The buses are dirty. It looks like they have ever been cleaned. I even found a used tampon under my seat which was absolutely disgusting. The toilets do not have water, soap and toilet paper.

Good experience: More or less on time, driver drove safely, seats were good. I had a preassigned seat on my ticket but the driver changed the seat when I entered the bus. The seat I got in the end was better so I didn't mind.
