Well apart from booking to the airport and the bus not actually going there my experience was positive. Staff on the bus were amazing and they let me on an earlier bus due to the fact they weren't going where I thought I had booked.

Excellent experience. I had made online booking from India &was quite apprehensive about the journey. But to my surprise there was hardly any difficulty in locating the bus or during the journey despite of language barrier. Staff was more than helpful . Overall it was value for money.
