Terrible trip, the bus came late, I was not comfortable with the driving the bus was shaking going right to left, I’ve never been so scared of my life. And the bus keeps on stopping for what I don’t because there was no explanation. I was supposed to arrive at pass 9 I got here at I think 11 I had a bad trip. And where I was sitting the charging cables was not working and the bus was licking the rain was getting inside very bad. I think the drive was new or something but I was not happy. And the bathroom was not working as well.
