BlaBlaBus Amsterdam Heidelberg recent customer reviews

The bus broke down at Cologne airport and we had to wait for 3 hours for repeal. The driver didn't speak English and couldn't explain absolutely everything. Also, whilst it was 6am and everyone wanted at least to sleep, he kept shouting like crazy on the phone. I didn't wait for it to get repaired and just left with another bus. Very unpleasant experience...
