BlaBlaCar Bus Setúbal Madrid recent customer reviews

My experience was very disappointing. The information about the departure location was incorrect, the bus was delayed, and I received no notification or assistance. I waited for around two hours and ultimately missed the bus because it departed from a different location than the one stated on my ticket. I had to buy another ticket for €32.82. Overall, the service was poorly organised and frustrating.
