Pros: Trip was comfortable and restful, would definitely use service again and recommend to friends. Cons: Navigating the web site was the most challenging as I could see only the selected route one way not a timetable for return flexibility ??? Tips: Book early as possible as fares increase closer to travel date.

The seats are a bit close together. They are also a bit too firm.

Pros: The Bus going into NYC was nice, clean and had outlets easily accessible for use. The Bus heading home from NYC was not as clean and the outlets were either too hard to reach or not working. We had an extremely rude and loud passenger behind us who was on his phone the ENTIRE time speaking non-english and ruined the ride home. We moved 2 times after passengers departed off the bus to get away from him. Unfortunate. Cons: Better outlets on the buses for phone charging. Tips: wear headphones!!!!!!
