Diesel price $4.10 - that's a rip-off. We took a shower and then went next door to fuel up for $3.25.
By the way, the shower was covered in someone else's hair - especially noticeable on the toilet. Disgusting.

I’d like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the staff at the Pilot Truck Stop for making me feel like family during the 10 days I was stuck there. The place was always kept spotless, and the service was nothing short of amazing. A special thanks to this incredible group of people: Bev, Alex, Del, Cas, Dom, Aylisa, Douglas, Jaden, Alexandria, Jamie, Iva, Brooke, Jessica, Cherry, Tami, Diana, Tiffany, Christian, Kenny, Ira, Danny Avery — and of course, my good friend Jason! This Canadian truly appreciated your kindness and hospitality. Hope I didn't miss anyone! - See you all in the new year!
