Unfortunately there were no toilets on the bus despite advertising it as such. The bus also did not stop foe a rocket break.

They cancelled the bus, and didn't inform me. They put me on another bus from Etap bus company, which arrived 25 minutes late - instead of 22:50h it was 23:15, and I barely caught my next bus at 23:30h at another bus station.
The driver was very friendly and did his best, but his schedule was too tight.
