Nataliia OAt first, we were very surprised to discover that two passengers were assigned to one bed. We had not been informed about this in advance. If we had not been travelling together, we might have had to share a bed with a complete stranger, which is absolutely unacceptable.
The whole journey was very poorly organised. We were not informed about the scheduled stops. When the bus stopped for the first time, the driver simply got off, bought something for himself and then got back on the bus without explaining anything to the passengers.
After travelling approximately 100 km, the bus broke down. At first, we were told nothing and were simply left waiting inside the bus. Even after an hour, nobody had informed us what had happened, how long we would have to wait or whether another bus was coming. We eventually got off the bus ourselves and had to wait for more than three hours for a replacement bus.
The second bus was much better and more comfortable, but the fact that two passengers were still assigned to one bed was very strange and uncomfortable.
When we finally arrived in Pakse, nobody informed us that we had reached our destination. There were no announcements or clear communication at any point.
The only positive thing was that both buses had toilets on board, which was very helpful during such a long journey.
Overall, this was a very disappointing experience due to the poor organisation, lack of communication and uncomfortable sleeping arrangements. Passengers should be informed about these conditions in advance, and the company should provide much better communication and service.

Aurore The bus didn't drop us off at the indicated location, forcing us to take a paid tuk-tuk to get to the center of Pakse... otherwise, it would have been a 45-minute walk.

Nhật LThe road is bumpy. Can't use toilet on the bus. Don't take this, book a flight. The only good thing was the bus was on time.

Remy GIt was ok and on time but just for you to know, the bed is not that long, I'm 181cm and it bend a bit the knees. Also, there was no food and stops during the trip. There was small bottes of water.

Kevin BWe'd heard horror stories about the sleeper bus, so we're expecting the worst, but in fact it was pretty good. The bus has two decks, an upper and a lower. Each deck has bunks down each side of the isle. Each bunk is low to the floor with a thin mattress about the size of a standard single bed, but they are sold for two people to a bunk, so you will have to get cosy with whoever you're sharing with.
It was, fairly comfortable and we did manage to sleep , so much so that I woke up to find the bus almost empty as most of the passengers had already got off.
The only issue was the inconsiderate passenger on the bunk opposite ours, who thought it OK to play annoying reels on her phone with the volume turned up at 03:20 in the morning.

Leanne SBus left 20 minutes late. They did not stop anywhere for a toilet break. There was a toilet on the bus but it was not in a condition to use.
Arrived 1 hour and 30 minutes early.
Seats where very small and bus was really old and dirthy.

James DI booked with the most expensive carrier because it was the only one that had individual berths. Two German women I met bought the cheapest carrier for $12 less than I paid and we all were on the same bus by an entirely different carrier. I had to share my berth with another man. The mattress was extremely hard and uncomfortable but the road was smooth and we arrived one and one half hour earlier than expected.

Luke AIt's a bit cramped if you're tall but was fine for one night. Arrived early which was nice. Lights go off pretty early which is annoying If you're not tired. No curtains for privacy either

Elzbieta ZI think the bus station is a bit to navigate. When it's not big or super confusing to navigate. The moment the bus is ready to board could be more clear.
