Advantages
HygienicDisadvantages
DelayUnfortunately, the train was a little late. On the train itself, however, I only had pleasant experiences. It was very clean. All the passengers were relaxed, so I had a relaxing time. I think it's important to mention that I bought the ticket online. I paid a good price for it. To summarise, I can unfortunately only give the trip four stars.
Advantages
PunctualDisadvantages
No negative propertiesI noticed very positively that the train was very punctual. It was also very hygienic and I think I noticed a relaxed atmosphere. The price of the ticket was definitely reasonable. In my opinion, the wifi was fine by train standards. The staff were always open to questions and very patient. I recommend the journey.
Advantages
CleanlinessDisadvantages
there was noThe journey was on 14 January and took just over an hour. My seat was very clean and I had room to stow my luggage. There was excellent wifi and a pleasant atmosphere. What's more, my train was really punctual and I had a small table or rather a small plate to eat at. I can give the journey my recommendation.
Advantages
reasonably punctualDisadvantages
personnelIn a foreign country, it's clear that I don't understand everything straight away. But the staff didn't help me either. With the help of my watch, I realised that I was just over 3 minutes late, which I classed as acceptable. To my surprise, it was reasonably clean.
Advantages
Very punctualDisadvantages
_I think I can give a full 5 stars and my recommendation for this connection with a clear conscience. I boarded the train on time at around 12.30 as planned. I had everything I needed inside the train. The network connection was good and reception was available. I had a small table similar to the one on the plane, where I ate lunch. This was hygienic.
Advantages
CleanlinessDisadvantages
PunctualityApart from one small detail, everything was as expected. Unfortunately, the train was just a little late. The toilets were mostly kept clean and I noticed excellent hygiene. The price I paid on the website was more than fair. Despite the small disadvantage of the delay, I can still give it a recommendation. Instead of 5 stars, however, I only give it 4.
Advantages
PersonnelI have very positive memories of the journey. The train was very punctual and there were no problems booking the ticket on the website. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Another important aspect is cleanliness. I can say that both the sanitary facilities and my seat were very clean and hygienic. I can recommend the trip.
Advantages
HeatedDisadvantages
NetThe journey was very nice. The temperature was very pleasant. Other criteria, such as the cleanliness, the friendliness of the staff and the price-performance ratio, were perfectly met. The network wasn't particularly good, but you can't expect that on a train. I didn't have to wait long, as my train was only 2 minutes late, which is within the tolerance range.
Advantages
Very punctualDisadvantages
noneI really have nothing negative to say about the journey. The train was on time to the minute and all in all I had a very nice and relaxing journey. I counted more than 5 members of staff, all of whom seemed very friendly. Another very important aspect is the cleanliness of the toilets and seats. There was no dirt or anything like that to be seen. It took about an hour and there was no need to change trains. My train number was 310.
Advantages
HygieneDisadvantages
DelayOn this train connection, I was able to gather both positive and negative impressions. The positives include the hygiene and cleanliness of the toilets and seating area, the friendliness and competence of the 4 members of staff and the good and fast wifi. One disadvantage that I unfortunately had to realise is that my train was not on time.
