Unfortunately it wasn’t comfortable. Im normal size but space was narrow. Price. Not comfortable seats, and too small space. Im normal size but still narrow- for long trips like this. Other buses more comfortable. I’ve traveled several times.

Poor air conditioning. Timely and orderly bus service. Air conditioning was very poor on return journey. No wifi. Outward journey the bus station location was not where it was said it would be. We asked in the bus station and no one knew the correct location. Only for my wife who went and asked every driver, we would have missed the bus.
