Greyhound San Francisco Arcata recent customer reviews
We were a bit early. Out bus driver was safe and curtious. The bus ride was smooth.
The staff were great and timeliness was on point, but the bus was dirty and so was the Bus hub in San Francisco, as a single female traveler it was uncomfortable to sit in there alone. Once on the bus and over the nastiness though it was a smooth ride!
The trip that I had with Greyhound was so untimely, in fact arriving at the station 10 HOURS after the announced boarding time, I will never travel with Greyhound again. I'm a frequent traveler and I expect things to be timely and this messed up my schedule so much.
