Brasov to Budapest

Our second and unfortunately last sleeper train was from Brasov to Budapest. While our first train to Moldova had been sheets on two bench seats in our own compartment, this was something else entirely.

We had our sofa (which doubled as a bed), my top bunk bed, a sink, hanging space, and then a massive window making up most of the outside wall.

Around 9 we went to the dining carriage where we got a table and drank a bottle of wine, and then retired at 11 for a good nights sleep. We arrived in Hungary at 9 feeling ready to take on this exciting new city.

At £70 a person, it's neither a cheap hotel room nor an inexpensive train trip, but as both it's a bargain, and I'm going to miss it.
