The terminal was easy to navigate with friendly staff. The bus was comfortable. The temperature was too cool though & there was water dripping onto our seat from above.
The bus itself was very nice. The trip was supposed to be 8 hours and ended up being 12 hours. The bus driver kept letting hagglers on the bus to sell us things

terrible , it was late by around 5 hours as the driver would stop to have a ciggarete
It was terrible. Our bus was scheduled to get into Medellin at 7.30pm, by that time we were only halfway there, I asked the driver why we were so delayed and he simply said we will get there at midnight and blamed the traffic even though every hour we were stopping so they could smoke cigarettes for 5/10 minutes. Midnight came and we still weren’t in Medellin and then the bus broke down, there was no communication to the passengers about what they were doing, at 2.30am another bus from a different company stopped and took us the rest of the way, we didn’t get to our hotel till 4am!
We stuck 5 hours in the middle of no where and the driver was very mad all the time

we were seated seperatley with my himusband and it was cold in bus. We arrived 2 hours later in destination.
The bus was very safe and punctual however it was so hot on board and the road so twisty that I had to get off to be sick. Not ideal really but I survived
Very bad smell on the bus in general and was situated beside the toilet to add to the already bad smell

It was a fine overnight trip. It arrived a bit early, so I had a coffee as the sun could finish coming up before I went out to visit public transit.
Bus was much longer than expected. When stopping for lunch we weren’t informed of the bus leaving and were nearly left.
The bus I had reservations on was broken. I had to use a replacement bus, by another vendor, and it ran very late.
