    One of the more scenic rest stops around, and certainly among the cleanest. This is prime the New Mexico welcome center on I-40 East, and its advisable to help them out with their data analytics (used for state funding) by providing only the zip code that you reside in. If traveling out of or to Arizona or California via I-40, I recommend stopping here. I-40 is notoriously without a lot of rest areas to stop at (unlike I-20), much less clean & comfortable ones. They really are few & far between. Sometimes, you'll get lucky where some stops provide free coffee & snacks, while sometimes you don't. I didn't see that option here. The parking area has quite a bit of available spots, particularly toward the left side (or furthest eastbound). I've actually taken 1 or 2 naps here during early morning and dusk hours, and noone really bothers you. Yet this is always subject to change due to panhandlers all over Arizona & New Mexico. Such is life.

    Lots of truck parking.large spaces. Much room for parking. The place was clean & no bad smells. Some area for walking to shake your legs out, after long hours of driving.

    Don't stop here if traveling with dogs. Employees are super rude. Outside access to bathrooms has been locked, general area is pretty dirty,
