The TA in Binghampton,NY is the worst I've ever went in to. Had a old mudflap as a shower mat in the shower stall.

Flying J at pasco washington, two very small shower rooms, hardly enough room for one person, old worn towels, old A frame building, with 5 customers in the store its crowded,,
-
Don't know how long you been out here, but those showers there at the Pasco J have been remodled in the last year or so. You think they were small when you was there,, they used to be even smaller.
When i was on a training truck, we were dedicated to Conway Pasco.
The first time i showered at that j, i decided, that there was more room in a coffin to take a shower.lol
Was there about 4 months ago, i noticed they had remodled them.
Btw that is a franchise J under the Broadway Name.
Broadway Truckstops were some good ole mom n pop trucks, untiel the j came in. Pasco is the exception. Im surprised with all the trucks that over night there, a Pilot hasn't moved in. -
I cannot stand to sweat after taking a shower. That is why I love the Pilot. They have fans in all of their showers and they are cleaned after each use. I think the Tomahawk truck stop in Fountain Colorado is a crappy place. We had to take a shower there last week and I was surprised to find they had just remodeled the showers. They were pretty nice and they even gave me a nice pink towel to use You can't make me take a TA shower....I REFUSE.....!!!!!

I've been to crappy Pilots, Loves', TA's, Petro's... it all depends.
You don't like TAs? Stop at Mittens TA in Oakley KS. They have some of the best showers in the business. Give you some chocolate too!
Bosselman's Pilots are usually very good too. -
Petro 2 in Salina, KS exit 252 I-70, #### good showers, their platinum shower has a rainmaker in the ceiling and a tv with radio in the mirror...their Non-Platinum showers are great too. Pilot in Lodi/Seville at the I-71/I-76 in Ohio, are horrible, they have a good restaurant, but other than that, showers are so cramped and some have no seats in them either.

I haven't had a BAD experience yet. Have used Love's in 3 locations (south Fort Worth, south Dallas, and one somewhere down on I-45 between Dallas and Houston). Charged $7, never had to wait, was clean, towels were thick enough for me, floors could stand to be mopped but I dealt with it. Was homeless and living in a minivan so that was what I did to save versus a hotel every other day.
There is a Knox truck stop on Irving Blvd on Dallas, for $5 it's worth it. The floors could stand to be cleaned, but everything worked and there was plenty of room, no rush, and they provided soap but not shampoo. I went there most often because I carried my own toiletries and their towels were actually better than Love's.
I have not been to any other stations, so I can't comment on them, nor can I vote on the poll, but my friend who drives for Schneider will agree that TA is a Total Abomination! -

Not long ago, I fueled at a Pilot in GA...can't remember which one, for which I'm thankful.
The shower curtain was horrid. I kept it tucked aside because I sure didn't want to touch THAT thing!
I exited the shower and while headed down the hall, one of the attendants asked me how my shower was.
"You really want to know? Let me show you."
He and another younger man followed me back to the room where I showed them the nastiness. I simply said someone needs to do a better job. Ironically, the rest of the room was truly spotless.
Pilot in Denham Springs, LA....just came to me....worst I've encountered recently. Threadbare towels and a very quick once-over between customers, and it showed.
