“Was driving up to the Central Coast and my wife needed to use the restroom. Stopped here for the first time and decided to get gas as well. Very nice gentleman running the cash register and even opened the door to the bathroom for my wife. Clean gas station and bathrooms. We'll definitely stop here again if needed as we go to the Central Coast about 4 times a year.”

“I’ve been driving rigs longer than some of these stations have been standing, and let me tell you — you remember a place with good toilets. This one? Outstanding. Pulled in after a long stretch of road and braced myself for the usual horrors, but instead I found clean floors, no smells that knock you sideways, plenty of paper, and a lock that actually works. Stalls were roomy enough for a big guy like me, and everything looked like it’d been cleaned recently — not three days ago “recently,” but actually recently. Sinks had hot water, soap that wasn’t watered down to nothing, and mirrors you could look in without flinching. Sounds silly, but when you live half your life on the road, this stuff matters. A clean bathroom can turn a rough day into a manageable one. If I’m rolling through this way again, I’ll be stopping here without hesitation — fuel for the truck, coffee for me, and a bathroom I don’t have to mentally prepare for. — A road-worn trucker who knows a good toilet when he sees one 🚛🚽”

“Found this place on Gas Buddy. It had a really good rate if you paid cash. $4.89 a gallon. It's a good app. You don't have to join, it works to find you inexpensive gas near you.”
