I made the journey by ICE from Frankfurt to Hof. The stopover was Nuremberg main station, so I can evaluate the journey. The train was slightly late, but I was still able to catch my connecting train. The Deutsche Bahn staff were friendly. However, the train was relatively unkempt. Some of the seats in second class were run down. On the positive side, travelling by ICE is very fast. The train was relatively full on this day.
