It was great experience, need more restroom stops. The rest on the bus was out of order. The WiFi wasn't working so I wasn't able to connect the the net throughout my journey.

I'm speechless. The bus was supposed to leave at 2:10 am on November 10th but the bus driver never showed up. We waited 6 hrs for someone to finally come. The bus ride was horrible due to the fact that the driver was completely rude and almost left 3 people behind on purpose and he drove with the ac off meanwhile I am 5 months pregnant.

Was a coach ride. But the driver/conductor although not directly towards me. Was rude in the way he addressed his customers. Clearly only cared about getting off the bus. Very surprising for a first time. Don't think I'd like to use the greyhound service again
