Greyhound Greenville Richmond recent customer reviews

My first experience with greyhound and it was pretty awful. Filthy ugly station in Charlotte with rude indifferent staff, drivers that didn’t show up (resulting in delays), poor communication regarding re-ticketing, no organization in regard to boarding/announcements, no enforcement of the ‘no using a speakerphone’ rule, filthy buses (spilled liquids on seats, used tissues stuffed in crevasses, garbage on floor), uncomfortable seats. One positive: easily accessed free WiFi in stations and on the buses.
