EverythIng was fine but the drivers were not kind! Specially because i am not spanish😢
I loved the fact I could easily download my ticket into my phone wallet. Great service
Hard to find which bus you need to ride, so arrive at least a few minutes early and ask around. There are no signs and the bus # doesn't match, and the bus never says the destination. You have to ask. This is all of Spain, any bus company.
