On time. Comfortable vehicle although being in the front seats had little leg room.

The travel was really nice and the car really clean. I put 4 star because we start our trip 30 minutes later.

They changed us to another bus what departure half hour later, so we have to wait more than one hour (you have to go early) and nobody sent an email and nothing to inform this. They said our original bus was full and they sell out our seats. (We had our check in and the confirmation already) They changed our seats in the new bus too, but after speak with the girl she give us the original seat in the new bus. Finally the bus arrived in time to the city

Perfect trip, arrived in Battambang earlier than expected 4,5h. We were given water and stopped several times to go to the toilet.
The space between seats is very narrow, a minibus.
The only thing that is not well located on Google Maps the stop in Phnom Penh, you have to put in the search engine: Saly VIP (Phnom Penh).

El viaje perfecto, llegó a Battambang antes de lo esperado 4,5h. Nos dieros agua y paró varias veces para ir al WC.
El espacio entre asientos es muy estrecho, un minibus.
Lo único que no esta bien situado en Google Maps la parada en el Phnom Penh, hay que poner en el buscador: Saly VIP (Phnom Penh)
