Citilink receives praise for its friendly and attentive drivers, as well as the overall comfort of their buses. Many users appreciate the punctuality and smooth rides offered by Citilink. However, some passengers noted a lack of amenities such as charging ports, curtains on windows, reclining seats, air-conditioning or an onboard bathroom.
Time management is their priority Good service to the drivers both What I did not like is that the bus doesn't have inner bathroom No terminals to charge our phones no air-conditioning Manual windows tha lt irritates sometimes when other passengers open them

There was a heater, it was warm that was nice. No charging port didn't enjoy that. The bus being changed from citilink to ramalos, but they did send messages and called to keep me updated.

I booked a ticket with Citilink expecting a Citilink bus, but upon arrival, I was put on a Freeway Coaches bus instead. There was no prior notification, explanation, or apology provided for this sudden change. The conditions inside the bus were unacceptable: Comfort & Space: The seats were extremely hard and uncomfortable. The seating arrangement was severely cramped with virtually no legroom or space between seats, forcing passengers to squeeze against one another for the entire trip. Timeliness: The service was unprofessional regarding schedules. The bus departed late and arrived long after the scheduled arrival time. Journey: The delay was made worse by numerous unnecessary stops along the route. When passengers pay for a specific brand's service, they expect that standard of quality and clear communication if changes occur. I am very disappointed with this experience and would not recommend booking through Citilink based on this trip.
