At TAPO, it wasn't clear which terminal it was departing but I asked around where it was. The boarding process was smooth. The seat was comfortable.Toilet was good. No wifi. DVD played with loud volume. Only a 10-min stop for bus driver to rest so bring your drinks and food well.

ADO Platino Mexico City Oaxaca recent customer reviews
disaster, we asked multiple boarding staff about our 23.59 bus to Oaxaca,we arrived at 23.00. even told to wait when it was delayed, we ended up missing our bus. there was another ado bus to Oaxaca at 23.59 that was not platinum, very confusing for the staff and us. no one checked our tickets, and we were told we had to pay for another platinum ticket half price each, so another £60 to get a later bus. with 1 minute to spare! and they were not apologetic.

The seats were very comfortable and spacious. I felt safe in the overnight bus as a solo traveler. The lounge was nice coming into oaxaca, however in the platino lounge in mexico city TAPO there were no additional refreshments in the lounge. I would highly recommend this service.

It was the weekend before Christmas, so I suspect lots of busses were running late, but we didn't get into Oaxaca until around 10pm. We were scheduled to arrive at 5:30. Otherwise the bus and staff were great.
