On the bookings online, your app indicates that the toilet is available but on board the bus there's no toilet.
Secondly, There's no sufficient space in betwe
en chairs - leg stretching is very difficult. Charging ports are not functional.
As a compliment, the bus was very warm.

Bus was clean and the driver was super amazing, he would check if everybody is back from every stop we take and also the bus was on time even though my seat wasn't inclining but that was not a train smash. I did not know where i was going and i missed my stop, if only I heard the driver shouting to each stop I wouldn't have got lost
