I can highly recommend my journey with Deutsche Bahn from Cuxhaven to Bremen Hbf. The occupancy rate was very low, the journey time was pleasantly short and everything was perfectly clean. Only the internet connection was unfortunately not good enough to work during the journey. Otherwise, however, there are hardly any things to complain about. The service was nice and uncomplicated.
