The bus smelled TERRIBLE!!!
I almost vomited when getting in, and I was not the only one complaining. It's a smell of urine that like a week old. It's TERRIBLE!

The journey was awful. The bus broke down the first time, and they did a makeshift job to try to fix it, but this was deemed to be futile as it broke down again. We were parked for about 2 hours, if not more, at each point when the bus broke down. Eventually, we switched buses in East London after waiting for what felt like all morning. From KZN, I was supposed to arrive in Grahamstown at 6.15 AM, yet I only arrived at 11.20. I am not impressed at all.
