Users have highlighted the comfort of the seats and the friendliness of the drivers as positive aspects of the bus service. Additionally, having individual charging slots was appreciated. However, there were concerns about the lack of adequate toilet facilities for long journeys and the need for better communication regarding delays, as some experienced significant waits without updates.

The seats were comfortable for the long distance. Having my own charging slot was a bonus as my phone's battery does not last long. Also Ablution on-the bus seemed to be the very interesting feature

No I did not enjoy. The bus was not serviced and we broke down after Bloem. We had to wait a new bus. I was suppose to arrive at 9h00am in Pretoria, instead I arrived at 18h00. That is not fair.
