Everything was fine, but it was very very cold inside and we could not sleep well because of that.

The costumer service was amazing! They send me a WhatsApp with all the Information and helped me a lot when I had questions. They were really nice and the journey was great. For a sleeperbus I had a great sleep since the cabins are really luxurious. Thanks again!

Really comfy bus, the driving was a bit erratic. It was half an hour late but we were informed by whatsapp and we arrived on time to our destination.

False advertising, we never got a VIP bus for which we paid extra. The bus never arrived at the stated pickup point. We were out on another bus an hour later at another point.
