The journey was supposed to take just over four hours but instead took close to seven.

Comfortable ride. Good driver. Only about 20 minutes late departure due to the bus arriving late. Expect to pay to have your ticket printed at the station even if you already print them yourself. Overall recommend.

We had already half an hour delay when the bus scratched a truck on the highway... So not only this raised some safety questions but this led to more than an hour delay in total

Bus driver was smoking while driving and told everyone to put their small bags in the luggage compartment even if they fitted under the seat. I had my medicine and personal belongings in there and told him I needed it. He insisted, got loud and said he wouldn't start driving otherwise. When people got in at the next station 2 hours later, all of a sudden he didn't care anymore and they were allowed to keep their bags. So useless and rude. Also arrived 1 1/2 hours later than expected

The process getting tickets was excellent. The only issue we had was not stopping for a meal.
