There were no facilities at Leon Bus Station for luggage storage or place to eat as construction work appeared to be taking place. I had a 3 hour wait on my connection and had to avail of the train station facilities which was 10 minutes walk away.
Mary C.
The seats were uncomfortable and the person in front of me put his seat back and I was trapped in the seat! When I tried to put my seat back, the woman in back of me pushed it forward saying that it was too uncomfortable because of her size! Much more tight than any airplane!!
