Advantages
Good valueDisadvantages
PunctualityThere was electricity, wifi, clean toilets, nice staff and a good price.
Unfortunately, the only problem was punctuality.
The bus arrived 90 minutes late. We did get a refund, but I would have preferred a punctual bus. What could be improved in terms of comfort would be a wider range of digital media on board. The competition is much better positioned here.
