The train was on time and easy to access, but it would have been worth it to spring for 2nd class. The car was crowded and we needed to sit knee to knee for the 3 hour journey.

It was very quick journey, just above 4 hours, but it was very hot in the bus, weak AC. Not super comfortable chairs either, but not very bad, a bit too little leg space (I am 182cm)

Trains arrived on time and easy to find reserved seating. Quite hot without AC but windows opened fully and fans were blowing.

The bus is on time. We arrived early at the bus terminal and they offered us to have the earlier trip instead of the booked schedule. We just declined their offer because we were not in a hurry for the trip and were hungry then. The vehicle is comfortable. No wifi on board but there was a charging port so it is okay. We were surprised that there were snacks served during the trip. We had a great experience.
