Diamante Mexico City Acapulco recent customer reviews
We choose Diamante because of the luxury bus experience. This one was below standards. Refreshments were limited to 2 choices, coffee machine in lobby was broken, chairs on bus noisily rattled and leg recliner was broken. Guests on bus were loud and obnoxious, lifting feet onto my chair which resulted in my head being kicked twice before I smacked their feet off. I know that Diamante had no control over this, but it would have been not as hard if my chair wasn't broken and could at least have rested on the trip.
Me gustaría que sus asientos la parte donde pone uno los pies, fuera más arriba porque se siente muy abajo para poner los pies y acostar el asiento
Very comfortable bus with nice amenities - only issue was lack of USB charging facilities on bus even though their information said their buses had these. However, even with this one issue, I was very impressed with their service and would highly recommend them to others.
