Liked the legroom and that we could kick back and sleep comfortably. Had a very friendly driver, who made the trip so much shorter. The toilet door did not close properly and that was a bit annoying when it kept swinging open and knocked against the railing every time someone used it and did not slam it shut.Apart from that, we had a nice trip

Leg room space isn’t enough. Needs a better air conditioning system, as people stink on the bus

I had one of the most horrible experience with Greyhound, this has never happened before. It was very cold in the bus and the window could not be closed properly which led to more coldness. There was no AC and it stank in there because of the dirty toilet! I’m very disappointed
