The customer opinion was acquired via Cimenio. Cimenio incentivises its users for giving an honest opinion and proving the booking with a photo of the travel ticket.
Advantages
Competent and helpful staffAisles and seats were clean and comfortableSufficient equipment availableNo delays and no changesDisadvantages
High capacity utilisation and noisy atmosphereAir conditioning failedToilets unhygienicNo catering facilities availableThis train was very full and therefore also very hot. It was also far too loud on the train. When I pointed this out to the staff, they told me that the air conditioning had broken down. Despite this, the staff were very competent and helpful to the passengers. As it was a suburban train, there was no snack machine. The toilets were also very unhygienic. On the other hand, I found the seats and aisles very clean. The seats were also very comfortable and the train had power sockets and an internet connection.
