Bus was on time, comfy. Good driver and stopped for bathroom breaks too. All good.

There was an hour delay and the last part of the trip was very uncomfortable. The bus seemed old and I think there was an issue with the engine since it jerked back and forth the whole time. At one point it even felt like we were not moving at all on the highway (we continuously moved forward and then stopt abruptly).

Overall, everything went well. We had two stops on our trip. The busdriver went out without telling us how long we gonna pause here and whether there is the option to go on toilet. Just the bus driver was very egoistic and took that opportunity. Everyone else stayed in the bus because of the fear to be left behind.

Average experience. Bus wasn't as advertised and was tired. Arrived nearly 1 hour later to the final destination. Seat allocation wasn't enforced. Otherwise comfortable

Bus was one hour late right from the start and we almost still missed the bus as they told us that no bus was coming yet for another 30 minutes (it came right after we had asked about this). No communication from the bus driver at all about the one and only bathroom break.
