FlixBus Tucson Los Angeles recent customer reviews

Super uncomfortable: The seats & leg room are not suitable for anyone, especially when it’s an overnight trip & people are trying to sleep. I was told to get there 15 minutes early, so I rushed there & the bus was 15 min late to arrive. The bathroom was a bit scary to be in for long. The best part of the trip was the Driver who had a funny humorous, uplifting attitude.

Bus malfunctioned in the Riverside Station. We needed to wait for 2 hours for another bus to come and pick us up. We didnt know at ehat time the bus was going to come or if the bus that was broken would be able to work again. Misunderstandings, miscommunications and not organized at all. Never booking Greyhound again.
