Advantages
Fair priceDriving despite heavy snowbeen on timeDisadvantages
Bus was way too warmSeats not so comfortableMy journey by bus from Munich to Rijeka was extremely satisfactory. It was easy to charge my mobile phone on the bus. Furthermore, the price-performance ratio is outstanding. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The only thing to criticise about the journey was that it was almost 30 degrees in the bus. I think this is a bit inappropriate when the outside temperature is minus 6 degrees.
