It is a good service, as a foreigner who doesn't speak Spanish, it is a little bit confusing when there are two buses departing to same destination side to side. The driver helps us and it was all good

The bus was clean, air conditioned and on time so absolutely nothing to complain about.

30 July 2024

The overall bus condition, the cleanliness and the staff encounter was good. However the travellers behind us did not let us recline our seats due to the less legroom. I would appreciate if that can be fixed.
