We were asked to be at the bus stop 30 minutes before departure. At 9pm for a 9:30 departure. Thean from the bus was contacting me at 8:45 asking where I am and telling me to hurry up. I explained I was in the taxi and would be there around 9 so still long before the bus was due to deoart. He then told me he couldn't wait any longer and left without us telling us to go to the next station. I then had to ask my taxi driver to help with this and we had to pay him to take us to the next station despite it not even being 9 yet at this point. We were very unhappy being screwed around and I ended up having to pay the taxi driver significantly more than originally due to him running around finding the bus. After arriving at the bus stop I was asking a bus driver of that company I'lf this was the bus to Sapa and he told me to go stand eosewhere and dismissed me. I asked a passenger and found out this bus was going to Hoi an or something.. More people arrived for the sapa bus and started boarding the Hoi an bus that was there only for him to get angry at them but never answer about what was happening. Onr girl even started getting into someone from the boi and buses bed where there was so little communication. Once in the bus it was great but everything before was awful

Overall solid transport. We arrived over one hour late, but that’s still kinda acceptable

They were very supportive on WhatsApp and picked me up on time. There was an issue with airconditioner at the bed I couldn't fully stop it so it was very cold night.

Confortable and on time travel. Staff behaviour has been a little bit rude.

A little disorganized on arrival at the office because they don't send the precise address, just the name of the office, but the trip went well.
