- IJIkram JumayevApr 3, 20261.0Wanted to take warm shower but the ac blows freaking cold air, why? Why? Why? When you're done taking shower you're literally freezing
- BEBaxter ExumMar 22, 20261.0Weird customer interface at the pump. It rejected my card twice before I gave up and left.
- B2blended 2getherMar 11, 20265.0Great service and atmosphere. Shower is clean. Only complaint is 25 minutes ago I ordered Shower on app. Went to McDonald's inside polit ate my food then right before my shower was called i lost my place in line because I opted to receive text message. DO NOT DO THAT. JUST KEEP APP OPEN. I was lucky and grateful management honored my shower number. But it could of been a mess considering 10 people were waiting. She politely told the new 111 guests there was a mistake and he would get next shower open.
- JNJayson NigroMar 4, 20261.0Lady that works here was very rude amd started saying how she doesn't like our country or the president after I mentioned the zyn were 4 dollars more here compared to across the state lines no need to bring political views into the work place
