I was here and it was very short staffed but both of the Jessica’s that was there was very helpful and did a awesome job with teamwork and they got the job done. One was in Subway back for checking people out and other Jessica was checking people out and back cleaning out the showers With only two people great job ladies.

There are not enough parking spaces for trucks in this area! Drivers park their trucks against the no-parking sign, and other drivers can't access the diesel fuel stations! The shower equipment also needs repairs!

Twice in a row I have reserved a spot when I knew I would be driving late and both times there was no space for me when I arrived.
They DO NOT enforce reserved parking past 10pm. This is the only place in my experience that doesn't.

This is the worst Pilot ever. I want to know what the management is doing. I paid for parking, but there was no spot available. When I went inside to ask the staff, they told me that after 10 PM, there’s nothing they can do. Everyone, be careful — this place is terrible
