Person in front of us leaned his chair so far back my legs were crushed. We complained to the driver to tell him to move. People kept coughing. Chairs too close together. I was glad there was an english translation for the bus

The trip was very smooth. The drivers were polite and always kept us updated about the stops. We made three stops along the way. The bus is well-organized and equipped with a restroom and power outlets at every seat. It does get tiring due to the long duration, but it’s definitely worth it for the savings.
