Driver was polite and informative, seats were comfortable, large legroom with leg rest, there were USB chargers, clean toilet, bus was on time, left from the center of the city and took me right in the center of the city so very convenient.

The bus was full but that wasn’t the problem, it had a particular smell and just one hour before we arrive to Philadelphia, a guy smoked weed in the restroom and he was close enough to me to smell it (also he was laughing and talking loudly, he was definitely high) so I moved to the front and I told the driver about that because there were kids and I was about to vomit because of the smell, but he was yelling at me saying I couldn’t sit in front (and obviously I didn’t want to move) so he was very disrespectful and kept the bus stopped until I agreed to move one more sit behind (but he didn’t do anything about the man, he didn’t care)
