Advantages
Uncomplicated and fastOn timeDisadvantages
Actually noneThe train connection between Mannheim and Frankfurt went very well. The train arrived on time and left on time without any problems. I quickly found my seat, which was very spacious and very comfortable, the legs had a lot of freedom and there was a power socket at each seat. This was very positive, e.g. to charge a small game console and keep busy with it during the journey. The toilet facilities were okay but could be cleaned a bit better in my opinion, the price-performance ratio was right in my opinion and average. The staff were able to answer my questions and were very polite. I reached my destination without any delays and was very satisfied with this train connection.
Advantages
ComfortableWIFICleanlinessDisadvantages
DelayWell, I have to say that my train journey from Mannheim to Frankfurt was really OK. The seats on the train were super comfortable. I could lean back and enjoy the ride without getting a backache. And the wifi on board - that was a real bonus. I could stream my favourite shows and keep myself entertained during the journey.
The cleanliness on the train was also spot on. No dingy seats or dirty aisles - everything was in acceptable condition. That was a plus point.
The staff were friendly and helpful. They were approachable and answered questions, which made the journey more pleasant.
There was a small delay. Nothing dramatic, but it messed up my schedule a bit.
Advantages
Very fastDisadvantages
NoneThe train journey from Mannheim to Frankfurt offered a satisfactory experience overall. Accessibility was good, with easily accessible boarding points. The train was on time and the staff very friendly. The toilet facilities were clean, and very well maintained. The bistro offered a varied selection and the overall seating comfort was very pleasant. The seats were adequately padded and the cleanliness throughout the train was satisfactory.
Advantages
An average train connectionDisadvantages
Could be a little cleanerThe train journey from Mannheim to Frankfurt by ICE was OK. The train was on time and reached its destination without any major delays. The toilet facilities were clean and well equipped. This increased comfort during the journey. The train staff were friendly and helpful. The availability of power outlets in the carriages was also present, as this allowed electronic devices to be charged. The seats were comfortable and provided enough space for passengers, but unfortunately there were some areas on the train, especially on the floor, that were not as clean as they should be. Overall, the train ride from Mannheim to Frankfurt was a pleasant experience, except for the unclean floor.
Advantages
On timeDisadvantages
WCI travelled by train from Frankfurt to Mannheim.
The punctuality of the train, the aisle, the seating and the on-board staff were all positive. The onboard wifi and charging facilities for electrical devices were available and worked perfectly.
What I didn't find so great were the sanitary facilities, which were really dirty and smelled unpleasant.
Otherwise, the journey was really pleasant and quiet and very beneficial.
The journey only took about 50 minutes.
Advantages
Professional and fastProblem-freeDisadvantages
I have nothing to criticise about this train connectionI often travel by ICE and have experienced quite a few things. This time, however, it all worked out fantastically. The train arrived and departed on time. I quickly found a clean and comfortable seat, which had enough space for my legs, as well as pleasant and really comfortable armrests and a leather headrest. The train had a wifi connection as well as a power socket, so I could easily charge my electronic devices. The staff were very friendly and helpful and were able to answer all my questions. The train looked really clean, it must have been freshly cleaned, it smelled very nice and looked like new. The toilet was fresh and clean in my opinion, plus I was able to rest and even sleep a bit during the journey. Which shows me that everything was done professionally. Definitely a recommendation from me.
Advantages
Top price-performance ratioDisadvantages
A little too tight on the trainThe train connection was extremely punctual. The train departed and arrived in Frankfurt at exactly the scheduled time. The train was very accessible. There was enough space for wheelchairs and other mobility aids. The access ramps were easily accessible. The toilets were mostly clean and well equipped. Unfortunately, there were some problems with the tap in one of the toilets. On the train itself, I found the space a little too cramped. The bistro on the train offered a good selection of food and drinks. The prices were reasonable, unfortunately the service was a bit slow. Overall, the train journey was a positive experience. The punctuality and accessibility were particularly appreciated.
Advantages
Good connection to the airportDisadvantages
No recognisableThe journey to the airport from Mannheim to Frankfurt is really quick with the ICE. It is therefore a good connection to fly directly to your holiday destination. If necessary, seats can be reserved. However, it is not really necessary for this short journey.
Advantages

Toilets often not openDisabled people disadvantaged when there is a shortage of staffTicket control is not automaticThe journey from Mannheim to Frankfurt was very pleasant. The tickets were quickly adjusted so that they corresponded to the new route. Unfortunately, there were a few cancellations, but these were compensated for very well. A broken door was also repaired during the journey. All this without any delays. The food was also very tasty. We ordered a coffee and it was also delicious with real milk.
