Greyhound Richmond Atlanta recent customer reviews
I boarded a bus in Richmond, VA to travel to Atlanta, GA. I had to change buses in Knoxville, TN.The staff in Knoxville,(Friday night - Sat Morning, Dec.7 at 5:00 AM) particularly one female was curt and abrupt, bordering on rude, so much so that another passenger remarked on her behavior. I have never taken a bus before, I typically fly or drive but with the sudden death in my family, I was faced with a short turn around as I was in Atlanta the week before. I new car was not ready for delivery. Also, Flying was cost prohibitive on short notice. I had a pop up on my computer that offered bus services as an option. things were going fine before I got to Knoxville. Just let me say, I will never ride a bus again.
