The bus said I would arrive at 830am in Ica. I got in at 4am and was very shocked when they woke me up and told me to get off.
According to customer reviews, this night bus provides fairly comfortable seats for sleeping. However, there have been complaints about a smelly toilet and loud videos playing late at night.

At 11P.M they stopped the bus to let 2 woman get in and yell for 5 minutes for us to get some pollo sandwich while everyone was trying to sleep. Didn’t Ofer a blanked, the toilet didn’t have paper, and no one to supervise and tell people not to blast their tik tok videos all night.
