It was so bad. I gave up and found different means to get to my destination. I will never use Greyhound bus again in my life.

The seats are uncomfortable and with the stress of life and travel there should beheavy leniency on smokers. Especially those who have a medical condition.

Absolutely terrible. My bus was straight-up cancelled and the next bus was 15 hours later. I missed a midterm test because of the company’s incompetence. Trust me, I will not be riding Greyhound ever again.
