BlaBlaBus Nantes Barcelona recent customer reviews

I was concerned after reading negative reviews online but had a great experience. Bus was fine, both drivers were really nice and tried to help me understand things even though I didn’t speak French and they didn’t speak English. Outlets worked and bus was clean and punctual. Would book again.
