With my seat reservation, it was relaxed to travel on the journey from Munich to Ulm. The comfort check-in also worked without any problems. So I was not disturbed by anyone on the entire journey. Only unfortunately, the wifi connection in my carriage was not very good, which is why the connection frequently broke down.

Wifi worked perfectly. The equipment was really good, the sockets support the fast charging process of the iPhone. Hygiene was very good, the toilets smelled a bit unpleasant. There was no need to change trains, which was very pleasant. The train was punctual to the minute when picking up, not so much when dropping off. The price-performance ratio was very good. The journey was also very pleasant and you had a nice view.

Disadvantages
IconCleanliness
The journey from Munich to Ulm was, not as expected, very pleasant and a great experience. It started with the fact that the train left on time and I got a window seat with a table. I also didn't have to change trains and arrived in Ulm on time. The price was very good and I can only recommend the journey if everything goes well, as it did for me. Again and again with pleasure.
Advantages
IconSuper fast connection between the cities
IconRiding the new ICE for the first time
IconReliable and punctual
IconSuper reliable wifi that was probably due to the new ICE

I travelled on the new ICE for the first time on the short journey from Munich to Ulm. The train was brand new and very clean and well maintained. The wifi was absolutely reliable and there were hardly any interruptions. The connection was punctual and the train was not overcrowded. A clear recommendation.
