Heater was too hot and switched on the whole journey and I dislike how the chairs can recline all the way down making it uncomfortable for passenger behind…there must be a limit on how far you can recline your seat

The bus was 1 hour late with no communication for me to know that is delayed. Toilets were full of urine and very smelly from the pickup points.

Bus was an hour late, on reaching Bloemfontein another hour was spent standing while the drivers were searching for an unknown person. so basically I reached my destination two hours plus late.
