4.0
Pros: Trip was pretty easy. I had a bit of trouble with my luggage due to steep, narrow stairs and not understanding the rules. Cons: Better signage: leave large cases on bottom level. Water dispenser that works trams or something to help elderly go long distances to depots during long layovers. Tips: Bring your walking shoes, blanket, and snacks - on board meals are expensive.
