WIFICateringThis train journey was very pleasant as the train was not delayed. The passengers were talking at a pleasant volume. The staff was also friendly, and the seats, toilets, tables and aisles were kept very clean. However, I particularly noticed the staff as they were always ready to help if there was a problem.

ComfortI took the ICE from Munich central station to Frankfurt am Main central station in the summer. Even if the journey could be a bit cheaper, I would definitely recommend it! The journey itself was very comfortable and the wifi worked well. The cleanliness of the ICE was also very good!
Advantages
Beautiful landscapeDisadvantages
No weaknessesThe ride was very nice, there were power sockets, the seats were comfortable and clean, the atmosphere was very pleasant and the volume was good. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There were clean toilets and the train left on time and arrived on time. The view was also very pleasant and it was nice to see the countryside out of the window. The food was very tasty, but unfortunately there was a child sitting behind me who was shouting the whole time, but after a quick coffee with the father he told his son to go to sleep instead. I can only recommend this trip, it was very worthwhile.
