The pickup location was not clear at all. I missed my trip, which I paid $70 for, because I spent 30 minutes circling around the map point.

I didn't enjoy my trip, because someone was smoking cigarettes, while the bus hit the road after half an hour, l smell the cigarettes, l told the driver, that "someone is smoking at the back", he said l'll deal with, but he didn't do anything and he didn't ask the guy to stop smoking tills we arrived, l was very disappointed.

It was great but the bus faced delay due to the traffic so we arrived at 4:10 instead of 3:30

Very bad, the bus left behind 3 passengers including me. The bus dropped off the passengers on the same side as those who were about to take their trip, was very odd.

February 19, 2025

It was pretty confusing where the departure point was. Had to help an old lady cross a busy boulevard since she thought it was on the other side. The bus was 20 minutes late, but being there 20 minutes earlier, I waited almost an hour in the cold because there was nowhere to wait inside. Couldn’t feel my toes anymore, I was dressed to be on the bus not waiting outside for so long. Was looking forward to get warm on the bus, but it was actually quite cold on the bus also. Definitely could’ve been a bit warmer.
