Dos horas para una ducha, solo una ves por hora limpian las regaderas aunque esté vacío el lugar, si no alcanzaste antes ya te dejan hasta la siguiente hora.

I gave this a one star because after purchasing two sodas I was told they did not have any plastic bags for me to put them in. I was instructed that they ran out of plastic bags two days ago and the only way I was going to get a plastic bag for my sodas is if I bought more sodas to where I couldn't carry them LOL. So I'm leaving this review because it felt like I was being asked or forced to buy more stuff just to get a bag. As a business owner I always stock consumables like bags for customers. This is probably something that fell on management not doing their job. It's the little things that count in business. I was having a great day until I ran across some weird BS. Flying j please be professional and get bags for customers who buy products. Don't save the bags just for the people that spend more money totally ridiculous.

Don't stop at this truck stop if you want to shower. I've been waiting for 2 hours to shower and there are still 8 people in front of me. There's no one cleaning the showers, and this isn't the first time this has happened to me. The last time, after 3 hours of waiting, they told us there was no one available to clean, and that we had to wait until 6 a.m. for the next shift to come in. I wasted my time and my shower credit.
