I travelled from Vienna to Salzburg a few days ago, the first time by bus, and overall I was very satisfied. The journey was pleasant and short (it took about 4 hours), but there was also a crying baby on the bus, which was a bit annoying. The bus was well equipped with wifi and power sockets. Unfortunately, there was no toilet. Nevertheless, I would do this journey again.
