ALSA Pontevedra Bilbao recent customer reviews

A very rude lady, probably very drunk, was shouting all the time. After 9h later some people tried to calm her down but she started be very racist. Saying “puta colombiana ”. I can’t believe the driver didn’t do anything about it. It was the worst trip ever.
