The air conditioning was too cold. Even the driver put on a jacket at one point instead of turning up the temperature.

Bus was 40 minutes late. When we started, we only pulled out and into a gas station where the driver left the bus again and went in. Bus was comfortable and the driver was food on the twisting hill roads.

Vehicle was comfortable. Was a bit delayed and we sat behind the driver (who seemed to have a cold as he coughed continuously). But good driver, safe and arrived OK considering the twisty, windy roads.
