The bus was comfortable enough, but it was terribly cold. We tried to cover the air conditioning vents with jackets and clothes, but it didn’t help. I couldn’t sleep the whole night because it was unbearably cold.

Bus was comfortable just remember to book seats with B mentioned so you can get the upper portion and take early numbers like 3 4 5 6 etc otherwise your ba kache elevates while sleeping on bua tyre and roads are very bumpy. There was one small insect which keeps us anxious whole night other than that our sihanoukville to siem reap night sleeper bus travel was all smooth and it arrived 20min early too. It is highly recommended because it was the cheaper option yet very comfortable.

The beds were too small and not long enough. Too many stops and almost no highway, therefore a lot of bumpy roads. The restaurant stop was aweful. The restaurant was dirty, the toilets were disgusting. Only good thing, we got to our destination 30 minutes earlier. The pick-up point was wrong. Some locals helped us to find the right pick-up point.

We had a 10-hour night trip. The bus itself is comfortable. There are restrooms available. However, the driver drives like a maniac, honks his horn every 10 minutes even in the middle of the night, and brakes in a very unpleasant way. The meal break takes you to a dirty place where the food is not good and expensive.

Beds are too small. I'm only 5'11 and my head and feet where touching either end. If you have any sort of hand luggage with you there is nowhere to store it so that takes up valuable space as the space is also extremely narrow.
