Pros: Was very on time Cons: Seat can be more spacious, or price should go down for how little room there was/how noisy it got sometimes. Bathroom is also not very clean and no where to wash hands

Pros: I liked how easy it was to get a ticket and then hop on the bus. The driver did his best to get there in time and he didn’t play any loud music or do anything annoying. Cons: I wish the other passengers didn’t play music out loud on their phone. I also wish it was more clear when we had time to go to the bathroom. Tips: I would suggest bringing snacks, headphones, and potentially an eye mask if you want to sleep.
