They "close for 20 minutes" around 7:00 PM (prime time!) for no discernible reason. They don't turn out the lights so you don't know. One of the employees slowly makes his way around to each car that is waiting and tells them (would've been quicker to just pump the gas?).
This station used to be a different company and their automatic car wash was usually open and hassle-free. Now, it's open but they taped up the part where you put in money and put a sign up that you have to go inside the (in)convenience store to pay. I thought it was broken, so ok, but it's been that way for a long time now. The employee was doing his lottery thing so I had to wait a while for him to finish, then he wanted to come out with me just so he could hit the button so I had to wait for him. A quick wash that used to take me 3 minutes now takes 20. Needless to say I don't bother anymore and won't until it is automated again. read more
