Bus was cramped. Driver had bad attitude. We arrived very early which is an indication of how safe we felt. I think they pay the drivers a set amount for the trip. Maybe if they paid them an hourly rate the wouldn’t drive so erratically. Pick up point was very vague.

I arrived at the bus office to learn that there was no room for me on the bus from DaLat to Hoi An. The worker could book me on another service for the following day which was not an option for my travel plans. They said they cancelled my ticket and would be refunded. I have not been refunded

This is not the same style of bus that you may have taken in Ho Chi Minh City to dalat. This is far smaller and worst quality. It it is a “sleeper bus” and it did get us where we needed

I am 192 cm and side sleeper, comfort is not the best but with a little bent legs sleep is possible. Bring earplugs as the engine noises and/or honking is loud. Also recommend a seat (there were two) on the back row that has no length limit if you are long

Extremely uncomfortable seats unless you’re super small. We barely got any sleep it also didn’t help that at 3 am they turned on all of the lights and the constant honking was unbearable. At least the travelling time is correct.

The bus was an hour late to Nha Trang, which i suppose is expected in Vietnam. The ‘cabins’ are good with a blanket and pillow, and also USB charge point. WiFi is good. The TV’s are useless and no way to control them or interact like on a plane with touch screen.
During the night, there were many short stops, but the staff and driver made no attempt to let anybody know they were stopping or for how long etc. You had to just guess.
Finally, random people kept getting on and off throughout the journey, and sleeping in the corridor which was strange but I suppose not terrible either. Just was conscious of anyone wanted to Rob things, this would be an easy way to do it

The driver drives with constant jerks, the road is full of holes but bearable, no cushion on my seat. We can't choose our seat with this company, they send us a WhatsApp message to confirm but don't reply when we ask for something... the driver picked us up last and in a hurry, left our luggage in the middle of the aisle without paying attention when putting it on (very hurried).
To arrive at 6 a.m. instead of 5 a.m. (please note that hostels and hotels do not check in before 2 p.m.). Timetable to be reviewed !!!!
At every bump, the air-conditioning settings opened... and it was very loud! Take a sweater

Le chauffeur conduit avec des a-coups sans arrêt, la route est pleine de trou mais supportable, pas de coussin sur mon siège. On ne peut pas choisir sont siège avec cette compagnie, ils nous envoient un message WhatsApp pour confirmer mais ne répondent plus lorsque nous demandons quelque chose… le chauffeur nous a prit en dernier et en vitesse, a laissé nos bagages en pleins milieu de l’allée sans faire attention en le mettant (très pressé)
Pour arriver à 6h au lieu de 5h (attention hostel ou hôtel ne fait le Check in avant 14h) horaires à revoir !!!!
À chaque bosse les réglages de la Clim s’ouvrait… et elle était très forte ! Prenez un pull

The bus left and arrived on time which was great but the driver was awful. Erratic driving and continuous over usage of the horn so no one could sleep.

The staff was rude, yelling (in Vietnamese) and pushing us into the bus with our backpacks. He made the other travelers laugh by saying something in Vietnamese, which was pretty uncomfortable. Since the luggage room in the bus was filled with some boxes, we had to store our big backpacks inside the bus with the narrow paths.
There was no stops on our 11 hours trip to Danang. At least we weren’t told at any point. The driver was smoking inside the bus.
At least the seats were ok comfortable and had pillows and USB ports.
