Hi,

As i posted eariler, I'm taking a bus to Santiago due to my knees..

With my limited Spanish, I asked local people for the bus terminal location.

I think the correct location is Ambasmesta (Valcarce hotel), but people at the hotel is telling me that i should go to Ambasmestas. When I look up these two places on google maps, both of them pop up.

I'm a little bit confused because I can't simply ignore what local people say.

Could anyone please give me an advice?
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
The ALSA website shows: Carretera Nacional Vi, Km. 428 S/n , Ambasmesta
(Hostal Valcarcel )

The map pin is at the truck stop/hotel.
 
Hi,

The Alsa website shows the stop at Hotel Valcarce. It also refers to Ambasmestas and Ambasmesta in respect of the same stop. See today's remaining schedule and map below.
Note : There is a bus at 05:45 am as well if you are leaving on another day.
