Prices of catering

My train trip from Erfurt to Berlin had some positive aspects, but there were also some issues that marred my experience. The train itself was decent and the seats were acceptable, but they were not particularly comfortable. There was a lack of adequate padding and the seating position left something to be desired. The cleanliness on the train could have been better as well, as there were some dirty areas. The on-time departure and arrival were definitely a plus and the train ride went smoothly for the most part. However, there were some minor delays along the way that were a bit annoying. The scenery during the train ride was average for the most part. Customer service on the train was average. The train staff was friendly, but not particularly attentive. There were also no special amenities or additional services that would have made my trip more enjoyable. The food options on the train were limited and the quality was average. There was a lack of diverse food and beverage choices, and prices were a bit high. Overall, my train trip from Erfurt to Berlin was okay, but it didn't really impress me. There were some positives, such as the punctuality and basic functionality of the train, but it lacked comfort and outstanding features that would have made the trip an exceptional experience.

Pro

Arrival on time

Nice staff

Clean toilet

Contra

No sockets

No WIFI

I found the ride very pleasant and nice, except that the train was a bit outdated, which is why there was no wifi or sockets. Nevertheless, the train was very clean and the toilets were also very well maintained. Likewise, the staff was very and the food in the on-board bistro was still pleasantly warm. The train was also on time and you could sit comfortably, it was also surprisingly quiet, which is why you could super make a small power nap.

Utilization

Booking time

The journey to Erfurt by train is much faster than by car. You don't have to change trains. If you book in time, have a BahnCard and are young, the price is good. If you want to go at short notice, the prices are very high. The train was clean, but also very crowded. The toilet and wifi worked. Staff I have not seen the entire trip.

Pro

No negative aspects

The train ride was very uncomfortable and I did not feel uncomfortable. There was free, wifi and an extra outlet for everyone where you could charge your phone. The seats were very comfortable. The service was very, very friendly. You could make reservations on the spot as well as online. The train was pretty clean and well maintained. In terms of price, I was also really top satisfied. I can recommend it for everyone.
