Duygu IEven though I am a woman and this could be understood from my passport, I had to sit next to a man. I don't have any problem with it but I couldn't feel comfortable while sitting. The operator should check if their customer is a woman or a man and seat them accordingly. That was not a nice experience

Luisa HThe bus arrived 4 hours before the estimated arrival time. As it was a night bus that means we arrived in the middle of the night around 4 am instead of 8 am. Make sure to have an accommodation for the night that is still open.

Helena KComfy seats, air con, USB charger. Stopped for 20 mins at dinner time. Really nice assistant & bus driver. Just ask someone at Mochit where to go, quickest way to find the company.

Guillermo Bus arrived to the destiny at 4.30h AM instead of 7.30h AM, so we should wait for the check in of my hostel in the street.

Saki They offered us a snack, water and blanket, and the seat was comfortable. Although it was supposed to arrive around 6:30 and that's why I choose this bus on purpose but it arrived at 2:30. I had to find a hostel to stay a bit and that was honestly the worst.
