According to multiple reviews, the service is friendly and slightly late due to traffic. The bus itself is great with a good driver and timing, although there are some negative aspects mentioned. On the positive side, customers appreciate that it's comfortable, clean, fast, and has WiFi. However, there are complaints about the bus being consistently 15+ minutes late. Additionally, there have been issues with the booking method not allowing users to download their tickets without an extra charge of £8 for a printout copy.
