Advantages
ComfortableQuickCheapDisadvantages
NoneThe journey in the ICE 13 was very comfortable and cosy. I had a seat reservation and could comfortably charge my mobile phone from a socket during the journey. I also used the wifi hotspot, which also worked without any problems. The toilets could have been a little cleaner.
Advantages
Comfortable travelUncomplicatedEmpty trainDisadvantages
Homeless people searched the train for deposit bottlesThe night train journey went smoothly and the train was on time. A positive aspect was the almost empty compartment at that time (01:00).
The cleanliness was good, except for the overflowing bins, which is normal at this time of night. The journey itself was very pleasant and quiet.
The only negative point were the homeless people, who inconsiderately searched for deposit bottles, but left us alone.
For the one-way train connection, however, the journey is recommendable.
Advantages
PunctualityFastServiceDisadvantages
ComfortTrain connectionPersonnelThe journey from Frankfurt Airport to Frankfurt Central Station is a quick one, arriving in under 15 minutes. The comfort was good, with a power socket and a restaurant, but the power socket should also work. The only pity was that you didn't get any information for subsequent train connections.
The staff were open to questions, but did not have a suitable answer to many questions.
Advantages
CleanDisadvantages
DelayI had to change trains at Frankfurt Airport and was a bit annoyed at first as the train was almost 40 minutes late. Once I arrived, however, I was fine as I was given something free in the on-board bistro as compensation. The toilets were clean and the wifi was very stable.
