The air conditioning was nice and the driver, Mr. Wing Wu, was very friendly. I didn't any indication of free Wi-Fi that was advertised while I was booking though, which was disappointing.

The bus driver didn't scand my ticket and rush me to get on and it was the wrong bus. The bus was for New York city and when I call customer service they said there was no other bus to Albany so I had to buy a ticket from greyhound to Albany. This messed up all my plans for my trip to Albany.
