Amtrak and Concord bus service is the best way better than Greyhound
Greyhound Lines offers the most comprehensive intercity bus services in the United States. They operate a modern, environmentally friendly fleet that serves more than 2400 destinations and carries nearly 16 million passengers annually. When traveling with them, you can expect free WiFi, onboard entertainment, bathrooms, power outlets and decent legroom. One of the great perks of Greyhound is that they connect big cities and smaller towns in the US, where you usually can't get to by train or plane. If you're looking for safe and affordable transportation, Greyhound is a great choice.
Greyhound Lines, Inc. Bangor New York City recent customer reviews
The bus came on time at Bangor (actually left before the scheduled time), smoothly driven into Boston in the late afternoon without an issue. But I noticed that the driver let people get seated wherever they want (which was good while it was half-filled) and didn't support passengers whose assigned seats were taken even when it got almost full at Portland. If that's the way, Greyhound shouldn't assign any seats to begin with.
4 out of 5 stars

The first bus was great, exactly what it said it would be. The bus from Boston to NYC smelled of old cigarettes, no ports, and the air conditioner was not working properly. The bus was so cold the driver was asked to turn off the AC, which made the air stuffy. For whatever reason the driver went over the GWB and then thru the Lincoln Tunnel to get there.
