Coach USA Milwaukee Chicago recent customer reviews
The train station was clean and a pleasant place to pick up the bus. The bus was clean. The ride was smooth. The driver communicated what we needed to know as we arrived to the airport. An affordable way to get to ohare. I didnt know how many stops we had before we hit the highway. It did add to travel time more than a car ride but at 25% of the cost it was a great option.
No signage to find the bus stop. Almost missed bus because of that. Otherwise excellent
The bus stop at 4960 13strret is no longer open . No where when booking does it mention this. I arrived here to catch my 210pm bus to find this out. It was 26degrees outside and I took an Uber, so now I’m left outside in the freezing cold. Then they canceled the bus and didn’t send out any type of notification.
According to customer reviews, the staff is awesome and the bus floors could be cleaner. However, there have been reports of a rude bus driver who took passengers past their intended stop without permission.

I like that I made it to my destination safe but my trip was delayed by one hour
I was supposed to get down in one station and the bus driver was very rude and took me all the way to downtown even when I didn’t want to.
Awesome staff, could use some more cleanliness on the bus floors. Overall would take another bus ride again.
