Staff was friendly. Only complaint I have is we had an ETA, I asked if there would be any stops and was told no. Then we stopped 30 minutes into the trip at a convenience store and that caused us to be late by about 30 min. My teenage son had to wait 30 extra minutes because we stopped. Just need to be more specific about stops, etc. ETA's can be critical and this one was. We missed an appointment we had due to this.

They said to show up an hour before departure there was no bus there and the building was closed, so I left and showed up 20 minutes before departure and the bus had apparently already left.
