This particular bus did not have a partition between the driver and the passengers. The driver played loud music during the 24 hours. This woud not have mattered if there had been a partition to block the noise. I asked him to turn the music down and he turned it off for a short while, while we left the bus but it came back on. I could not sleep because of this and that is why I marked only 3 stars.

My destination in my ticket says Terminal Norte. The driver stopped at Terminal Sur, far south and refused to continue even if I showed him my ticket. I was NOT prepared how to go from there to my hotel. Please tell them to respect their ticket destination.
