Very disappointing experience at this Pilot truck stop. I had to wait a long time for a shower even though several of them were open but hadn’t been cleaned. The staff looked like they simply didn’t care about their job at all. In this profession, time is everything for us drivers and at this place, they clearly don’t respect that.
The manager of this location should take responsibility and make sure the staff actually does their job and keeps this place clean. Everywhere I go, I’m required to be exactly on time with my deliveries, but here I end up wasting my own time because people working here don’t take their duties seriously. Completely unacceptable...

Everyone had to go inside to pay. No room to maneuver around the pumps. Around the back was filled with semis waiting to get to an empty pump. Worst experience at a pilot ever!
