Pros

Many different catering options available

Staff were friendly and carried out ticket checks quickly

Train was not delayed

had had the full equipment

Cons

Train had a high occupancy, no more seats available

I took the regional express from Ulm to Munich because my ICE train was cancelled. So the journey took a little longer. The train itself was very clean, as were the toilets. However, there was the problem that it was very crowded and I had to stand. There were various food options on the train and the staff had been friendly and carried out the ticket check very quickly. Everything was available and the train arrived at its destination on time.

Pros

wifi

On time

Cons

Unkempt

I travelled from Darmstadt to Munich on IC 2297, which also included Ulm as a stopover. The journey was in second class. I didn't make a reservation and still had a seat, the train was a bit unkempt and run down. Unfortunately there was no wifi. The train was on time the whole way, so there were no complications in that respect. The journey from Ulm to Munich went very quickly, which I welcomed.

Pros

Direct drive

Good catering

Calm atmosphere

Cons

Delay

Due to a slight delay, I unfortunately did not reach my connections in Munich. Nevertheless, the journey was very relaxed, especially as it was a direct connection. The catering in the on-board bistro had a very good selection of food. Even for me as a vegetarian.

Pros

Clean train

On time

Cons

None

I travelled with the EC 219 from Heidelberg to Salzburg. The Ulm - Munich route was also served. The journey was in second class, but it was quite comfortable. There was wifi and the carriage was clean. There were also plenty of seats. The train left Ulm on time and arrived in Munich on time. The staff on board were friendly. Overall, I can't say anything negative about the journey.

Pros

Fast travel

Cons

None

I travelled second class from Darmstadt to Munich on IC2297. The Ulm to Munich section was part of it, so I can rate this journey. The train was visually well maintained and apparently hygienic. The Deutsche Bahn staff were friendly and courteous. The train was on time. The route offers beautiful scenery. I have nothing to complain about. The toilet in my carriage was also in working order.

Pros

Fast connection between Ulm and Munich

Only 2 stops on the route

Cons

Cleanliness in the sanitary facilities

Fast connection with only 2 stops. The journey was quite punctual (only 3 minutes late). You can use the comfort check-in then you won't be disturbed by the controller. The toilets could be cleaner. The staff were nice and friendly. I would be happy to travel again!
