It was a very good experience and I would recommend this service. Great bus driver!
Very good service, easy to find station, clean buses! Although, there was a guy smoking, this shouldn’t be allowed or even tolerated. The person should have been taken out of the bus immediately
The bus was 2 hours delayed and the staff did not really apologized and let us wait.
