I was pleasantly surprised by the train journey. It really was the best connection for my route, without changing trains and perfectly timed. The comfort in the carriage was just right: comfortable seats, plenty of legroom and a quiet atmosphere. I was able to make good use of the time because the wifi was stable and fast enough to work. I was also impressed by the punctuality, we even arrived a few minutes early. I think that's more than fair for the price we paid. I would book this connection again at any time. That's how travelling by train should always be.

The train journey with Renfe AVLO 02069 from Málaga to Seville was a complete success! The departure from the modern Málaga María Zambrano station was punctual and stress-free. On the train itself, I was impressed by the clean, friendly atmosphere and the comfortable seats, which are also pleasant for longer journeys. The large windows offer a great view of the varied Andalusian landscape - a real highlight. I found the price-performance ratio particularly positive: for a low fare, you get a fast, direct connection and save yourself the trouble of long transfers. The staff were helpful and friendly, the air conditioning worked reliably and the sanitary facilities were clean. Wifi and power sockets on site make the journey even more comfortable. You arrive in Seville relaxed and without any hassle - perfect for business travellers and holidaymakers alike. I would book this connection again at any time and can recommend it to anyone who wants to travel between Málaga and Seville in a comfortable, cheap and environmentally friendly way.

IconThe train was very punctual
Disadvantages
IconIt was not clean
I really appreciated the fact that the train arrived on time. The journey was smooth and the schedule was well planned. Unfortunately, the carriage was not particularly clean. The floor was covered in crumbs and some areas appeared to be unkempt. This detracted a little from the overall impression. Nevertheless, the journey was pleasant as the seat was comfortable and the compartment remained quiet. I give 4 stars.

I quite enjoyed the journey. The train was modern and comfortable, but unfortunately the cleanliness didn't quite live up to expectations. Some of the seats were stained and the tables could have done with a wipe. The train journey was quiet and the train arrived on time. The service was friendly and offered assistance. All in all, the journey was pleasant, but I would like to see more attention paid to cleanliness.

Advantages
IconI had enough space
Disadvantages
IconWIFI
The only downside of the train journey was that the wifi occasionally didn't work properly. Overall, the journey was still pleasant for me. The seats were comfortable and I had enough space to feel at ease. It was quiet in the compartment, which allowed me to relax. I read, listened to music and just looked outside. I particularly liked the fact that I could get up and move around in between.
Advantages
Iconvery favourable
It was honestly the cheapest ride of my life. It's unbelievable, it only cost 14.45€. I didn't expect anything for that price, but I got so much. The incredible thing is that there were no negatives either and the thing I liked the most was of course the price and the air conditioning, which worked perfectly and made sure I didn't get warm. There was also great wifi and clean toilets. The staff were also very nice and humorous. The service was also cool. I got much more than I expected, so I can only recommend the trip. My train was also on time.
Advantages
Iconvery favourable
This ride was honestly the cheapest ride of my life. It's awesome! I only paid €14.45 and got from city to city, which is too good to be true. Add to the great price: the comfy seat, the volume on the train(it was quiet), the disinfected toilets and the services. It was awesome. Even if everything was in the negative, although it was perfect, I can't recommend anything else but this trip. Besides, Spain is very beautiful and has many sights.
Advantages
IconPleasant atmosphere
This ride was in 2016 and was great. I went at noon and the ride took 2½ hours. Luckily there was air conditioning as it was very warm. My wifi was good and the train arrived on time. I will say in advance that I can recommend the trip. If you needed food, you also got it. The service was fast and price neutral. My meal was delicious, the toilets were clean and this was one of the cheapest tickets of my life, only 14,45€. That's awesome!
Advantages
IconSeat window
The rides in Spain are really awesome! My journey from Barcelona to Girona was just as great. I had a window on the seat, the heaters were on and the atmosphere was great. I had multiple access to electricity and the service was very fast. The staff were very nice. The toilets were very clean and hygienic. My train was on time and very cheap. I can definitely recommend it as everything went as it said on my train ticket. Highly recommended.

The Spanish people were very friendly, I can definitely recommend it. It was also very cheap.

I can remember absolutely nothing negative here. The train both arrived on time and was on time. In addition, it was very clean, so I didn't notice anything left behind by previous passengers.

Advantages
IconNice ride
Disadvantages
IconPricewise okay
I travelled to Sevilla Santa on the so-called Avant 08694. Unfortunately, I noticed right at the start of the journey that the train was very dirty. Both on the outside and inside the train. Unfortunately, I have often had the experience in Spain that the trains are very dirty and hardly comparable to those in other European countries. The service was also rather poor and unfortunately I was not very satisfied with the price.
Advantages
IconGood catering
IconFast wifi
Disadvantages
Icon20 minutes late
The time I travelled from Malaga to Seville took two hours and 40 minutes due to a delay. However, I stayed in a hotel with friends overnight and therefore didn't continue my journey until the next day. I left Malaga at 20:19 and arrived in Seville at 13:31. The journey on train number 13910 was extremely comfortable. There was very fast internet, power sockets and a variety of catering. The service was also excellent and the toilets were clean, as was the rest of the train. For the price it was well worth it.
Advantages
IconSimple booking
Disadvantages
IconExpensive
IconDirty
Unfortunately, what I didn't like about the journey from Malaga to Seville was that my ticket was quite expensive, despite the fact that it was very easy to book online.

Advantages
IconGood fishing
Disadvantages

The train from Málaga to Seville departed on 10 March at 8 a.m. with the train number 2027. The journey took around 2 hours. It was possible to buy a seat reservation, which I did.

Unfortunately, the toilets were locked, but the whole train was clean and hygienic. The staff were nice and polite
Advantages

At 4pm the train departed from Malaga on the AVE 2861 and after changing trains took the IRY 6148bis to Seville.

Ouigo

About
SNCF OUIGO is a low-cost train service launched in 2013 by SNCF, the French national railway company. It offers budget-friendly travel on both high-speed (Ouigo Grande Vitesse) and conventional (Ouigo Vitesse Classique) lines in France, and also to Belgium and Spain. OUIGO trains are characterized by a \no-frills\" approach, featuring a single class of seating and minimal onboard amenities to keep ticket prices low. While the high-speed services utilize specially reconfigured TGV trains, Ouigo Vitesse Classique uses older locomotive-hauled rolling stock for even cheaper fares on slower routes."
