“Stopped here to get gas. This place is Convenient off the 8 fwy and has plenty of gas stalls and a big store for snacks and restroom break. The entrance and exit are separate so don’t go on the exit.”

“Watch out if your using your card because they can keep charging you even if your not there. I was charged twice for the same transaction for the same amount in the same day. They say “How can we charge you twice? There’s only one receipt!” That’s all that needed is that one receipt”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best gas station around—not the cheapest, but clean, stocked, and easy in and out. But the real reason it’s five stars? The Sams. Doesn’t matter which one you get, though—both make the place worth stopping at.”

“I was really excited when I walked in but then they had run out of the thing I came for, which was a bummer but i also should of checked. The people working there were super nice about it and helped me find something else just as good, honestly their service makes up for a lot. I got a drink that was perfectly made and the space itself has such a great relaxed vibes its easy to spend way too long hanging around. It would be perfect if they just kept better stock on popular items thats my only real complaint, pretty much live around here and will keep coming back despite that.”

“This gas station ⛽️ has many pumps and are spaced well for larger vehicles, and people pulling RVs. It's a pull-thru type place. Where you come in the first driveway and exit the other driveway ahead of where you came in. The windshield cleaning tools were in good condition. The facility was clean and well stocked convenience store.”

“Great location right off the exit with excellent lighting and feels safe to pump gas this late. This location has 24hr store for restrooms and snacks. I will say the gas is very expensive at this location compared to inland areas of the city.”

“Quick stop for gas and snacks for our drive back to AZ but the lady at the counter was the friendliest person we’ve met at a gas station. Bathroom is right around the building and needed a key but her customer service was refreshing. She was chatting and joking with my boys. Thank you!!”
