Marathon Gas

"Bathrooms were around the side of the building. Prices were higher for gasoline than anyone else's nearby."

"If you are going to only allow paying customers to use the bathrooms, you should make them look like they have been cleaned at least one time since 2004. None of the gas pumps worked without going inside, and one didn't work at all. There is a dog chained up by the dumpsters which seems cruel and out of place. Upon trying to pay the cashier, I had to wait before even being acknowledged while he trimmed his fingernails onto the floor. Just go to another gas station, this place is disgusting."

"Sign on the door specifies the restroom is only for paying customers. Are we really doing this in the only gas station off of the highway in the middle of nowhere? I literally had to buy a pack of gum so my 4 year old could use the restroom."

"In a word? Rundown. However it’s unusual because it seems that maybe at one time this place was a lot nicer and did a lot more business. It’s just off the beaten path from the Kentucky Speedway, and there seems to be a racing theme throughout. Including a cement floor with a custom paint job made to look like a garage. I’ve included a picture. Sharing the same lot, and there’s a lot of parking, is what appears to be a bar that has long since been closed. Perhaps catering to the racing fans. There’s also a Grass lot in the same area with a picnic table. As if race fans might have sat there at one time. In fact I included a picture if you look closely, you can see the actual Raceway stadium seating. It’s visible from across the highway. So it adds to the confusion as to why this place is kind of run down. This is definitely a small town kind of place. There are rocking chairs and a table in the front of the gas station, they sort of have like a porch set up going. The gas is affordable and they are six pumps including diesel. Inside the gas station is also an eerie reminder of what used to be. It’s not that it’s a total dump. The bathrooms are bad. But they do have anything that you could possibly want from a convenience store gas station. Plenty of beer, plenty of soda and candy, plenty of beef jerky, cigarettes and everything else. They also sell hats gloves and T-shirts as well as motor oil for gasoline automobiles and diesel. It’s just that there’s something disheveled about this place. Like maybe the owner Is going to be retiring next year and just doesn’t really care anymore. You don’t need to be afraid to go in. It’s a very safe area but like I said it’s just kind of run down."

"Gas prices were reasonable, plenty of space in the parking lot, and the staff was friendly. However, the store itself was in disrepair, boxes laying around the floor, and the bathroom wasn’t very clean. I wouldn’t recommend going into the store."
