    Compared to other buses (eg. Megabus), this bus is alright! There's free wifi, a free bottle of water prior to entering, and the ability to charge electronics. Wifi - spotty but it works if you're patient! It took a few minutes to load one page, so I definitely recommend downloading movies prior to entering the bus or using things offline. Definitely don't have enough bandwidth to watch movies or a show! Space - it's quite crammed for my personal preference. It reminded me of a cheaper economy airport flight in terms of space. Water bottle - much loved on a warm day! For a bus from DC to NY, this is a cheap option, but Amtrak is more comfortable! If we buy trips in advance, you can have a round trip to NY for just 80-90$!

    Nice bus !!

    I was in a jam and had to get to NYC from Dc Best Bus and Vamoose filled the bill. I was impressed with the ease of booking and professionalism of the driver and associated staff. Price was more than fair, will be using this service again !

    Departed on a Wednesday morning - plenty of empty seats! Even after picking people up at Union Station

    Exceeded my expectations! The bus was on time, the driver was friendly and helped us load our luggage onto the bus, and it was VERY clean. The bathroom was clean as well - no odor what so ever. The bus was not full so single riders had rows to themselves. People were quiet and respectful, no one was rowdy or even talked during the bus ride to nyc. My only complaint is that we ran into some traffic so the bus driver kept braking abruptly which caused me to feel a bit car sick at times. Other than that, smooth ride for the most part and extremely comfortable the whole way there.

    Seems like a new, modern bus.

    I am on the Best Bus right now -- boarded at DC Union Station. Wow, truly the nicest, newest bus among all the other lines parked at the bus bay, on the outside. On the inside, it is as clean and new as the cabin of a nice commercial plane. Plenty of room to spread out! See the photos I took. Polite, quiet passengers. This is my first time, so I'm so glad I made this choice. Hopefully the ride will be smooth and safe, then I'll update my review!

    I took the bus from Penn Station, NY to Dupont Circle, DC at 6pm on a Saturday. There was someone waiting at the bus stop at least half an hour before departure making sure there was no confusion about being in the right line, for the right destination, and the right company. The bus was new and clean. There was a cooler full of cold water bottles for us as we boarded the bus. The driver had us vote on whether to watch a movie and told us what the movie options were (it was close but bus voted no movie), and we could vote to stop at a rest stop or go directly to our destination (almost the entire bus voted no rest stop). We departed at 6pm sharp and arrived to Dupont Circle 4 hours later, which is the first time I've ever arrived to DC so quickly. The driver wasn't going particularly fast either so I'm sure the main difference is that there is more traffic on weekdays. Also, I accidentally bought two tickets for the same trip when I couldn't find the first purchased ticket in my email because it was in the spam folder. I called as I was in line to get on the bus and the customer service lady was nice, efficient, and gave me a refund without hassle. For $29, this was excellent service.

Thank you Charles (driver), Jacob (owner) and David (dispatch/coordinator). From the initial on-line contact to get a price quote there was a response from Jacob by email within thirty minutes requesting more detail about pick up/drop off locations, time and number of passengers. The communication was excellent (from beginning to end) and the responsiveness was very impressive. Our superb driver Charles arrived about an hour early (which was great as many of the 14 adults using the Sprinter Van transportation had already arrived). The driver was caring, responsive, generous and had the Sprinter Van A/C cranked up and the van spotless inside and out. The driver's kindness and driving skills was remarkable in all of the passenger's opinion. He went out of his way to accommodate us. Our HS children used another transportation service (booked prior to the adults deciding to use transportation as well). There service was horrible. He was thirty minutes late for pick up, the Party Bus had no air conditioning (it was 90 some degrees for the one hour ride), had no working speakers, driver smelled of marijuana, drove erratically and did little to in regards to service. When we heard about this we terminated their service after the 1 hour of the 6 hours booked for the evening. Our driver Charles of Shalom Transportation, upon our request, took immediate action by contacting Jacob who was polite and generous and provided us with an impromptu remedy by providing our children with alternative transportation on the spot and the report from our HS children was that the service and transportation vehicle was excellent. David, Shalom's dispatcher, immediately stepped in to action (thank you) and provided immediate communication by text and our adjusted bill by email. We were pleased with Shalom Transportation LLC's communication, service and price and would use them again. Thank you Shalom Transportation LLC (specifically Charles, Jacob and Dave). -the Glasser Family.

I wrote the review on the bus using my own cellular data. I checked multiple times for a Free Wifi network and nothing appeared for me to select. #2 The pictures on the Yelp page are misleading at best. Out of 31 pictures 9 of them are the "LUX" bus you are referring to and TWO of the pictures are the standard bus that I was on. #3 What other riders rated is not my concern, I rated the experience I had using your transportation in real time. It was not pleasant, the seats are small, it took 6 hours to get to NY (traffic or not), there was no WIFI. Those reasons alone are enough for me not to use this service again. There are other riders who experienced exactly what I have listed in this review. I hope that through my review you can check your fleet and ensure WIFI works on every bus. UPDATE: No free WiFi. The bus picture on Yelp IS NOT the bus you ride on. AND they are not timely! This is my first time on the Washington Deluxe. I had high hopes as my boyfriend recommended this service over other buses. The bus itself is very cramped, and I did not see anyone being offered water. Despite that, I thought everything would be fine as it's a 4 hour ride. The bus was due to leave at 3p and we left maybe 10 mins after 3. But somehow by 7pm we JUST made it into Delaware (we were supposed to be in NY by 7:15). Whatever scenic route this driver took added 2 hours to a 4 hour trip!!! We literally went through every stoplight and neighborhood in MD which caused such a drastic delay. Why we could not take a main route is beyond me because we left long before traffic really hit. So as I'm writing this I have now been on this bus for 5 full hours. We mostly likely have another hour before we arrive at the stop. Just take Megabus or Greyhound. Do not let the pictures online or the "deluxe" in the name persuade you. At this point, I'd even take the Eastern bus!
