Very comfortable seats but my husband sat on the aisle and said that it was freezing. He had long pants and a winter coat on and still it was too cold.

Not great - bus was over two hours late, my seat was filthy when I did board, the AC unit was leaking all over me and the man opposite me and we arrived at the destination 4 hours later than advertised

The bus was shaking violently the whole time. Especially when the driver was braking. I could not relax and sometimes my head was bounced off the headrest. I believe there is some defect with this bus.
