I have to say in advance that the journey was very short and I therefore only experienced a short period of time. But everything was pretty good on this one. The seats were comfortable, the train was on time and everything was very clean. Toilets were filled and hygienic, and there was wifi and power sockets. The only thing was that the staff were a bit unfriendly to me. All in all a good journey, always happy to travel again
