My experience was very bad, the bus did not show up and I was not informed ahead of time, when I called the bus office an hour later they telle the bus won't be coming due to a breakdown.

The bus delayed for 4 hours, I was taken by a city express bus to Bloemfontein because I was the only person left at the welkom bus station, when I changed buses in Bloemfontein I left my blanket inside the City express side boot because I was already tired and confused and unfortunately the bus was going to PE whilst I was going to King Williams town the plastic bag contained the only blanket I have here at Res and now I don't have any blanket to sleep with tonight.
