very hard to communicate with the operators, nobody knew English. we almost missed our drop-off since 1) nobody bothered to keep us informed 2) when we went and asked, they were totally non-receptive (due to language problems and lack of interest to interact). We had to bother them for 10 mins straight to even get them to look at us for the inquiry of this is our stop, cause the map showed it was.

First of all was it canceled without telling us, secondly the next bus took 8 hours instead of 5, so we ended up missing our ferry and having to stay a night in some random town
