It was a very nice train ride. I had good wifi, a power socket and a bin. The seats were very comfortable. I also had a breathtaking view. Unfortunately, the train was a bit noisy. I did get food from the nice staff though. They were also very friendly. I had a reservation option. Unfortunately, I could not read the information as the ticket is in Polish. The toilets were unfortunately very dirty. There were also used condoms lying around. That almost made me throw up. I didn't have to change trains and the train was on time. But the price-performance ratio is really good for what you get.
