Advantages

Change necessaryWhen I travelled by train from Bremen to Frankfurt am Main, I was pleasantly surprised by the facilities and comfort. The seats were comfortable and there was enough space for my luggage. The cleanliness of the trains was also okay, which gave me a good feeling during the journey. The service of the train attendants was friendly and helpful. They were available to answer my questions and ensured that everything ran smoothly. The punctuality of the trains was satisfactory for the most part, although there were occasional minor delays. Nevertheless, I was able to rely well on the timetable. A small disadvantage was that I had to change trains at an intermediate station. This led to a slightly longer journey time and was a small circumstance I had to deal with. Nevertheless, the train journey was pleasant overall and I was able to make good use of the time on the train to relax or work. In terms of value for money, I was satisfied. The ticket prices were fair and reasonable for the services offered. However, it is worth booking early to benefit from low fares.
