BlaBlaBus Brussels Rotterdam recent customer reviews

The seat and leg room was decent, but the seat arrangement is pretty chaos. Too many ppl took other ppl seats, therefore to claim the seats you've booked weren't possible without call the attention of everyone on board. There's one passenger with a seat number 15E, where as this number has never exist in the bus

It was very hot on the bus and I don’t mind that the driver took a brake, to the contrary, because it’s important but instead of 10 minutes it was about 30 minutes

Police stopped the bus for reckless driving- driver wan't able to pay the fine, so we spent 40 minutes waiting for them to find a solution
