Horrible. I was at the bus stop at 10:15, when the bus was scheduled to depart, and the bus never arrived or departed way earlier. No notification of this on the app. Horrible.

The bus was comfortable and the driver was friendly. The bus stop signage in the Pearl District of San Antonio was not very clear and most passengers arriving in the area were confused where to go at first. There was also an alert sent out stating the bus was going to be delayed 1 hour when it actually left on time, so thankfully we did not wander too far or we would have missed it.

everything was generally good. the only thing was that the bus itself felt like it need a bit of a face lift. it was a bit run down and not as comfortable. but regardless, it was perfectly fine to travel.

Decided to go with Uber instead at the last minute because a 2 hour delay would have ruined my time in Austin.
