I just tried out Austria's new, controversially priced night trains that have private sleeper pod. It's a slightly surreal experience being in a private capsule on a train: very cool that somebody invented it, but far from perfect right now.

By reviewing ÖBB's new Minicabin on this 14-hour journey between Hamburg and Austria, I'm covering what the new private version of the couchette is like, what food and facilities are included, and what I did and didn't like about the experience, as well as talking about the ticket prices. Nightjet have landed themselves in hot water with their new dynamic pricing algorithm for these sleeper trains, so hold on to your hats :)
