Overall, a positive experience. It would have been nice, to have a more direct (train only) route, rather than taking a bus from L.A. to Bakersfield, then a train to Stockton, and then, one more bus, from Stockton to Sacramento.
According to the reviews, there are some areas where improvements could be made. Specifically, customers mentioned issues with seat allocation on their tickets. Overall, the service was considered okay but there is room for improvement in various aspects.

The bus was untidy and dirty. As for the toilet it was disgustingly stinky from its arrival to collect us. For 8 hours i had to endure the disgusting smell. Im a very disappointed passenger seeing it was my 1st experience. Will not recommend it!!

The bus driver was extremely rude. I was experiencing some hygiene issues and I needed to change my sanitary napkins but I ran out. We stopped at a stop in Turlock right in front of a gas station and he was extremely rude and was refusing to let me off the bus to buy sanitary napkins. I understand we have a strict schedule to stick to but in certain cases where it comes down to situations we cannot control especially health I find it very disturbing that he made me feel like it was an inconvenience to be a woman. It was even more inconvenient because I bleed more when I travel so I was uncomfortable for the last half of my ride home back to Sacramento!
