Big comfy seats. Not many stops. Only issue was that the air conditioning broke down and we had to transfer to another bus. The new bus arrived after about one half hour, so not a big deal.

We booked the bus due to arrival time being 6am in La Serena, already knowing we would have to wait 2 hours before our accomodation opens. The bus actually arrived at 3:45am, meaning we were forced to sit in a bus station for an extra 2 hours. This was very unsafe and impractical.
