The bus smells really bad

The ride was good and reliable. Unfortunately we had the rearmost seats where the engine makes louder and air conditioning noise. Can recommend this ride. If you understand the language, we are pointed to the food included in the ticket at a restroom stop.

Phones cannot be charged. One aisle has call button ( which is of no use ! ) and order side does not ! Seats are loose or the adjustment does not work effectively. Trains on the whole is too outdated but no complains on service with a smile ! Nice staff !

Pro: -Bus was comfortable, cheap and there were even some snacks and water. Cons: -The whole bus smelled like pee once the toilet door was opened. -Unfortunately we stopped multiple times an hour without any obvious reason which led to a total drive time 8 instead of 6,5 hours.
Bus Express, Suwannatee (สุวรรณนทีขนส่ง), Aug 10, 2023
AH
Comfortable buses, strong AC but not too cold as long as the sun is out. Delayed arrival, due to a large part of dropping off passengers at various points of the journey.
