You'll arrive about 4m sooner (41m by train vs 45m by car). Tickets start at around $18 (€15) compared to roughly $7 (€5) in fuel and tolls — so you're paying a bit more, but getting hours of your day back, a city-centre arrival, and the freedom to work or relax instead of drive.

Advantages
QuickReliableDisadvantages
WarmWith this train connection, you can get to Munich very quickly. In addition, you can also use the S-Bahn and local transport besides the Deutsche Bahn. It is very cheap and definitely cheaper than taking a taxi for this short distance. From time to time, however, there are delays on this route and so the trains are often unpunctual. The trains are always clean and in good condition. Compared to public toilets in cities, I can only say good things about the toilets on the Deutsche Bahn.
Advantages
FastDisadvantages
PunctualityThe train arrived five minutes late and from then on I can no longer complain. There was plenty of seating and room for my suitcases. The train seemed clean and tidy to me and I didn't see a single beer bottle, which I usually see from time to time. There was even a ticket inspector who was very friendly and checked me during the short time I was there. I think the price-performance ratio is good.
Advantages
ServiceDisadvantages
NoneI definitely enjoyed the trip. It was very quiet and relaxed. The welcome was excellent and the staff were always helpful. What's more, I've never seen such hygienic and clean sanitary facilities on a train before. The temperature on the train was perfect and the seats were comfortable enough. The journey took about 30 minutes and the train was on time.
Advantages
Many seating optionsDisadvantages
NoneI often have to complain about this S-Bahn line, but this time everything went well. It left on time, as stated online, and arrived on time. The train offers many different seating options for just sitting, but also seats that you can just lean against, which is quite handy, especially when it's crowded. The electronic announcement is also helpful if you don't have a good view of the display board.
Advantages
FastDisadvantages
PunctualityA very short journey. I have nothing to criticise, the train was clean and tidy, the seats were comfortable and the staff were friendly. There was even working wifi, but unfortunately there was one criticism. The train was inconveniently not on time, which made it very stressful for me to get my next train on time. So, when you book a journey, you should always build in a time buffer
Advantages
FastDisadvantages
PunctualityI can't judge whether it's always like this as I've only travelled the route once, but I didn't have the best experience. Firstly, the train was five minutes late and secondly, it was totally overcrowded and you had to make yourself really small to fit in.
Advantages
ComfortableDisadvantages
No weaknessI can only attribute positive experiences to the journey. It was very comfortable and very quiet. The staff were also friendly and helpful. The reception was perfect and the hygiene was excellent. I couldn't notice any negative aspects, which is why the journey gets 5 stars.
Advantages
PriceDisadvantages
DurationDelayThe train was 20 minutes late and when it finally arrived, it was completely overcrowded and I had to squeeze in somehow.
Then we stopped halfway because two trains had to overtake us. Which meant I almost missed my connection. In the end, a twenty-minute journey turned into fifty minutes. It doesn't work like that!
