Was actually able to sleep good for some hours! There was a toilet and some water. Good pillow and blanket. Not sure how clean tho, so I put a towel under my head.

The trip was advertised for a start at 3:30PM but then told us that it’s actually at 2PM by WhatsApp in the morning. Driver set up the pick up appointment at 1:30PM and came at 2PM without giving us any news
