The train journey from Mannheim to Berlin was okay overall. The train was on time and comfortable, but unfortunately the price was not as good as I expected. There could have been a better price-performance ratio. The seats were comfortable and there was enough legroom. The compartment was clean and tidy, but there could have been a bit more storage space for luggage. The train was well equipped, with toilets and a sales area for snacks and drinks. Travelling by train is usually a good option if you want to save the environment and save time, but on this trip I felt I expected more for the price. Overall, it was a pleasant journey, but I think I will consider a different travel option next time if I need better value for money.

Iconvery polite staff
My train arrived on time and I also arrived on time. I was very happy with the wifi. The heaters were on because it was very cold outside, but it was hot inside. The train looked very nice from the inside as well as from the outside. My coffee cappuccino was very tasty and very cheap for its performance. The staff were very polite and especially nice to the children. I was always informed where I was at the moment, which I thought was great.

Disadvantages
IconTrain delay
On this trip, too, DB lived up to its reputation of being late most of the time. However, this was not a big deal, as the rest of the train journey was very pleasant. My seat was equipped with a power socket and there was also wifi. It wasn't very transmitting, but it was sufficient. The seat was very comfortable and as I was wearing headphones, I didn't notice the noise. The service was nice and I had no problems with the reservation. In addition, my seat was clean and I felt comfortable. The price-performance ratio was acceptable for this long distance.

Overall, I was very satisfied with the train journey.
