Adirondack Trailways Ridgewood Montreal recent customer reviews

The restaurant at the Albany station was closed so I was left without food for a bit too long. I was disappointed about this as I had planned my trip around that being my lunch. Our bus was delayed for a while due to border issues and by the time we got to Montréal I was feeling sick from lack of food. We did stop at the Dunkin's in Plattsburgh, so thanks to our driver for that!

The bus did not pick us up at the stop, it drove by without even slowing down. They are not refunding tickets by default either, we're still waiting on the response to our request. We had to make arrangements with another company to get home.
