Thought that such a long trip would be awful and it really wasn't.
Very late to depart and NO information provided as to what was going on:a complete disgrace. Customers were left in total ignorance as to amount of delay or its causes,
Everything was perfect unfortunately I left my stuff in the bus
The drivers were so considerate of me a mother, travelling with her two minors below the age of 3yrs. I didn't feel rushed, they assisted me with my luggage and were polite and friendly to the children. My children felt comfortable in the coach. We usually travel by train or using our own vehicle. We arrived a lot earlier than scheduled. That was a bonus.
Everything was fine, air condition, heating, staff were absolutely fine!!! Thanks very much!! (One little thing, what is very important for the long travelling: The toilet was so smelly)
Bus had a funky smell, general people BO and urine (possibly from the toilets)
Seats needed cleaning. Staff lovely. Great drivers. Toilet yucky.
The coach was about an hour late. Though there were staff around no one told ups anything about why the coach was kate. No reassurance from staff. Passengers were left standing in the cold.
Wished the driver would put on the air-conditioning as it was quite warm and stuffy plus the extra hour delay reaching Mamchester didn't help
The drivers were polite and helpful, timely and well driven
