The bus had a malfunctioning septic tank, so the whole ride was a smell of urine until we changed bus half way through

ONEXBUS Kingston Kitchener recent customer reviews

My experience was highly unsatisfactory due to a 40-minute delay on the Kingston to Toronto leg, which caused me to miss my scheduled connecting bus to Kitchener. This forced me to wait over two hours for the next bus, arrive after midnight, and incur an unplanned Uber expense when local transit had stopped running, ultimately getting me home at 1:30 AM and causing significant emotional, physical, and financial strain, which completely defeated the purpose of choosing an affordable bus service.
