Megabus Edinburgh Manchester recent customer reviews

I liked the seats. They are very spacious to accommodate legs. I did not really like the coach from Buchanan to Manchester because there was no charging point at all. There was no tissue paper in the toilet. The toilet was smelling of urine despite being flushed. No wi-fi.
