Slightly uncomfortableMy journey with Flixbus from Madrid to Seville was a pleasant one. Booking online was easy and the ticket was cheap. The bus left on time at 8.00 am. My seat was somewhat comfortable, but the volume on the bus was sometimes high. There was wifi and power sockets, which was handy. The driver, Carlos, was friendly and helped me when I thought my luggage was lost. The toilets were clean and the bus was well maintained. The five-hour direct bus arrived in Seville on time. The price-performance ratio was good.
