The bus ride was comfortable (seats and air-conditioning). The bus had WiFi and power for my phone. I didn't like how the employees immediately asked for a tip to put your bags on the bus. They were very assertive with this request.

The day od travel the weather was bad - it poured rain almost all day way through to Bariloche. All front seats at the upper deck were affected with water dripping from everywhere onto the passengers. The staff when notified, tried to prove that if one sits in a certain position, will not be affected by water - ridiculous, especially on a 7+ hours ride. It was also very cold on the bus but even when the staff was asked to put the heating on, that was not done.
