Horrible. The worst customer service EVER! They made me wait in a line for an announcement which was never made and the bus left. Passengers weren't notified. Total disorganization at the terminal. Clerks didn't care about the upset passengers. Never taking a Greyhound bus ever again. First and last time.

Door broken and got locked in the bus with no air conditioning for almost an hour, then bus broke down the highway 3 times,left us there and told us they would send another one in 6 hours

I never made it on the bus because they never had an update on when the bus to Tuscaloosa was going to get there. I had to take a $300 uber because I am a student and had to get back to campus. I am never taking greyhound again.
