The Drivers were friendly. I was pleased with the frequency of stops for 10 minute breaks. The bus was clean and warm. The charging points worked. I was comfortable and felt safe as the driving was good and within speed limit (I had opened an app to check how fast we are driving🤗) which put me at ease.
