The bus was very old, it didn't have an outlets for charger nor the driver had a GPS which lead him to use his phone for GPS

I arrived to the bus station at 8:10am, 20 minutes before the bus was supposed to leave just to be safe. I continued waiting with many other people then it was 9am and we had no updates and we’re not told the bus was late. Finally a little after 9 we got an update saying there was a delay and we would be leaving between 9:30 and 9:45am. I continued to wait till that time came around and the bus still wasn’t there. I did not receive anymore updates beyond that point but continued to wait. The bus finally came around 11am

It got me from point A to B, but the wifi didn’t work and there were no charging outlets (both were features that were promised)…so my phone died which made the rest of my travels that day tricky and stressful
