Its a nice place to stop and get a bite to eat, shop for snacks on the long road trips, they remodeled so not as much stuff as they used to. Leaving the gas station can be tricky for younger drivers or someone who cant see well. They also have a restaurant inside that has a nice line up of trucker style dishes. All in all a basic old school truck stop hidden back in a the shadows of the highway.

*I am a car driver and needed a place to shower, eat and rest over night, this place delivered!*4th of July weekend, no hotels remotely close had any availability and i was getting desperate. Friendly and helpful staff. As I said, I’m not a trucker but I used the showers and yes, they are not what you would see in a4+star hotel, they are old and cracking and filled but no mold or anything present I saw. Also they are way big enough to not come in contact with on accident. They provided fresh towels and have a nice smelling and feeling shampoo/body wash.For people who need to have a place to stay over night they were very accommodating, unlike the last place that acted like they never imagined a person driving a car needing a place to rest for a few hours.Lots of food options and places to eat but I arrived too late for the restaurant, however their shop food was just as filling.

Stopped in here to get an alignment. Made it a half mile and came back due to a hard pull the the right. For the next 5 hours they kept trying to align the front end but couldn’t get it right. The alignment Machine kept giving inconsistent readings making it near impossible to align. I was patient with them the whole time but at the end I just asked if they would help me do a tape measure alignment to get it driveable since I needed to get moving, then I could stop by another location and get it set proper. They agreed and I went on my way. The next day I tried the Janesville location, but their machine was out of order. At that point I had to cancel a load and go to a different vendor and pay them $300 to fix the alignment. After this I went back and asked for a refund. The tech who did the alignment was there and called his boss, explained the scenario, and said they would get me taken care of but needed to come back during normal hours for the manager to handle the refund. Once again I went on my way. Came back a few day’s later, the manager BAHRAM GOSHI had me waiting for 15 minutes while he was on the phone before even coming to talk to me. Then he proceeds to question every little thing as if I was making this story up.... once again the tech had already sided with me....tells me he will look into it and call me. A week goes by, no call. I call him and he claims they will take care of me and stop on when I am able. I stop in the next day and he offers me a $60 refund of the $300 I spent there.SO AT THE END OF IT ALL THEY OFFERED ME $60 AS A REFUND FOR THE $300 I GAVE THEM, NOT TO MENTION THE OTHER $300 I HAD TO PAY A DIFFERENT SHOP TO FIX THIER MISTAKE.

All the trash cans are full, zero hot food in the fuel island, no paper towels in the holder. Maybe we should can all the lady dinosaurs with attitude and hire some ppl that dont think this job is beneath them.

Here w/ my husband 04/24/2020. All hot dogs at Dairy Queen were frozen, none were cooked, 7:45 pm, dinner time, no food! Sit down restaurant closed. Meat for subway sandwiches looked nasty. I guess people get to starve in this pandemic. Stop paying employees if they arent going to work! No excuse for this. Not coming here again, even after pandemic.

Worst buffet Ive had. Waited for lunch buffet to come out, so it would be fresh. Was the first one up there. Looked like was in a warmer for hours, all dry and gross looking. And they want fourteen dollars for it. Buffet cook should be let go, if he cares that little for his work. He needs to do something different. Petro used to be a nice place, not so much anymore.

We ordered breakfast at 11:17.I know the exact time because we asked what time the breakfast buffet ended and the waitress said 11:00.So we ordered breakfast off the menu.At 12:20 we still had no food so we got up and left. We should have known better because when we sat down there was notes on the napkin and the paper sleeve they put your silverware in. From a very upset customer. So this Petro has been taken off the list as a stop. We are in Wisconsin quite often as my husband is an over the road truck driver.Such a shame that this place has gone down hill so bad. It used to be a nice place. Now even the store is awful. They have taken so much stuff out.
