Advantages

Board bistro open

Friendly staff

Seats comfortable and clean with full equipment

Train had arrived on time

Disadvantages

Train was very full

Volume in passenger compartment too loud

This train had been very full. It was therefore noisy in the passenger compartment. Since the on-board bistro was open, I went there. It was very clean and quiet. The service was very good and the staff friendly. The seats had also been comfortable and had an internet connection and power sockets. I didn't have to change trains on the journey so it was very comfortable. The train had not been delayed.
