I stopped at this Shell station primarily because I needed to use the bathroom, and I have to say,…read morethis restroom exceeded my completely imaginary expectations. From the moment I opened the door, I was greeted by an atmosphere that can only be described as "surprisingly bathroom-like." The fluorescent lighting provided a soothing glow somewhere between a hospital hallway and a supermarket freezer aisle. The sink was particularly impressive. Water came out when I turned the handle, which is exactly the sort of dependable engineering I look for in a public restroom. The paper towel dispenser also performed admirably, dispensing a paper towel after only a brief struggle. Five stars for persistence. The toilet itself appeared to be securely attached to the floor, which inspired considerable confidence. The seat was approximately the temperature I expected, and the flush produced a satisfying sound that suggested several gallons of water had been sent heroically into the plumbing system. There was also soap available, although I cannot confirm whether it was actually soap because I did not conduct laboratory testing. Still, it looked soapy, and sometimes that is enough. Overall, this bathroom delivered a memorable experience for a room whose primary purpose is to be forgotten immediately. Would I specifically drive across town to visit it again? Absolutely not. But if I happened to be at the station and nature called, I would answer.

They left an impression this last hurricane season by personally directing traffic to keep it moving efficiently and stopping people from cutting.

They do not allow loitering so there is no panhandling or people hanging outside which I appreciate as a young woman.

Well, what this place lacks in feeling safe, it makes up for in cheap as heck gas…read more I don't know what it is about this gas station, but they seem to be able to keep their gas 5 to 10 cents lower than any other gas station in the area. With that said, the place is a little sketchy. I've been a few times and sometimes the card scanner on some of the pumps won't work and there always seems to be people just lurking around for no good reason. Also, the little "latch" on the pumps, that you hook so that your gas pumps without having to hold it, doesn't work on any of the pumps I've tried, so be warned if touching all over a gas pump is an issue for you. I've never had any of the food, but they have fried chicken if that's your thing.

I liked this store a lot…read more The Latina cashier and cook were very friendly and helpful. The hot bar was varied, with scrambled eggs and Spanish rice. I said to the cook, "La Cena es grande" - which she appreciated. (There is a very strong Spanish influence around here - and we are headed for Texas and Mexico - and I am working with my Duolingo Spanish app.) I heard a very impressive conversation between the Middle Eastern owner and a black guy who seems to be a business partner of his. There was not a squeegee or water at my pump. Otherwise, a really good operation. I would come back in a second.
