About a month ago, I took a train trip with Deutsche Bahn from Bonn to Paris. The train arrived in Paris on time, which was very important for me. The staff were very friendly and they took the customers' concerns very seriously. The price for the ticket was very good. Unfortunately it was very noisy on the train which made the journey difficult. There were also several changes of trains which made the journey difficult. The seats were not comfortable and unfortunately not well maintained. Overall, a good journey.
