What's the English for...
What do you call a long distance bus whose seats can be lowered in such a way that passangers can sleep comfortably while travelling at night?
Yesterday I saw one such bus on the highway, and on the rear it read "sleeping bus". Is this term correct? It sounds odd to me, kind of taken from a fairy tale or sth., but well, I’m not a native speaker of English, so who knows, maybe it’s right
If there's anyone interested, in Argentina we call it "coche cama".

Thank you all for your replies.
So, I guess "sleeping bus" is an awful invention!
