All was good. My only comment is that the seats are a little too closewith little leg room.

I made a mistake in purchasing the ticket and I had no way of reversing the situation

I don’t understand the seating. There were only 10 passengers and yet we were all seated in the rear together. I was in the last seat which had no leg room. At the same time there were at least 15 empty rows.

The problem I have is with the bus terminal.There is no information on where the bus leaves from. There is information on trains but not buses. Give yourself plenty of time.
