Bus was on time to pick us up and to drop us off. It was a very comfortable ride with Air conditioning.

On the bus ticket, they put a different location to where the bus was actually departing. I was stood there waiting for ages, then I saw the bus drive away in the distance. Confused, I walked to the location I saw it depart from, and showed the woman at the counter that it showed a completely different location, and all she did was laugh in my face, shrug, and made me buy another ticket for the next bus. I had honestly never felt so disrespected.

Great experience. Only negative but more of a terminal issue vs byline was the lack of boarding platform information.

I travel very often from Albufeira to Lisbon, return. I always avoid Renex as they are normally crowed and never stick to schedule, and drivers not very worried.
