The bus stop is clean, with seats available, and there are restaurants nearby where you can have dinner. The staff will call you as soon as the bus arrives, but please make sure to return on time. My bus was delayed for 15 minutes waiting for one passenger to finish his meal.

Just a little bit noisy. For the rest, everything was fine. Train arrived on time (started from Ninh Binh 10 minutes in advance, beware!)

No announcements from driver on stops. I just happen to wake up and noticed we stopped. Got off bus for bathroom break and bus driver told me to just pee on the ground next to the bus

Shaky and really narrow beds. No toilet and not enough toilet stops (or I woke up too late because they don’t tell you you can go pee)

Very exhausting

Although a bit short the bed was comfy, and the driver did a good job. However there's a blue light around the usb port that you can't turn off, even though it's kinda bright.... That is the thing that woke me up the most during the trip.
