“Awesome! One of the best gas stations in NV. It's got everything you need, and the number of pumps is crazy- no waiting for someone else to stop filling up here. The restrooms are clean, and the place itself is crazy. It's got a beer cave and the biggest amount of taffy I've ever seen. Cute souvenirs and of course great food too. Spotless when I visited and the staff friendly too. I make sure to stop here when travelling.”

“Convenient stop for gas, nice clean gas station, clean bathrooms, and friendly staff, with a couple of fun little photo ops; quick in and out for drinks and snacks, then back on the road.”

“This is a great little stop on the way in and out of California. They are busy quite often in my experience, so prepare for that. It is a small store, with a mediocre selection of snacks, a decent selection of drinks, and a slightly better than poor selection of food. The employees are always great, and the parking lot is for trucks is better than average.”

“Did a 10 here, lots of parking! Grounds are kept fairly clean and trash is emptied regularly. The areas to walk dogs are limited. Definitely know the ground is extremely hot! I have sock/booties for my dog for extreme heat or cold (Amazon so worth it!) Bathrooms were clean. And it was well lit at 4am. Back from the freeway so quiet. Only a subway, none of the usual Pilot fare for eating. But it was fresh and the staff were polite.”

Read the postLove's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees. Picture this: Three big screens in each restaurant, tracking how fast workers greet customers, take orders, and hand out food.

"These monitors track key performance metrics in real-time, such as greet times, order processing times and the time it takes for food handoff," Love's explains. The system creates a more interactive environment, fostering friendly competition between stores.
