Customers have noted that the bus service successfully got them to their destinations, and they would use it again. However, there were some concerns about a lack of toilet paper or paper towels on one trip and an intense vibration possibly due to a tire issue on another journey.

The trip was a smooth ride the seat are comfortable the driver are very nice. The only downside was the bus I was on the bathroom door hinge would not stay closed completely so anytime we hit a bump it would swing open and slam against back wall loudly.

Two hours delay for departure and failed to leave the air conditioning on at each stop.

We arrived almost 2 hours late and there must’ve been a tire with a bulge because it was vibrating quite intensely. But they got me to my destination and I will use them again.

I am very displeased that the bus arrived late due to either negligence in checking whether it's in good contion or not. I missed my flight from Denver because of the delay when the bus had to stop because of an issue that could. Have been spotted before putting it on the road. The plugs in the his weren't working either. But honestly, the driver was a very kind man.

I didn't get to board the bus! The QR code did not validate my trip and the operator couldn't find the reservation # or my email address. They didn't let me travel!
