Greyhound New York Jacksonville recent customer reviews

Honestly it's always something with Greyhound. They have poor customer service, poor communication, and overall it was a horrible experience. The bus was 8 and a half hours late, drivers were extremely rude as well...I'm a very dissatisfied customer
