Not so great due to delay of 180mins and having to leave Port Authority to get on Flix Bus in Chinatown

Allowed a drunk women on the bus who throughout the 9hr bus ride woke everyone up repeatedly, was racist, and did not respect anyone. The bus driver had to pull over because of her. She was known to be drunk by the family member who dropped her off and the bus driver was aware. Unacceptable. I’ll never be riding Greyhound again.

The ride back was long. Extra stops was added. The driver kept slamming on brakes. The people was very loud

The bus arrived one hour later, there were no sits assigned. The driver didn’t spoke English very well so communication was difficult. I’m very disappointed pf the servicie received.

The bus ride was fine however the bathroom in the back of the bus did not have hand sanitizer. I also think there needs to be a better organization when it comes to seating because some people came on the bus saying that they paid for a specific seat and people are already sitting in it. When I originally purchased my ticket online and it comes with a QR code I was not aware until the day of the bus ride that I had to pay an extra dollar to print out the ticket and I think that's ridiculous

The AC did not work so we road just about 8 hours in 90° to 100° weather uncomfortably with NO internet (WiFi)service and the bus driver's attitude was HORRIBLE... Also the power outlets did NOT work... I'd DEFINITELY think twice before riding with them again

What I enjoyed about my trip was that the bus wasn't crowded. Their was garbage bags for deposal. The bus driver ensure everyone was on the bus after rest stop. The journey for me was too long. There was a overhead compartment that keeps making noise which was very much annoying. Apart from that the drivers were really nice and helpful.
