Customers had a good experience with the service and would recommend it to others. However, some customers were frustrated by delays in departure due to the driver's rest period, resulting in a wait of over an hour before departure.

Journey was too long. Wouldn’t go on a coach again that has a bud transfer as it took way longer than usual.
