Good and cheap! Best to get on in main cities otherwise you need to stand for a short bit! But very friendly and safe! Tell your driver if you need to be dropped futher from your station. Show him your address and he will drop you off! Might cost you 100b extra!

Drive was good, but waited over an hour for the bus. However we arrived on time. A great point was that the driver whatsapp us every time. Like that.

Our Homestay was outside the drop off zone. We did not know this when booking the trip and incurred a taxi fare we had not anticipated. As it happened the bus continued past our destination after we were dropped off.
