Extremely uncomfortable ride. 1. Literally no leg space 2. seats don’t recline 3. Extremely small bus 4. AC wasn’t working and it was 30 degrees outside so everyone was sweating and dying in the heat 5. 5 hour journey but no place to even open your food / drinks to eat (no table, no cup holder etc) 6. Came late, reached late (by 20 min) 7. Extremely small seats, hardly enough to fit a small person’s butt 8. The luggage hold extremely small so can’t fit backpacks 9. Paid way too much money for an excruciating journey.
