Greyhound Indianapolis Sarasota recent customer reviews

It was the worst experience in my life. The drivers and the staff were rude at every stop. I was on the bus for 27 hours. Was told to get off every 5 and treated like prisoner. The seats did not recline at all and barly enough roon for one 130 pound person. I sat with the seatbelt digging into my hip because the seats were to small for 2 people. My whole body hurts because i never got comfortable. Each station was dirty and void of anything decient to eat. And the bathrooms were dirty with no paper towel or way to dry ones hands. I will never ride greyhound again nor will i recommend it to anyone
