It was okay except for the toilet, it’s not hygiene
Intercity Xpress is appreciated for its punctuality and cleanliness, providing a fresh travel experience. However, some users noted concerns about safety due to multiple stops made because of driver fatigue without the presence of a relief driver.
The driver didn't stop at my drop off point and left me stranded at some random petrol station all alone hours away. I had to ask for help by myself, the driver didn't care. Completely unprofessional and unacceptable

I like the fact that we arrived on time.. I didn't like that we made 3 stops as our driver sighted fatigue.. I felt our safety was compromised as he did not have a 2nd (relief) driver.
According to customer reviews, Citiliner needs to improve their punctuality as the bus was consistently 2 hours late. Additionally, customers complained about non-functioning charging ports on the bus. However, some customers mentioned that aside from these issues, the service was satisfactory.
