Greyhound Washington Dallas recent customer reviews

I was delayed over 4 hours for a layover that should have been for just an hour. No reasonable explanation was given and the staff didn’t seem to be able to do much about it. I ended up missing my connection to Dallas and had to sleep at the greyhound station overnight to wait over 5 hours for another bus in the morning. This is the worst business I’ve ever come across in America. Greyhound doesn’t deserve to be in operations
