Peter Pan / Greyhound Hartford Providence recent customer reviews

I was suppose to arrive in Providence at 7:05 p.m. However, I arrived at 9:20 p.m. That is 2 hours and 15 minutes of more travel time then I payed for, which is completely unacceptable. I travel a lot, and I have never see anything like this before.
