Advantages
IconUncomplicated and simple
Disadvantages
IconNone
The train connection from Münster to Stuttgart was satisfactory. Accessibility was given, there were wide doors and escalators and lifts for people with disabilities. The train was 10 minutes late, but I didn't mind. Once on the train, I found my seat, which was spacious and clean. There was enough space for the legs and a folding table and a comfortable armrest. The staff were helpful and always present. The toilets had been cleaned well, unfortunately the toilet seat was a little yellowish. The power sockets on the train were available and also worked properly. I reached the main station in Stuttgart on time and was quite satisfied with the train connection.
Advantages
IconMuch comfort
IconQuick
Disadvantages
IconSlightly unclean
The train journey from Münster to Stuttgart provided an overall satisfactory experience. Accessibility at the station was well provided and the train itself was easily accessible. The punctuality of the train was maintained, which made the journey pleasant. The toilet was clean and well maintained. The bistro offer was varied, although a little higher in price. The comfort of the seats was acceptable, as was the friendly service of the staff. The availability of power outlets was appreciated. Seats were comfortable overall, but improvements could be made in cleanliness, especially on the seating surfaces. Overall, a solid train journey, but there is room for perhaps improvement.
Advantages
IconSmooth and fast
Disadvantages
IconA bit messy
My train was five minutes late, but that was not a problem for me as I had allowed plenty of time. Boarding was smooth and there was no crowding, the seats on the train were very tidy and in my opinion very clean, the seats were also adjustable and had a folding armrest on the aisle, as well as a leather headrest. There was wifi as well as a USB port, which I found very good, I could easily connect my smartphones to wifi during the journey, as well as charge them. The toilet was a little unclean, the toilet seat was covered with yellow stains, otherwise everything was fine. There was also a coffee machine on the train, so in my opinion I was well provided for. I reached my destination on time and can gladly recommend this train connection.
