This is an alright gas station. Briefly when they re-branded/switched over to Mobil there prices were cheaper but now it's either the same or slightly higher than the Circle K and Valero west of here. It does *not* smell bad to me and the cashiers are generally pleasant.
There is a fee for debit/credit whether it's inside or outside. I forget to get cash for gas sometimes so I usually avoid the place now. The drinks, snacks and everything are much more, dollars more expensive than other places.
Go to Circle K for your foundation and energy drinks as well as your booze. Selection here is quite small. It's well lit and trash maintained often. Cops frequent the area and lot, sometimes see crazy or addicted people but never felt threatened.
Convenient location by the 101 and 202 highway.
