The bus was quite comfortable, but unfortunately, there were cockroaches on the boat. The seats were uncomfortable. But overall, it was okay.

Hot, packed and confusing

It was a nice experience (to any extent an overnight bus can be). The bus was on time, made the stops mentioned in a very detailed schedule. The office was easy to find and the staff was very friendly allowing us to keep our baggage there as advertised. On the bus we got a blanket which was a nice touch, there was enough leg room and the AC wasn’t too crazy - the blanket was enough with no need for a hoodie or a sweater. Connecting buses and ferry worked with no problem. It was overall well organised experience for a very reasonable price.

very good experience, everything was simple when transferring to the boat, only two opportunities to grab food which are 6 hours apart so make sure to bring snacks

We had some issues getting on the ferry exacerbated by a language barrier, but the driver worked hard and found a ferry for all of us. I was very happy.

The bus seats were worn out, and the toilet was completely dirty before the first passengers had even used it. Absolutely disgusting! 🤮

The bus was very comfortable, which made the trip enjoyable despite the long distance. However, I was surprised by the driver's behavior: he stopped several times to buy fruit and other products on the side of the road, then made further stops to resell them (I clearly saw money being exchanged). While this wasn't directly dangerous, I found it inappropriate, especially since passengers had to wait for him without being able to get off the bus. Despite this negative point, I still recommend this route for its comfort and convenience. A little more professionalism from the driver would be appreciated, however!
