Pros: So comfy and couldn’t beat the price. Cons: Maybe should have an attendant at the Gainesville terminal. I was traveling alone and when I arrived there was a couple pretty creepy people there and it made us a little uncomfortable so therefor my husband and grandson wasted an hour with me waiting on the train. I do know now that you don’t have arrive that early so next time I will remember that. Tips: Just come prepared for a nice comfortable trip.
