    I've taken one of the Chinatown buses to Philly and figured the experience would be similar. The…read morebus to Albany does have WIFI. Not the best but it does help to past the time and lets you check your emails. Some of the seats are broken. People always snack on the bus. So crumbs galore! Customer service is meh. Never had a problem with the Philadelphia bus but this one is definitely a "don't slow us down" kinda place. But for $20 one way, cheapest option I had for the trip. Took me to walking distance of Albany Med Center which is where I needed to go. Would I take it again...probably. $40 flat and 20 min walking from the hospital. No need for uber.

    "The Chinatown Bus is the bus only masochists take." - one of my friends…read more Is this bus as cheap as megabus or greyhound? Nope; well, yes on holidays. (Always a fixed $20, one way.) Does this bus have wifi service? Haa. You're funny. Does this bus have friendly service? If you speak Chinese, maybe. Are the seats cramped? I'm 5'3 and petite so nah. My tall friends say otherwise though. Is there a bathroom? Yep, but youre better off destroying your bladder. Are you guaranteed a seat? Only if you're good at wrestling your way through crowds or squeezing through them like me. (On a real note, its not bad. It just depends when you go. Eg. On holiday times, a prepurchased bus ticket dont guarantee you a seat.) So why am I giving this place 4 stars? Why take this bus? It's convinent and flexible. The bus comes every 1.5 hours starting at 8:00am till 10:30 + some extra times (128 Central Ave to NYC) 11 buses in one day! Megabus and greyhound have maybe 4-5 buses each in one day. You can purchase tickets on gotobus.com with a credit card but they don't require you to buy a bus ticket ahead of time. You can just show up and get one (CASH ONLY.) Decided to make a spontaneous trip to the city in the next hour or woke up late and missed the bus you need? The Chinatown bus has got you covered!

    I'd like to find someone to date on some sort of dating app, but I've realized that I CDTA anymore…read more (Can't Date Tinder A**holes). It's been a long long time since I first rode the Albany bus system. I was barely 16 years old and over here in the US on my own, without my parents' knowledge, traveling around the East Coast. I had just hopped off a Greyhound from Montreal, and I was touring the NY State Capital on foot and by bus. Those were good times. I put myself through a lot of strain and physical exertion to see so much of the country, but it was worth it. I remember it very fondly. My experiences on CDTA then, and since, were mostly positive. Some of the drivers are unfriendly. Some of the routes stop running way too early. And some of the buses are a little old and in need of a facelift. But on the whole it's good, and not too expensive (lasy time I rode it anyway, and before), so a solid 4 from me. I'd rather ride a train, but I C.D.T.A. = Can't Do Trains Anyway.

    10 years ago I got rid of my car…read more Not because I had to, but because the expense and time involved in car ownership was something I found obnoxious. Way more obnoxious than walking and riding buses. Since I still haven't replaced my car, I guess that was true. People expect a lot from Albany's public transportation, especially those who don't use it regularly. While I take buses multiple times a week, the loudest complaints I hear are from those who take the bus maybe once a year, if that. For an area the size of Albany, CDTA is more than enough. For an area the size of the entire Capital District, it is only adequate That said, CDTA has tried very hard over the past decade to make good improvements. Many of these have been excellent, like expanded routes, shuttles, bike racks, hybrid buses... A few have sucked, like getting rid of transfers and increasing the cost of rides, but those were necessary financial decisions. The only real complaint I have is when they recently decreased service to several areas and merged other routes, effectively making some areas of Albany all but inaccessible to me on weekends. Overall, I think that CDTA does a mostly good job. They run mostly on time and the majority of their drivers are inoffensive, if not friendly and/or polite. They do exactly what they promise - transport large numbers of people over distances too far to walk. That said, how much can you complain or extol when it comes to the only available option in the area?
