Power outlets good, temperature good, on schedule good. Driver bad (kept correcting causing the bus to rock back and forth, which in turn kept causing the bathroom door to open creating a bathroom smell throughout the bus. No wifi, despite advertising free wifi, my understanding is this an outright lie as noe of the buses have wifi
