Worst bus ever. They couldn’t get a driver for my morning (4:45am) bus so I had to take the bus at 2pm

first of all, the station was filled with homeless people all over the place, lying around in the station and the floors were not clean.

My bus was late and when I got to Atlanta the fare to Macon went up from$20 to$42. Needless to say I refused to pay double for the ticket my daughter drove from Macon to pick me up.
