Cons
Icon()
The attention to hygiene was great! I didn't have to worry about getting sick. The toilets were also very clean. I felt very safe on the train. I also liked the wifi quite a lot and I didn't pay that much for my ticket. I can only recommend the trip.
Pro
IconVery comfortable seats
The journey was very pleasant as it didn't feel that long, even though it had been long, which in turn meant that I felt very comfortable and had fun. I thought the atmosphere was great because the people were very empathetic, so the volume on the train was very pleasant. I also thought it was great that there were several toilets. I had enough space and could even work a bit on the computer. The service was great, because the prices were very reasonable, the orders were delivered very quickly, the food was very tasty and the drinks and the motivation of the staff, you could see that the staff enjoyed their job, that was great again. There was nothing that I didn't like, I can definitely recommend the trip, as it is highly recommendable. I would also like to say that the trip was my return trip.
Pro
Iconpleasant volume
The ride provided me with many things and I liked it or rather it was very pleasant. The staff were very correct and casual. There was very multi cultural food (vegetarian, vegan etc.). There were quite a lot of passengers and children, the children were not disturbing at all, the volume was very pleasant. It deserves 5 out of 5 stars. This is a ride that is highly recommended. What's more, my train arrived on time.
Pro
IconVery beautiful and modern train
Cons
IconThe train was late
It was a solid train journey. Unfortunately the train was delayed by 20 minutes, but it wasn't that bad as that was the only negative thing about my journey. The thing I noticed the most was the train itself and that was the train was very modern and the toilets were also very modern there was also a design on the toilets. My wifi was very good and so was my signal. The view was also very nice and the atmosphere was cool. The staff was also very helpful and took care of me all the time. I can endearingly pass on the ride. What was also very good was the service and the food respectively, the food was really delicious and the prices on the menu were reasonable. A great and solid ride. The volume was also pleasant.
Pro
IconGood wifi
That was my journey, in which there were no negative points at all. My train arrived on time and I did not have to change trains. The train was very hygienic (disinfectant and so on), especially the toilets were very clean. You could order a lot of things and the prices were reasonable. The staff were very friendly, humorous and helpful. If you needed food, you also got it. I also had a small wound and got a plaster. The volume on the train was pleasant and my seat was very comfortable, where I also had a power socket. A journey I can definitely recommend. The best of the best was my wifi, I had no problems with the wifi at all. Great ride!
Pro
IconSmoking area
Cons
Iconsomewhat expensive
At the beginning, I want to mention that my ticket was a bit expensive. There was a smoking area where I had a little chat with the nice staff. Then I want to mention that the toilets were very clean and smelled nice. My seat was very comfortable, even big enough for me to sleep. I had good wifi. There was also a power socket on my seat. I can recommend the ride. There was also air conditioning and the service was great the prices were reasonable. It was very quiet on the train. I had a small closet at my seat and a dining table at my seat. In general a great trip, if it were possible I would rate the trip 4.5 stars.
Pro
IconOn time
IconComfortable seats
IconFast wifi
Cons
IconExpensive
On this train journey, I had almost only positive experiences. The wifi is not slow like on other trains, quite the opposite, it was fast and there were no problems. The seats were also very comfortable and the train was kept very clean. The price is way too expensive, but that's the only negative thing about this trip. The train arrived 1 or 2 minutes late. So you could say that it was quite punctual.
Pro
IconQuick and easy
Cons
IconNone
For a change, a very quiet and relaxed journey. Admittedly, I overslept half the journey but the other half was great. Clean train, staff ok, well, and delays are inevitable. But it has been much worse. CONCLUSION: The price-performance ratio is right, cleanliness is good, toilets were clean and the cabins very well maintained. I had a good internet connection and the food was also quite ok for a journey. It was a bit noisy but the train was also very crowded.
Pro
IconFaster than by car
IconMore comfortable than in a car
IconMore relaxed than in a car
Cons
IconNone, the connection worked fine for me.
I recently got a BahnCard 25 for 1st class. So I also travelled here from Munich to Leipzig in first class. Everything was fine: The train was on time. Everything worked, wifi was surprisingly good and fast. There is only one socket on the single seat, but I always have a small 3-pin extension with me for my power supply units. But you could also use the other sockets at free seats. Great service, everyone was nice and friendly and I also got a huge coffee served at my seat for only 4 euros.... With BahnCard even cheaper than a trip in the cramped 2nd class.
Pro
IconObservance of hygiene
IconDelicious food
IconPunctuality
My train arrived on time and I boarded. My seat was comfortable. The wifi was good, so I was able to surf the internet without any problems. Then I ordered something to eat. The food I ordered arrived quickly and was very tasty. Then I went to the toilet as required. The toilets were very clean and hygienic and there was no shortage of soap and sanitiser. It was a great travelling experience, which I can only recommend.
Pro
IconComfort
Cons
IconHygiene
On the whole, I found the journey very relaxing. The only negative thing was that the sanitary facilities were unfortunately not cleaned and I therefore noticed a lack of hygiene. Otherwise, the seats were very comfortable. The staff also helped me with any questions I had. I also noticed good reception and fast wifi. I recommend the trip.
