PunctualityRoad closureDiversionsI visited a business partner and the connection was the best option, even though I didn't look at any others. What I liked best was the cleanliness of the train. The worst was the delay. My journey was comfortable and I travelled at lunchtime. The train and the toilets were clean. I used the wifi on board, although this did not always work. The train was not on time, it was an hour late. The service was good. There was an on-board restaurant. However, I did not use it. I paid about €40 for my ticket. The price-performance ratio was okay.

the display did not workOne disadvantage of this ICE journey was that there was no functioning display in the carriage and I couldn't see where we were. That was a little confusing. Overall, however, the journey was positive. The seats were very comfortable and I had plenty of room to stretch out. I found it particularly positive that the train was very quiet and I was able to focus well. The compartments were also clean and tidy. The journey was pleasant and relaxed. Despite the lack of a display, I would use the ICE again as it is fast and comfortable.

No power socket on siteThis journey had good and bad sides. The train was well air-conditioned, which was pleasant on the day, but the windows were heavily steamed up, which meant you could hardly see anything. Unfortunately, my seat had no power socket, although this was indicated otherwise. The background noise was relatively high, there were a lot of phone calls and loud talking. On the positive side, there was a clean toilet despite the large number of passengers. The train was also on time. Overall, it was okay, but without any particular quality.
