Megabus UK receives mixed feedback from users. While some appreciate that the bus managed to make up for delays en route, others mention discomfort due to limited space between seats and bumpy rides. Additionally, there are concerns about the location of stops being difficult to find and uncomfortable waiting conditions at night.

It was a freezing cold day the driver assisted me with my luggage and was very polite. The coach was very clean comfortable and warm. Also I was very impressed with the interior design of the seats.

I will not be using it again. The stop is in an awful place, took ages to find it, says on your site arrive at least 10 mins before {I arrived 20 to be on the safe side}. The bus was 10 mins late. The stop was cold and miserable I felt uncomfortable being a woman on her own in such a dark place. I sat in a seat at the front of the bus as I cannot easily walk upstairs it was bumpy so much so I got a bit travel sick.

The assistant of driver was soo direspectful, Rude, didn't even know how to speak with passengers, acting like we were sitting in the bus for free and didn't pay for the tickets.
