The bus was clean and the driver was professional. Some of the passengers, however, were not. I was annoyed by the personal use of cell phones while on the road, I had several passengers around me talking loudly and using profanity on their phones for most of the trip which I found to be very annoying

Well, the bus was late,but the traffic was the main reason. Also, I understand the first bus was broke down. Still it was a nice warm ride even though was more than 1 hour late, and in the future we will surely check out the possible schedules again, and give them more chances.
