I bought tickets for 1st class. Either the system was making mistake, or if there was 1st class, I couldn't imagine what 2nd class would look like. (according the pictures, there is no difference...although in the price there is a little)
Better than expected. Ride was clean and toilet was bearable. The experience was enjoyable for the kids, and allowed quality time to be spent in conversations.
I have been freezing all night because of the AC and when I asked for another blanket, no one pay attention

Staff at the station were helpful in telling us when we should go to the platform. Staff member Tan on my carriage was very nice and helpful and brought us a complimentary beer.
My wife and I were glad that we reserved a VIP carriage - four people in the same carriage would have been a squeeze.
The toilets were clean and with good toilet paper.
We found the bed mattress a bit hard but we got reasonable sleep overnight.
We were only 20 minutes late into Da Nang, so overall, very good.
Lovely clean cabin, beautifully made bed and great free snacks. Probably the best mattress we've had in our 3 week stay in Vietnam! Unfortunately the wheels under the carriage were quite loud when the train was turning, the noise went through my earplugs... Otherwise I slept quite well and the views were beautiful! Lots of food trolleys through the evening and morning, and you can also order food delivered, through the QR code.
It’s such a scenic train ride. The view at the end was amazing (Hue to Da Nang). The cabin size and cleanliness was perfect. We had water and a few snacks on board. Plus the possibility to order some fresh food. The bed was comfy. The air conditioning was extreme. Bring extra clothes and a scarf with you. The train was moving slow. The ride was quite bulky. The train’s axles were making very loud cracking noises, so I couldn’t sleep very well. My partner, however, had earplugs and slept like a baby. The train workers were super friendly.
The bed was very uncomfortable and felt as hard as concrete or wood. The ride was also very bumpy, and the bed was quite small, which made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. In addition, both the cabin and the toilets were very small and not particularly clean.
