The bus arrived 20 minutes early and left without me. I got to the bus stop 15 min early and the bus already left. I was stranded at 1 am and spent the night in the bus terminal, I had to pay Uber $280 to get me to Springfield for my meeting.

Driver spoke to passengers like they were children. Coach was dirty and smelled.

Most of my dissatisfaction is not Greyhounds fault. There was a mechanical issue with the bus that caused a delay and then a wreck in the road which put us behind schedule. What I was frustrated with is the fact that customer service couldn’t tell me a thing about it until the bus was already an hour and a half late!
