Pros: Getting to my destination earlier than expected. Cons: Sure, here's a revised version of your review that's clear, respectful, and organized, while still expressing your experience honestly: --- My experience on this bus ride was extremely disappointing. First, the cleanliness was unacceptable—the seats my sister and I sat in were filthy, with juice spilled all over them. We had no choice but to sit there, as the only other option was next to a grown man, which we were uncomfortable with. The bus driver was also quite rude. Despite the fact that we arrived early, he rushed us to board, even though we were just trying to get settled for what was going to be a 7–8 hour ride. The worst part of the trip, however, was dealing with an extremely inappropriate passenger. A man sitting behind us was doing disturbing things to himself. Even after we asked him to stop, he began hitting our seats, kicking me, and later moved directly behind me (to a broken seat) and continued his behavior. It was around 3 a.m., and he and his friend were being loud, walking up and down the aisle, and making my sister and me very uncomfortable by staring at us. Overall, I would give this ride a 0.5 out of 10. The only reason it gets any points at all is because we arrived at our destination early. Otherwise, this was a truly upsetting and unsafe experience. Tips: If you’re a woman please have someone with you . Watch your surroundings . If you have a newer iPhone get the old charger cord for the bus they do not have c ports or normal outlets at that .

Pros: Arriving safely. Cons: Driving (too many and too hard braking. The charger stations above, were only turned on for 3 mins while picking up the 8th Ave riders. Being on time or early. Tips: If you don’t mind the hard braking and being flown forward on some of them or arriving late; then your good. However this was only with that particular driver. The one I rode on 3 weeks prior, was a great drive. No issues and arrived fairly close to the arrival time.

Pros: I love that there is a china town bus. It's a great value and usually the staff is very helpful. Cons: My main concern was how this was how unhelpful the staff was. The bus from Philly to NY was fine but then when I got to NY I had to ask the person in the bus station office to help me find my stop.. she was rude and it felt like she was bothered by my need for help and didn't want to. She grabbed my phone and opened the maps app to enter the address of where I needed to go. It was the first time I was going to this location and unfamiliar with the area. The stops were not announced and that would have been helpful. I did miss my stop but not by much. Something that could be improved are the at least 5 of the seats looked to have actual dirt on them.. There was definitely unwell folks in the bus, sneezing and coughing, that was pretty unsettling. I think it would be helpful for folks making multiple transfers to add directions and state how long the walk will be from stop to stop. I hope this helps.. Tips: Pack light, travel healthy, have your phone charged and be prepared to find your way to transfer stops.. some staff are not available to help.

Pros: I did arrive to my destination. Cons: No Heat for 7hours, I travel with my husband an a 7yrs old boy and we froze. It was a 7hour ride and it was soo.. cold. The passenger who sat in front of me chair fell back so far it almost slammed into my chest. A little further it would have been in my seat. We argued he was cold too and miserable so he was not being very nice. It was a horrible ride it was the first time I was miserable taking the bus. There was no warning sign for it being no heat on the bus. We were stuck and we couldn't get off because it was the very early in the morning we board the bus at 11:30 PM. We live in the city so, we had to ride it out. After an hour or two you realize it's not going to get warm. I deserve a refund for all 3 tickets that I bought. I had 1 small blanket that I wrapped my grandson in so he would not be very cold. It save him from the cold. Tips: Yes everything I just said. The tickets are not expensive But You may ride with No heat in the winter for 7hours with No warning. You may get into a physical fight with another passenger. Bring good air freshener because the bathroom smells. But the bus driver will apologize for the inconvenience.
