There was a strong smell coming from the toilet. No electric power supply, no WiFi. And very rude driver (only the first)

Los asientos son muy incómodos, casi no se reclinan. Decía que el viaje era directo e hizo muchas paradas y en cada vez prendían las luces lo que hacía imposible poder descansar (elegimos viajar de noche porque era el único que iba directo). No fue una buena experiencia.

Greyhound San Francisco San Diego recent customer reviews
Worse service I ever seen. I spend five and an half hours in Los Angeles. No one wants to help me even after I called the customer service. She said her supervisor will contact me and send me my ticket. Nothing happened and no one contacted me. I will never take Greyhound buses again.😠😠

The bus bathroom on my transfer bus was unusable. My first bus driver from San Francisco was amazing, he was patient with those who were unintentionally late and those who got off at the last minute to food and held up the bus.

Everything was fine. The woman at the information/ticket office could be a bit more kind. But except of this we are satisfied!
