We've taken the autotrain 4 times and find it very convenient. Because of the price of the sleeping rooms we just ride in the coach because I can be uncomfortable for 1 night if I can save $300 or so dollars. One thing we did find is that you should bring a comfortable pillow with you on board and a light blanket. Autotrain does provide a skimpy pillow but if you're sleeping in your seat it's much more comfortable to have a better pillow. The time before last the cars weren't filled and there were empty seats so we could spread out on 2 seats.
