The driver came off hasty and rude. It was my first time riding and I was afraid to ask the driver questions.

The bus was a few minutes late to arriving. On are first stop we got some time walk around witch was nice. The buss did have a very loud noice that sounded to be mechanical, witch was a little nerve-racking. Over all the trip went smooth and arrived a few min ahead of time. I will be using this service again.
