The bus was extremely uncomfortable. The seats were narrow and there was no arm rest between the seats. There were no assigned seats, safety briefing, or water.

Both of my trips with FlixBus were amazing. The drivers were very friendly, welcoming, and nice. The whole ride was so smooth as well. I really enjoyed my experience as well as my family although we are a first timer time in the area and taking the bus.
