The ladies at the service desk were a bit abrupt but I get it! Bus was above expectations, extremely luxurious and comfortable. MAKE SURE TO BRING JACKET or something because it gets VERY cold with the AC on constantly.

I only gave it a 2 because they picked us up and took us to the hotel; otherwise, it would have been one star. They made us change in Da Nang, and from there, we continued with a very rude driver. He didn't explain anything, and the organizer didn't respond to messages. We also arrived more than an hour late, which, by the way, is too long for a 2.5-hour trip.
