Greyhound Boston Saratoga Springs recent customer reviews

Bus to Albany was WAY too small, and I am a very small person. No room to move in any direction. Both greyhound buses during my trip had outlets that did not work, which is entirely too common. Don't advertise outlets and Wifi when neither work.
