It was a smooth ride, the only thing is the toilet. It is kind of smelly and no toilet paper!

The staff that was helping with the luggages was extremely rude to us. We made a mistake about the amount of suitcases that we were allowed but the man was shouting to us and being very rude and arrogant towards us even when I was apologizing.
