The bus was comfortable except that there was no toilet facilities on the bus. 4 hours is too long without a toilet available.

The bus was booked for today at 12h25 from Santiago Compostela para Porro, at this hour there was bus in the terminal. A driver from this company said that this bus didn't existed and that we should contacto the company to re-schedule for another bus in the same day. In the information center of the terminal no help was possible. After 2 emails and 3 calls to the company they finally send us new tickets for 16h45. The new tickets were for places in the bus that also didn't existed and we had to find different free places in the bus, I had to move twice because the "owner" of the place arrived ...
