Pros

Clean toilets

Cons

No wifi

Uncomfortable seats

My train journey from Innsbruck to Munich was unfortunately very disappointing for me. The train was anything but modern, there was no wifi and the power sockets didn't work. The seats were extremely uncomfortable, which did not make the journey uncomfortable. The only positive, for me, were the clean toilets and the quiet atmosphere on the train. The whole train journey was not recommendable due to the negative points and I even decided to go back by bus. I cannot recommend this train journey to anyone!

Pros

A little over a year ago, I took the ICE from Innsbruck to Munich. I enjoyed the journey despite the poor hygienic condition of the train and especially the toilets.

Danger of a strike

The journey was on a EuroCity train coming from Italy. The train was quite full as it travelled with fewer carriages than planned, but with a bit of luck you could get a seat. Overall, the EuroCity train was very old, and there were no comfortable seats or functioning wifi. In the end, I arrived on time and was able to make my connections.
