The seats etc were very comfortable except it was too cold. The air conditioning can be reduced as everyone was under layers of cover. The trip took almost 20 hours instead of 15 but I guess this is an exception instead of the norm as there was a bicycle race occurring. HOWEVER, the bathroom was problematic. I used it only once and there was no water in the faucet or to flush!
