I was very disappointed at first as my train arrived almost 25 minutes late. The positive aspects, however, are that it was very clean everywhere and that the staff paid attention to hygiene. The train was very punctual and I think the wifi was comparatively good. The journey was very reasonably priced and I bought the ticket on the website. The journey definitely deserves a recommendation.
