Greyhound Lafayette Houston recent customer reviews

I hate Greyhound but I had no other option. Their prices are way to high, the bus is never on time, and their staff is always so rude.

Better than I expected. First time on a Greyhound in 10+ years. Had the bus been full we would have been very cramped.
