Greyhound St. Louis Memphis recent customer reviews
Riding this bus was like riding a bus from hell. It was dirty, bald tires, windows taped to keep them from falling out,the bus shook like it was falling apart all the way to Memphis! I will be writing to the CEO to let them know how your franchise is operating. This is the second incident that your company has shown no respect or moral obligation to keeping your customer satisfied.
