Great staff and everything just really late leaving Byron. When I checked the bus tracker it said it was still in Sydney so a couple of glitches

The bus broke down at 2am and was incredibly cold inside because it wasn't turned back on. The driver was fantastic but I feel like there should have been better organization incase this happens.

It was very disappointing to ride with the bus, too much noise, uncomfortable.
