Left later than scheduled from Orlando to Gainesville on 7/24 at 12:10. Someone else was assigned to my seat. Luckily bus had other seats so took 2C instead of 3C. On bus from Gainesville to Orlando on 7/10, seat very comfortable but the bathroom was not clean or well stocked.

People were yelling the entire time, and the greyhound station in Gainesville isn’t even open. There was no one working inside or even a restroom. The workers will insanely rude the entire time. Im not the type to complain I’ve never even written a complaint before but this was genuinely the worst travel experience i have ever had. A lady full on yelled at us, then refused a man on the bus but made a huge scene. was bad bro.
