Overall I was impressed with kindness the bus driver and staff expressed. They were all genuine and considerate, including the other patrons taking the bus and at the stations; however, it was a bit of an inconvenience that the bus was expected to arrive 2hrs late and because of this, the drop off destination changed. I don’t think I’d use this transportation again, unless I had no other options.

I was very disappointed with the condition the bathroom was in. The WiFi did not work. My bus was scheduled to leave at 2pm but did not do so until after 4:15pm.
