I arrived at 7:00am because I like to be early. At 7:45 the bus still hadn’t arrived. At 7:55 someone took me to another bus station and I finally got on at 8:20. I seemed to be in a minivan with a family and they stopped several times to wave to people and pick up a parcel. We stopped so many times that it took over 6 hours to get to Phnom Penh. The second half of the journey was okay, except the onboard wifi was a month overdue so we were unable to connect. My arrival time in Ho Chi Minh City was originally 17:45. I arrived at 23:45!!!

reasonably well worked out, but it is heavily advertised as a single sleeper bus and not described as many different buses that are not the same as advertised at different points in the trip.

The staff make this trip so memorable. Polite, friendly and the border crossing between Cambodia and Vietnam was absolutely smooth and no issues. I recommend Giant Ibis to all travellers who want a scenic trip, excellent value and seamless transfer and travels.

I probably missed it, but the sleeper bus was only until Cambodia capital, where we had to change to a seated bus. Which didn't have the same comfort. Been woken up at 4.30 to then relocate to another bus and continue the 5+ hour journey more. The departure and arrival times were kept well.
