    No showers, no hot food, unprofessional workers. Looks like Delli or Grocery store with fuel pumps, not truck stop.

    The city of Carol Stream doesn't allow them to have a scale laundry or showers. Also truck parking is limited to two hours per City ordinance and the signs everywhere that the city put up saying that it is ticket and towing and forced. This entire part of Illinois is like that

    I drove an hour out of my way to try to get a shower here. Imagine my surprise when I arrived only to find out that they don’t have showers. A gentleman named Sonny took the time to let me vent. He apologized profusely and then gave me complimentary cinnabon and dude shower wipes. Pilot is lucky have professional leader at this location. He did not have to listen to me gripe and he definitely didn’t have to comp me. Sonny is just another reason why I will always prefer Pilot over Love’s and TA. Thanks again Sonny for going above and beyond the call of duty.
