A review of Greyhound

I recently took Greyhound Bus Lines overnight express service from New York to Boston. My overall impression was unsurprisingly not that positive. Imagine an airplane trip that starts out at an airport located in the basement of a homeless shelter, then when you get onto the plane you notice the seats are 30% narrower than conventional airplane seats, there is half as much legroom, it smells like it has been freshly hosed down with that blue water from airplane toilets. Top it all off with the fact that it is 5 times slower and that doesn't add up to a very nice experience. On the plus side, despite being awash in human detritus, the bus was tolerably clean, arrived early, and the bus station in Boston seemed fairly modern. The verdict, the bus is the 100% worst way to travel. At $30 it is a rip-off, at $15 it I jut barely worth the money. If you have to go to Boston, the bus should be the last resort, even below not going. plus Boston sucks.
