This time everything was really very good. Reasonable prices, no delays, enough space, fast journey and friendly staff. Another positive aspect was that the driver was very friendly and chatted to the passengers over the loudspeakers during the journey. The toilet was clean and the wifi was very stable throughout the journey. We were on the road for about 2 hours. The seats were very comfortable.
