First Class Amtrak Train Sleeper/Bedroom Review with Cost in 2025 | Problems with Amtrak

Recently, we took a cross-country Amtrak train journey from Baltimore to Los Angeles in a sleeper-bedroom. Since our preferred method of travel is trains around the world, we wanted to add this to our bucket list of experiences to see our home country from the vantage point of an Amtrak Superliner. It did not go as planned. Recently we took the Amtrak Auto Train, and we saw the best Amtrak has to offer, but on this trip, our four-day journey, we saw the WORST. So, today, we’re going to tell you how it all went wrong and give you an honest review of our experience. To get to LA from Baltimore, we were required to take three different trains, although we booked it as one route. Since our daughter lives near Baltimore, we first boarded the Northeast Regional to Washington, DC. This section was uneventful; however, our train was late. As we approached the train station, we started getting alerts that the train was behind schedule, so when we arrived, we asked to board an earlier train, and the attendant rebooked us. He said it was no problem since we had a connection to make. He remarked, you’re spending a lot to get to LA. On this short leg, we traveled in business class, but coach would have been fine too. Our curiosity of booking an Amtrak first-class experience all the way across the US intrigued us, so we booked the bedroom which included a private bathroom. This ticket allowed us to visit the lounge in DC and again in Chicago. It is our understanding that these lounges have been updated, and we thought they were all beautifully decorated. It was like an airport lounge, except it didn’t have any fresh food besides some bananas and all the snacks were prepackaged. Overall, this experience was nice, and we then boarded the train. The second leg of this journey was from Washington, DC to Chicago. This line was formerly called the Capital Limited, but recently, it was changed to the Floridian. Amtrak announced recently that you can now travel direct between Miami and Chicago. We, obviously, hopped on midway and continued a train that had left Miami the day before. This is where EVERYTHING went wrong. When we boarded, we pointed out that our cabin hadn’t been cleaned and our attendant told us that the toilet was out of order in our cabin. Mind you, this was the reason we booked this room was for the bathroom. We had recently taken the Auto train to Florida, and we booked a Roomette, which didn’t have a bathroom, so we knew we wanted to have a bathroom as we crossed the country.
