Bernard K1,5 hour late. Driver played loud techno music and talked very loudly all the time. Impossible to sleep for 16 hour ride. A lot of bugs in my bed.

Brett TThis was a very difficult ride. There was confusion with regard to bus transfers, an angry driver, another bus transfer. Not all sleeper rides are bad, but just remember you get what you paid for.😅
