The bus was very comfortable, the driver had good driving skills, however, we arrived late at New York due to local traffic congestion; I did not like that there was no wifi in the bus, as advertised at booking time.

New York Trailways Buffalo New York recent customer reviews

Very bad drag smell. I know it's not your fault but the smell was from your passengers and I ended up vomit in the bus. Long waiting time on the stops. I would prefer like 5-10 minutes brake. Everything else was okay.

not enough legroom. I’m tall so I couldn’t fit at all. Some weird guy snuck on the bus-I’m pretty sure he didn’t even have a ticket

Our bus was canceled and the only sign was in pencil which no one saw until well after the estimated departure time and we had to spend the night in our car so thanks for the extra back pain

All was good except for the toilet, the door kept opening and shutting all the time and made a lot of noise.

The driver got us to our destination safe n in a timely manor. He was also respectful and communicated to us about our change of route. The other guest respected each others space and limiting the use of cellphones without earpieces. The pick up location was easy to find. I didn't like that charging outlets wasn't working and some of the foot rest didn't work. Overall service was good. Thanks
