Adirondack Trailways New Paltz Albany recent customer reviews

Absolutely dissatisfied. I would not recommend this bus route to anyone. The staff was rude the bus was extreamly late but if Adirondack Trailways is willing to compensate then I would be willing to reconsider because I take the bus ALLL the time. The staff was not helpful at all, extremely rude and it didn't help that I was already nervous about missing a bus that I was taking to get to an extremely important interview.
