Advantages
Low capacity utilisation with a pleasant atmosphereCleanliness and hygieneSeating comfort and equipment very goodwithout changeoverDisadvantages
No staff availableDelay of 5 minutesThis train had been relatively empty, so I was almost the only one in the compartment, which is why the noise level was very pleasant. There were plenty of power sockets on the train and a stable internet connection. The seats were also comfortable, even with plenty of legroom. Unfortunately, there was no staff here, which could be because the journey was at night. Otherwise, it was very clean and I found the toilets very hygienic. Unfortunately, the train had been delayed by 5 minutes, but I didn't mind as I didn't have to change trains here.
