Good experience only down side was no Toilet on board. And the driver was such a angry person until he realized I was going to let him be that way without telling him.

The absolute worst travel experience I've had during my southeast Asian travels. For starters, the cabins were caked in what looked like years of accumulated dirt and grime. This, paired with the small beds set at a fixed, awkward angle made for a impossibke sleeping experience. The drivers attitude was shocking, attempting to drive off whilst my friends and I were still at the gas station despite there being five minutes left on the allotted break time. When confronted about this he showed no remorse, rather yelling at us to take our shoes off the second we stepped aboard again. Finally, the buses toilet located at the back and above the engine was unfathomably hot and unsurprisingly mirrored the same level of hygiene as the rest of the cabin. I implore any travellers considering this bus service to avoid it at all costs! Many other alternatives exist which offer far greater and more comfortable experiences.

Overall pretty good trip, only thing was when booking online I didn't realize I booked 3 top bunks so one of my friends was not in the same room, I think this should be made more clear when booking.

I saw some mixed reviews but our experience was quite good. Everything went smoothly and we were able to board without problems. The cabin was comfortable and we were provided with some drinks and snacks. The views were also wonderful.
