Great big parking lot. Two of us told the guy cleaning the parking lot about a nest of bees. I was here for the entire weekend and was here a week later and nothing has been done about them. You will deserve the law suite i know will be coming when someone gets attacked by them.

Buyer beware! Pilot return policy on electronic devices is 7 days! Their website says 30 days, but you won’t get a full refund. I walked in to return a $30 car charger, that would not work in either of my vehicles and the store manager refused to refund me.
So, I called Guest Services and got the same answer. Sorry, nothing they can do about it, put the blame back on the store manager. No exceptions. So much for being a “Preferred Customer”. Ha!

Got gas here and my mpg tanked. I had filled to where I had 180 miles left and I could barely make it to Primm. Something wrong with the gas quality here. Filled up at chevron and now my gas mpg is back to normal.
