Excellent bus, but as ever the toilet is totally ignored
No soap, paper towels or toilet paper
Not a good idea on a 12 hour trip
4 out of 5 stars
James S.
The bus was comfortable and the staff were good. However when we bought the ticket they were not honest about the journey time. The scheduled arrival on the ticket was 17:45 but the staff on the coach were scheduling 19:00 and it was even later than this.
