I am happy with my journey from Frankfurt to Braunschweig. The train was on time and fast. The ICE was also very comfortable and convenient. Unfortunately, the ticket was very expensive. The selection in the on-board bistro was also not so good. Due to my Sparpreis ticket, I was also not flexible in my choice of connection. However, I am satisfied overall.

IconEverything went well
The train connection was very punctual, which made my journey very stress-free. The ticket price was reasonable, but a slightly lower fee could be more attractive. The train was easily accessible for people with mobility impairments. Overall clean but some areas could do with improved cleaning. The number of power sockets was limited, which was a challenge for travellers with many electronic devices. Internet connection throughout the journey, ideal for work or entertainment. Toilets were clean but more regular cleaning would be desirable. Seats were a little cramped, especially for longer journeys. Larger seats would definitely improve comfort. Overall, the train journey was pleasant, mainly due to the punctuality and good accessibility.
