Greyhound Washington Stamford recent customer reviews
Bus was nice, staff was great. The only issues of timeliness were not in control of the driver and resulted from traffic conditions.
5 out of 5 stars
Ezra H.
my ticket was from wdc to stamford, so there are 2 buses and 2 routes. The first bus arrived with a huge delay in WDC which made me miss the second bus in NYC. To make matters worse there were no more buses on the date to Stamford. I had expenses to stay in NYC for a longer time and to pay gas for my old man's car to pick me up and get me to work. I arrived at work very late and then had to go back to Stamford to pick up my car that was in a parking lot. Also the bus was very old and uncomfortable. Much damage on that day. My family and I were disappointed. I would at least like to be compensated for what I spent today, as it was not our fault. No further.
