Bus was comfortable but could have been a bit cleaner. Driver took some of the bends a bit fast and the music was a bit loud.

The bus got me to the airport. However there was none WiFi and the bathroom door was broken so I couldn’t use it. I think that there could be a better process for loading luggage and lining up for the bus
