- FFfrankiefleetwoodJan 5, 20263.0Showers are straight. Good flow, good temperature. Nozzle is for people 5'8 and shorter though. Took another shower the next night. Water was lukewarm at best. Deducted a star.
- WGWanda GoodfellowDec 17, 20252.0Today I went in to buy my usual and the self serve registers are card only. I guess I'll be buying from across the street at Love's from now on.
- CWCeleste WilliamsDec 6, 20255.0We gassed up and pulled away from the pump when our new truck towing our new 5th wheel would not move, forward or in reverse. We let workers inside now we were disabled and started a roadside assistance claim which was complicated by our towing the 5th wheel. The workers and the manager Ed made some helpful suggestions and were going to allow our 5th wheel to stay at the Pilot when the truck was towed. Ed showed us where to park and offered to set out orange cones. 3 hours later our truck issue was resolved without towing and we notified them that we were able to get back on road. Manager Ed and his staff showed us kindness and assistance when we were truly stressed.
- ALAction LaserNov 1, 20255.0First thing when geting in, a nice woman gave a very good smile for me. Thanks for her. Thanks for evry one working here.
- MMMichael McclainOct 7, 20255.0This is in reference to the subway attached to the pilot here at Skippers VA. I am an over the road truck driver and often have the displeasure of choosing to not eat verses bad service and terrible quality. I decided to come to the pilot for subway instead of the 5 other options around. I am so glad that I did and I got to meet an employee name Ja'quan. Even though he was working alone he has the best attitude ever. The bread was the freshest I've ever eaten, and he was cautious in making our sandwiches picture perfect which were awesome. Please make this kid a manager so he can help train others showing them how things are supposed to be again. Thanks Ja'Quan, we will be back to see you !
