Personnel

This time the journey began with a positive experience. The train was surprisingly punctual. What I didn't like at all, however, was the staff, who were anything but helpful or friendly. However, I must praise the cleaning staff, who did an excellent job in terms of cleanliness. I bought the ticket at a customer-friendly price.

Hygiene

At the time, I thought that hygiene was good. From today's perspective, however, I can say that not much attention was paid to cleanliness on the train. There were no sanitiser dispensers anywhere and the seats were not cleaned properly. Unfortunately, I also remember unmotivated staff who didn't really care about making the passengers feel comfortable. Unfortunately, this was only good enough for 3 stars. The train was on time except for 4 minutes.
