Terrible experience. My uncles bus was suppose to come in st 730 am and didn't show up till 10pm. When we phoned grey hound no one know where the bus was or when to expect the bus.... after being on hold for 30 minutes and transferred to two other departments. Terrible service and wouldn't recommend greyhound.
