okay, so, quick review of the Nightjet mini-cabins:

-they're quite nice

-the space is kinda limited, noticeable when you need to transfer a backpack or something from one end to the other of it

-the lower ones definitely felt better

-the sleeping surface was actually good (!!!) still on the hard side, but they had actual padding. definitely better than the comfort couchettes.

-no individualized thermostat, I feel that's a big loss from the normal couchettes. and I was a biiiit cold during the night (so I stole the blanket from the empty cabin next to mine)

-the luggage space is a bit less convenient, but good enough. you leave it in a separate carriage with a dedicated spot with locks, which is not a big deal, but it's inconvenient to go there from your minicabin when boarding, probably better to just go there directly. the lower ones have extra storage space below the mattress too.

the same minicabin, but this time showing the upper side, with some space to place things, a way to open access to the next minicabin, a small window, padding in the wall, and a power socket

oh yeah, I forgot:
-the pillows are still bad. small and too soft.

anyway, I went to sleep quite quickly and woke up just in time to get to my station, so I can't really say much more about it, I was mostly just asleep.

ah btw I didn't mention it because I feel this is both more subjective and also kinda obvious but: the privacy is very much appreciated. specially not having to go to the bathroom to put on/take off one's pyjamas at night/morning
