I was placed in the back and after asking the organiser if it’s possible to move to the front because I get sick in the back easily he denied. There was still free space at that time and it would have been easy to move me to the front.

It was good in general with the caveat that it started and finished 1,5 hours later

I had a very disappointing experience with this bus company. During a 5-hour journey we were given only one toilet break, which is far from sufficient. The drivers talked loudly, laughed, and kept honking the horn repeatedly throughout the ride, making it impossible to rest. The driving style was extremely aggressive, and there were no seat belts available, which made the trip feel unsafe. This was supposed to be a sleeper bus for long-distance travel, but with all the noise and reckless driving, getting any sleep was absolutely impossible. Overall, it was a complete joke. I do not recommend this company at all.
