The bus was dark, there was no wifi, additionally the window was broken and not fully shut and made lots of noise on the highway. The seats were broken and did not recline upwards. Although the bus driver was punctual and kind, I would rather do rider express or the any bus service. This was literally a U-Haul truck sized bus.
