We've been to this particular Costco gas station a number of times on our trips up and down the…read more101. Normally it's all good. Last visit, on Monday evening, 1/19/26, it wasn't the best experience. First, despite not being that crowded there were a few other drivers that don't seem to understand how to park their cars in such a way that others can move past them in the center lane. Two in particular didn't straighten out when they parked, so they were blocking the through lane and impeding others from getting to a tank. Okay, we waited that out, shaking our heads at the cluelessness. Everyone wants to be able to gas and go; getting back on the road. That was being adversely affected by a couple of drivers who didn't "get it". Finally, it was our turn. Upon the finish of the gassing up cycle, there was a weird popping sound when the automatic shutoff on the pump handle instead of stopping, it kept going. There was also a small leak in the hose which was dribbling extra gas onto our car. Thankfully, there was an attendant close by who hurried over and helped my husband get the handle under control. As it was, there was gas on the exterior of our car. It was startling, and not in a good way. It could have been a serious situation if fumes were accidentally ignited. My husband thankfully didn't get gas on his skin or clothes, but it was a close call. The attendant did apologize, but that was all. I would hope that pump would immediately be taken out of service. He was working on cleaning up the gas on the pavement as we were leaving the area. Scary stuff! When we turned on the ignition that cabin of the car smelled very pungently of gas. I suggested that we go nearby ASAP and get the car washed as we still had a two hours' drive to get home. This just served as a reminder that filling the car with gas isn't a routine activity to not take seriously. Being present mentally is something to really keep in mind. This isn't a situation one would normally imagine could happen at a Costco, but that's why they're called accidents when something goes wrong out of the blue.

Pretty much bothered us the entire time and only backed off when a manager told her to because he saw we clearly weren't doing anything other than just trying to scan our items. Girl goes to bat wayyyy too hard for a company that pays her minimum wage. Everything else was fine.

There are parking lot is really bad as far as trying to get in or get out. The place is also completely filled with families that find it necessary to bring every member of every generation with them. Strangely, there is garbage in the parking lot all the time everywhere. I've never been to a Costco that had this. Even San Francisco Costco has a better parking experience than Santa Maria Costco. Not exaggerating.

Their restrooms are FREE. You don't need to pay for something to use basic utilities. That is golden when you're traveling. Their restrooms are also CLEAN and there's multiple available. Which is priceless. The entire store is clean, stocked, and kept impeccably. Everything looks organized. Usually I feel scared at gas stations as a young woman, but this location made me feel comfortable. Would recommend as a rest stop!

When I contacted and advised Arco manager; "Sharif" of what his "vindictive employee Marco" had done, Arco manager; "Sharif" said that even though "Marco" was "a lot of trouble" to him; he had to "protect himself" ("at my expense"), and "absolutely nothing" was done.

There is an Associate who works there who is rude, unprofessional, racist and makes fun of customers in Spanish. She doesn't realize that I speak and understand Spanish and slang words as well. I have never been rude to her or any Associate there and do not deserve to be treated that way! I spoke to her calmly and respectfully about her behavior and learned later that she told all of the employees that they were rude to me! Needless to say, that this overly tattooed, immature, sour-faced (except when she is making fun of people), young woman will probably never excel in her limited life and unfortunately was probably never raised to be respectful and with dignity. The Manager of this business should be more vigilant of employees like her. I now rarely go to this store and frankly, AMPM should be more aware of this kind of disregard, disrespect and racist attitude Associates like her have towards customers.
