This is one of the worst pilots I've been to. Food was old. Showers were so disgusting I didn't even shower. Mens were going in ladies bathrooms it was right at the entrance. Mens bathrooms right by showers

DO NOT STOP HERE. Prepay gas doesn’t work at any pumps. Known issue by the station, they don’t seem to care. Workers are rude and seem like they don’t want to be there. Wait lines are ridiculous.
