ALSA Córdoba Málaga recent customer reviews

Its low season in the south of Spain - its an oven - only locals(less than 20 with us 3) are using this service! There seem to be little to no bus maintenance, cup holders are dirty(1 year without deep cleaning), bathroom reek of ammonia, chargers don't work, no seat light or air working properly. It's a short route, the driver was nice - we got from point a to b so it was ok!

Bus driver was on time, and gave an indication for the mid way stop. Bus had comfy leather seats that recline though dated and worn.
