ALSA receives praise for its professional drivers and amenities like personal screens, water, and headphones. However, some users noted issues with seat comfort due to wear or malfunctioning features. Additionally, there were mentions of delays without clear updates on arrival times.

Punctual start and straightforward journey thereon at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended.
