Would give it zero stars…bathrooms are tiny and tolerable was left with someone’s shaved hair on it. Also went to the Wendy’s connected and there was black mold in the fountains even in the store part. It even was coming out in my drink. Customer service was terrible. Wish I got pictures but this is why I go to loves. :/

Thanks Joe, so kind and helpful he did make a difference in the experience
Im sorry that the manager was so disrespectful
First of all if an employee made a mistake, you're not supposed to call it out in front of the customers even less in such a disrespectful way.
If it was me i would have quick on the spot
But joe was always smiling nice and kind helping not just me but all the customers around.
BRAVO for him.
A perfect example of an employee that makes you want to come back.

Manager Peggy and the other people cleaning the showers are rude, unprofessional, and discriminatory. I paid for a shower here and while I’m still in the shower I’m being rushed with aggressive knocks from cleaning staff and the manager saying I have to leave NOW or the cops will be called on me for trespassing bc they put some imaginary time limit for how long I can be in the shower. This is SUPER unprofessional. I’ve never once had an encounter like this in any pilot.
