The seats of double decker are not very comfortable. Luggage space is poor in case of upper and lower decks . Same holds true for legroom. The coach feels cramped up and suffocating in case all seats are booked (rare , but have unfortunately experienced the scenario). A normal LHB Chair Car is much better .
The rake is a mix of Uday and double decker livery coaches . The windows on the lower deck in old DD coaches were full of scratches. Food trays were loose and dirty .
Although

basic cleaning is done at SBC , the rakes are in dire need of maintainance .
Keep this train as a last resort to travel on SBC-MAS Section .

Travelled in this train from SBC to MAS on 07-05-2016 in seat no. 69 of C4 coach. Since near the door literally no AC. The AC plant was giving out huge noise. The adjacent food tray dirt was not cleaned. I had to literally talk harshly to the lady over phone No. 138 for this. Within 10 minutes, one supervisor along with another person organised for cleaning. The AC was not at all set right. The TTE was helpful in arranging alternative seats. I moved to seat No. 50 in the lower deck after BWT. At Ambur, I had to move to some other seat. Till we reached PER, I had sweat a lot. The mobile plug points were not working.

Complained on Twitter, COMS. After 2 days, COMS replied that the AC has been rectified. But the twitter evoked no response inspite of the posting from DRM - MAS divn's declaration that "we respond faster on Twitter".

Book this train as a last option.
Travel light when travelling in this train.
NO luggage space if you get Lower or Upper. There is no luggage space below the seats as well. Not advisable for people above 5'9".
The seats are horrible, very small, goes downward |\. Mosquitoes follow the vendors who come in while selling.
No
