Facilities in the bus from Santiago to Leon

[Deacon Harbey Santiago]

Folks,

As I'm getting ready to depart in less that 24 hours, it occurred to me that I do not know much about the 5 hour trip from SDC to Leon. The basic question I have:

1) Are there any "facilities" in the buss so that one can answer the "call of nature"?
2) Are there any breaks in the 5 hour trip, so that one can get off the buss and buy food or should I pack something to eat in the way?

Thanks!

There is a break in Ponferrada after four hours. There is a toilet in the rear stairwell; very cramped quarters!

Generally speaking, Spain is a safe country. But just in case...If you deposit your backpack in the storage bay, wait until it is closed before boarding the bus.

As always, hope for the best, but remind yourself that the worst is still possible.
