I was not given a choice of seat on the bus and was automatically given a seat in the middle isle. I with no window. Staff on the bus had two beds that were by the windows but only used them sporadically so it would have made sense for them to have the smaller units.

I booked domestic airplane but as a foreigner I thought terminal 1 as it's Ho Chi Minh to Danang. But I had to scramble to get to Terminal 3! Lucky I had ample time.

We booked 4 tickets together but when we got to the train we were split. Locals get better spots. But the toilets were kept clean. Food options were not great. We took water and snacks.

Drivers and conductors don't bother to speak english; you’ll be left clueless unless you speak Vietnamese. Pick-up and drop-off locations in the booking are from small vans to send you to their office. As I was the only one to be picked up, they booked for a grab bike for me instead of the van as it was cheaper (for them). We were dropped off in their office but no one mentioned there was a minivan to come to send us to the booked destination. Had to book grab bike at my expense instead. As for the bus itself, the entertainment screen was useless, there was no wifi or even power in the outlets. I was alone in the cabin though so atleast there’s that. As a foreigner with no vietnamese and despite being among the first to board, I was sent on the farthest cabin and on the top one, next to the toilet (the worst for shaking and potential smell). You may want to reconsider booking this operator, or via 12go and try Vexere instead so you could book the exact seat you want.
