Very friendly driver and staff. Didn’t enjoy movies playing to the whole bus and were also delayed by over an hour.

The bus was clean and comfortable. There was some traffic so we arrived late but can’t help that. The driver was kind and helpful when I asked him to make sure I got off at the right stop.
