I'm originally from Monterrey and although I never traveled by bus, the answer to your question is affected by:
- do you speak spanish well enough to survive in a bus station? Even those here in the TX are NOT pretty nor well taken care of - do you have any time restrictions? the first question goes for obvious reasons. In laredo you'll find someone that speaks english anywhere... in Nvo. Laredo, not necessarily. Question 2 relates to the time it takes for buses to cross the border. It can take anywhere from minutes to hours (just like on the way back) so if you can skip that part then it's probably better. Finally, maybe that's not an option anymore but if you can drive or have someone drive you it'll be worth it because you'll get to the final destination you are aiming for. Monterrey is big... I mean BIG so getting to the bus station is one thing, moving around in the city is a whole different endeavor. Good luck
