- RZRay Zimmerman3 days ago5.0I stopped to get something to eat, the place is clean, well lit. The gentleman at the subway counter was very friendly, courteous and had a smile on his face. He had great customer service
- SOSam OctoDec 22, 20255.0King Walker and Daisy, Thank you both so much. My driver had not responded for 18 hours, and we were very worried about his health condition. I reached out to the Pilot Travel Center where the driver was parked, provided them with all the details, and they were willing to help. Even though the driver was parked some distance from their facility, they checked on him, woke him up, and informed me that everything was fine. We truly appreciate the support and assistance. May God bless you both. Thank you again.
- DWDavid W.Dec 14, 20252.0The good: staff is friendly, restrooms and bathrooms are clean. The bad: small store, food at the Taco Bell and Subway are below par. Barely any food in the store. Roller grill is often empty and not properly stocked. Internet reception is decent around this place but their wifi often has issues.
