Dining cars prioritize ergonomics for dining over long-trip comfort.
For sleeping and couchette cars, the primary focus is on the quality and comfort of the beds, not the seats. 9,2

Málo zásuviek v kabínach. Vozne by si už zaslúžili nejaký upgrade a pozrieť na tie klepajúce podvozky, ktoré nočnému komfortu rozhodne nepridávajú.

Skvělé lůžkové vozy, jen by to chtělo doplnit zásuvky, kterých je méně než lůžek v oddíle.

Luxusní lůžko, jediná nevýhoda je malá sprcha v Deluxe oddílech a málo zásuvek v kupé

My first experience riding on a night train in mainland Europe was in this carriage, and honestly, it was ok. I found the beds to be rather on the firm side, but not too hard.
The ride quality was ok, although the shunting movements at Bohumín were quite bothersome, and I couldn't fall asleep very well on the majority of the journey. Additionally, I found the lighting to be vexatious, not the regular coach lighting, however, the buttons which you press to control the compartment lights did not dim themselves when all the other coach lights were off.
Whilst this isn't usually a disturbance when you're facing AWAY from the buttons, unfortunately, the buttons were place inconveniently right next to the beds, exactly where you'd be sleeping. This means the light is directly shone at your closed eyes which made it harder for me to sleep. Additionally, the service which is provided by JLV turned out to be quite poor, so I was not given an eye mask upon entering my room.
In terms of the other carriage features, the communal shower worked fine, sound proofing was fairly good and the temperature control also worked well, until we were detached from our locomotive and shunted around at Bohumín, where the air conditioning switched on and off repetively as we were attached & detached from other carriages and attached to a new locomotive. The carriage itself wasn't the most clean, and there were only a few charging points inside the compartment.
Overall, whilst the carriage itself is "ok" at best, I wouldn't recommend travelling on it. The features onboard are quite outdated, USB power sockets and a more ideal place of where the lighting control buttons should've been placed would've been appreciated. Hopefully, it will be refurbished someday.
This review also reflects on the ÖBB WLABmz 7290 nj, which has an identical interior.

V dnešní době by se hodilo více zásuvek, než jedna v oddíle u země a jedna v koupelně, ale jinak vozům není prakticky co vytknout.
