Pros: The staff was so nice! The driver even lent me a charger. The people on the bus were also pretty pleasant. I took it in the morning and as a woman traveling alone I felt very safe. I do not know what the experience would be like at night but the day was a pretty nice ride. Definitely nicer than Greyhound buses. Cons: The communication between the driver and rider pre-pickup was not the best. Tips: I would tip travelers to keep their belongings close to them just to make sure.

Pros: Chargers available Not crowded. Cons: The bus between Holland and Chicago was delayed at first (almost 50mn) and I couldn’t find any information about it anywhere.. as I had a plane to catch later in Chicago I kind of panicked ! In the end we were only 20mn late so all fine.
