This ride sucked. It was hot, cramped, and full of packages and broken seats that don't recline and leave no leg room or room for other passengers. Don't expect a comfortable ride. And there is no space for luggage of any size but on your lap. It wasn't faster than the bus. Costs the same as the bus. A lot more uncomfortable. And a horrible overall experience. Also no need to order online because these vans leave every 30-60 minutes. Most times of the day.

I was lucky by chance and could catch a good seat. My luggage was quite big but the staff managed it well. Finaly we were in time and dropped a good place for me.

Arrived at Khao san road at 8.40 am. Mama travel didn't know there are someone traveling to Pattaya. The staff give them a call and arrange a van for us. So make sure you check in early. Then we were taken to the bus terminal in the west and waited until 11:20 am(1 and half hours waiting in the bus station). We arrived in Pattaya at 1:40 PM. Dropped somewhere in Pattaya. You have to tell the driver where you want to take off. It is 2 hours late than expected.
It is ok to take but don't expect a good experience and arrive in time.

Driver fell asleep and crashed into a lorry on the motorway
We were supposed to leave Bangkok at 10:00 and arrive in Pattaya at 11:25; we didn’t leave Bangkok until 11:00 and didn’t arrive in Pattaya until 13:30. A full 2 hours late. There was also no communication about leaving late so I was sitting on the bus for an hour just waiting. I think they were waiting until the bus was at 100% occupancy
