Greyhound Chicago Montreal recent customer reviews

The wifi was sketchy, since it relied on ground towers, so I got kicked off and had to reconnect every 10-15 minutes. The last bus of a 22 hour trip had no outlets or wifi, so that was disappointing. The staff was all very friendly, which I chalk up to being in Canada since they have not been friendly before, and the buses were clean and on time, so that was great!
