Frankfurt (Oder) to Berlin train with Deutsche Bahn (EC)

The train journey from Frankfurt to Berlin was very positive overall. The accessibility at the station was very good, but there is room for improvement in Berlin. The train was on time and the staff very helpful and attentive. The toilet and bistro were clean and well equipped, I was able to buy a fresh coffee during the journey. The comfort of the seats and the availability of power outlets were there and working properly. The cleanliness on the train was acceptable but could be improved. The hygiene was fine. Overall a solid travel experience.

I travelled the Frankfurt or to Berlin route and travelled alone as an adult. As I travel frequently for work, I don't mind travelling a lot by train; on the contrary, it's a very relaxed and comfortable journey, as you can already work on the way. The trains are well equipped, with wifi, charging facilities for mobile phones and laptops, and a decent on-board bistro. In the on-board bistro, it is usually a gamble whether everything is in order and available or not. The only thing that could be better is the hygiene in the toilets, but this cannot always be guaranteed with so many passengers and changing journeys yesterday. In my opinion, the fare for such a route is very high, but since it is paid by my employer, it is not a tragedy.

The train arrived on time and made a tidy impression from the outside. Inside the train, unfortunately, it looked different, the floor was very dirty, the walls almost black and the windows very dull, so it was very hard to see through. The seat was worn out and the fabric was almost smooth, plus it was hardly upholstered. The toilet looked unclean to me personally and it smelled unpleasant. There was wifi as well as electricity on the train, which was positive. A member of staff was always on hand. It was a fast train connection, but could be cleaner.

I was able to book and print my ticket very quickly thanks to the clear app. When I arrived at the platform, the train came 5 minutes later. Inside the train it looked a bit unhygienic and unfortunately there was nothing to disinfect your hands. My seat looked tidy and comfortable, but didn't feel quite so comfortable. It was a bit worn out and looked used up. The toilet was an imposition, it smelled unpleasant and there was no toilet paper. The staff were friendly. The train itself was a bit noisy during the journey, but very fast. I give this train connection four stars thanks to the cheap ticket price, and the fast speed.

I have often travelled this train connection, and so far I have not noticed too much of a difference; it is almost always the same. Of course, the train is delayed from time to time, but you have to put up with that, and that's understandable. I think that since this connection certainly takes on a lot of passengers, it is obvious that the train is difficult to keep clean. For this, I deduct half a star. Thanks to the power source and wifi on the train, it's wonderful to pass the time with your tablet or smartphone during the journey, and if that doesn't work or gets too boring, there's always a bistro on the train where you can buy various drinks or snacks. The toilet is rather averagely clean, yet I didn't miss anything, for this I deduct another half star, the seating position is relatively comfortable, clean and looks well maintained. There is enough daylight in the train so that you can also read a book, among other things. The staff have been 80% friendly so far. I give this train connection a total of four stars, as it is still pretty well organised in this day and age.

The booking of this trip actually went smoothly. I was looking forward to the trip, but unfortunately I was a bit disappointed by the cleanliness on the train. The seats were very dirty and the walls were smeared, the toilets were also not completely clean, so you couldn't actually sit on them. I was driven safely to my destination, but not very pleasantly. Maybe Deutsche Bahn can improve the cleanliness a bit. Otherwise, beautiful scenery along the way.

This connection from Frankfurt to Berlin was very pleasant. There was wifi on board as well as a power socket. The seats were comfortable and clean. The staff were very friendly, and had asked me if everything was suitable for me as it was. The toilet was clean and had everything you needed. There were enough paper towels as well as toilet paper, soap and disinfectant. The price could be a little cheaper. Otherwise, I am very satisfied with this route and can recommend it to others.

I travelled from Frankfurt to Berlin by ICE. The train ride was very pleasant, the service was also very, very friendly, the train was very clean. There was also a socket next to the seats where you can charge your mobile phone. There was also wifi access throughout the journey.
