The ride was good. I had wifi and a power outlet. The seats were comfortable and even smelled good. Unfortunately, the volume was not pleasant. There were many guests who shouted a lot. It was really not pleasant. The food was good. The staff was very nice, but the food didn't taste good at all. I had a reservation option and information was on the train. The toilets were clean. I did not have to change trains and unfortunately the train was not on time. Price-performance ratio is OK.

The equipment was optimal. However, wifi did not work well. Power sockets were available. Seats were comfortable but many were dirty. The noise level was surprisingly low even though the train was older. Cleanliness could be improved, even the seats and toilets were not optimally cleaned. There was no need to change trains. All in all, the journey was perfect. The food in the on-board restaurant was very good and varied.
