Fortunately, the staff were able to help me with a complication. The price of the ticket was definitely fair. I would definitely recommend buying your ticket online to avoid any problems.

Advantages

VolumeHygieneChangeover requirementsMy journey from Milan to Genoa was very good as the price was quite reasonable and good value in my opinion. The train also arrived in Genoa on time. The wifi connection was extremely efficient and stable. I was able to make calls, be entertained and do my work on my laptop during the journey. The staff were also very friendly, polite and helpful. They were always there for their guests' questions and concerns. Unfortunately, the volume was not optimal and hygiene was not particularly well looked after. The toilets and seats were not clean and hygienic. There were several transfers, which made the journey more time-consuming and difficult, as I had to change trains all the time. But it was a good journey!
Advantages

Wifi connectionVolumeChangeover requirementsThe journey from Milan to Genoa was satisfactory overall. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made the journey pleasant. The ticket prices were fair and offered good value for money. The trains were mostly on time and offered sufficient comfort during the journey. However, the wifi was unreliable, which was annoying for me. The noise level on the trains was occasionally higher than expected, which impaired relaxation. In addition, the journey required changes at certain points, which limited the comfort somewhat. Overall, it was a positive experience with some small areas for improvement.
Advantages
RelaxedDisadvantages
SeatsTo avoid the stress of traffic jams and typical Italian traffic, I decided to take the train. The decision was absolutely the right one! The train was on time and the journey was very relaxed. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. The only thing I have to criticise is that the seats were a bit dirty and the wifi didn't work. But the price made up for all that as it is so cheap.
Advantages
PriceDisadvantages
CleanlinessThe best prices for train journeys I've ever had were in Italy, and this time the price was also very good. The journey itself was also very nice, but unfortunately the train was a bit lacking in cleanliness. The toilets were quite dirty and my seat wasn't exactly clean either. But otherwise I have nothing to complain about, the train was quiet plus I had a very nice view. All in all, the journey was quite good.
Advantages
Pleasantly quiet rideDisadvantages
ToiletsA very pleasant, quiet journey, during which I was able to get some sleep. The journey was very relaxing, firstly because the train kept to all its times and secondly because it was very quiet and I was able to get some sleep. The comfortable seats only made it better. Only the toilets were a bit unclean and could have been better, but otherwise a good value journey that I can only recommend to anyone!
Advantages
Good hygieneDisadvantages
Slightly late.Unfortunately, my train was delayed by around ten minutes. In contrast, I can nevertheless report that the sanitary facilities were thoroughly cleaned. The facilities on the train were immaculate. There were several power sockets and the wifi was very good. As I enjoyed the journey apart from the slight delay, I can still give it four stars. The journey took about two hours and I didn't have to change trains.
Advantages
Short journey timeDisadvantages
DelayI didn't think the journey from Milan to Genoa was the best, but it was fine because the train was slightly delayed, which meant I arrived at my destination late. Nevertheless, the journey time was very short and the ticket was quite cheap. I really liked the fact that I could use the online ticket I had just booked. I didn't have to change trains during the journey and I was able to use the good free wifi during the journey, the toilets were very clean and the train was easy to use.

CleanlinessI've only ever had good experiences with my train journeys in Italy, but this one wasn't quite as perfect as I'd like. The train was a little late, but not too bad. The cleanliness also left something to be desired, especially in the toilets. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I thought the price was very good and quite reasonable. You can definitely do it

.I have nothing negative to say about this journey. The train was on time, the staff were friendly and it was very clean. I also had a seat and constantly fast wifi. The other passengers were very quiet, so I was able to work and relax a bit during the journey. To summarise, I couldn't find any negative features and therefore give it a full five stars.
Advantages
internetDisadvantages
unpunctualI always test the wifi connection on the train so that I can compare the different train connections. Here I had an average Internet speed of 17 megabits per second. This value is really good. My seat was very clean and I had a table that could be extended. Finally, I have to mention that my train was not quite on time. It was 8 minutes late.
Advantages
CleanlinessDisadvantages
Poor hygiene in the toiletsThe first thing I noticed was that the train was really super punctual. The staff were very nice and knew their stuff. It was very hygienic for the most part. To my disappointment, I realised that the cleaning staff didn't do a very good job in the toilets. As a result, the toilets were not particularly clean. In the end, I still give it a recommendation.
Advantages
It was cleanDisadvantages
Delay of 10 minutesI loved the fact that I had a great view from my seat. I really appreciated the hygiene on the train. I don't think the delay of around ten minutes was too bad. The train journey was cheaper than it would have been in a car. I therefore rate the price-performance ratio as very good. I was also very grateful for the staff, who made a very competent impression on me.
Advantages
It was very comfortableDisadvantages
delayedUnfortunately, my train was delayed by about 10 minutes. It was comfortable and very relaxing inside. I had consistently good wifi and stable reception for the entire 2 hours of the journey.

A perfect connection for anyone wanting to travel to Genoa in a relaxed and comfortable way. Absolutely recommendable!
Advantages
HygienicDisadvantages
PersonnelI have mostly positive memories of the trip. The only negative thing was that the staff spoke very poor English and were not at all helpful. Other than that, I remember very clean and hygienic toilets, as well as a comfortable bench seat with a fold-out table for my laptop. The price I paid online for my ticket was fair in my opinion.
Advantages
PunctualityDisadvantages
_I think I can recommend the train connection in good faith. The train was on time to the minute and I felt very comfortable. It was very clean and hygienic and the staff took excellent care of me. There was fast wifi and good reception. On top of that, I had my own seat, which offered plenty of space and comfort. I can therefore give it 5 stars without hesitation and recommend the journey.
Advantages
Good networkDisadvantages
Delayed trainThe advantages of the journey include the friendly staff, the cleanliness on the train and at the station, the good internet connection and the excellent price. The only downside is that my train arrived a little late. By 15 minutes to be precise. However, minor delays are perfectly normal, so that's no reason to deduct a star. With this in mind, I give it 5 stars.
Advantages
