At first a bit anxious and afraid, as you never know what to expect in the overnight train in any country, and whether it will be safe, in the end I did not really have a choice. The train was the best option to get to Lviv, and there were only overnight trains. I decided to buy the most expensive ticket for the first time sleeper, which costed me around 15 euros.

When I entered the train, I loved it immediately! Very cosy, with a carpet, and very nice compartments comprising two beds with clean bedsheets. Every carriage had its own "guardian" who was available for any kind of problem, or simply to serve a tea :)
We left after 6PM, and the journey took 12h. I spent it sleeping, and was well rested when the train arrived to Lviv shortly after 6AM. It was my second experience with a train in Ukraine, and the only thing I can say is that I highly recommend trains as a mean of transport in Ukraine - clean, comfortable and safe :)
