Kuala Lumpur to Hat Yai Destination Reviews
NS
Natasha STicket office staff was very helpful, the coach seat was comfortable.usb ports on this coach didn't work and neither did the WiFi but there were regular stops and there were two drivers who supported eachother well to assure our safety. The drivers were very efficient getting us through immigration and we arrived a lot earlier than anticipated. Overall it was a great experience, but I wouldn't say the coach is super nice, it OK lah

Genevieve This was an overnight bus, but that didn’t stop the driver talking to his mates most of the way. That was a little annoying and kept us awake, but what was most grotesque was the one who had this awful cough, and where he‘d hack up and then spit every 10 mins or so. It was truly disgusting and a sound that will probably haunt me forever. The coach was fine enough. But I felt far from rested on arrival.

Libby HBus was about half an hour late getting to Hat Yai. It was very comfortable and the breaks for the toilet were well spaced out. The staff helped us with our immigration cards and we’re friendly.
