Ankara – Malatya, overnight bus, June 24

VIP Malatyalilar, seats 15 and 16

Regular buses leave for Malatya from Ankara's otogar, with prices ranging between 17.50 and 20 YTL per person. The trip takes 10 hours, so we chose the 21:30 service, which arrived in Malatya at 7:15am. The bus was clean, comfy, and with a little help from earplugs and eye masks, we managed to get a surprisingly decent amount of sleep.
Bathroom: No loo on bus; regular loo stops though.
View: Variable (great scenery on the way in to Malatya in the morning).
Cost: 40 YTL
Recommended? Yes; as overnight bus trips go, this wasn't too bad.
