I was happy with how comfortable the bus is and its clean, however I was not overall happy the the experience. The bus was scheduled for 11:30, and it only arrived at 01:50am. And there was not communication from Intercity, and the expected delay and the reason for the delay.

The bus ride was exceptional however we had to wait for 3 hours for it to arrive at the pick up station. I was very disappointed that I had to be the one calling to get updates instead of being told by Citiliner where the bus was.
