Pacifico Tijuana Guadalajara recent customer reviews

I was brought to my destination safely and on time. However, the bus was not as I had read on the reviews, the seats were old and uncomfortable, the Tv where blinking and couldn’t hear the movies, there was No wifi or USB chargers and every time someone use the restroom stunk up the entire bus. Soon enough I also realized I had over paid.
