We were given the seats at the back which weren't proper seats and fold down for luggage. The driver forgot to turn the air conditioning on for the first 2 hours of the journey.

The driver customer service skills were excellent. Besides his curtesy he was also an impressive driver. We reached our destination ahead of the scheduled time.
