This rest stop is usually packed mainly with trucks but the bathrooms are in below average condition and they all have graffiti or something key scratch into the bathroom.

As soon as I saw the signs for "rest stop ahead" I literally gunned it to the exit ramp to get in here at full speed. Pulling in, there's plenty of car and truck parking, and a HUGE grass area for whatever you may need. Dog who need to run for a moment or two, picnic tables for eating, plenty of shade if you need to sit outside for a while, etc. It was actually kind of relaxing to look at for the few minutes I was there and I enjoyed my time here. The building itself is literally a men's and women's bathrooms with a very small entrance area and benches. The facilities are clean, well stocked and there's about 5 stalls in the women's bathroom. While not the biggest or baddest rest stop I've ever been too, it was a nice stop none the less. Easy on and off the expressway, clean and plenty of room in the beautiful grassy area to do what you need to do.

There are separate structures for the vending machines and the bathrooms. The rest area is not staffed though I'm sure it's regularly patrolled by the state police, or at least I hope that it is.

It seemed a little secluded and unattended and silent and quiet. Spooky even. There was not much going on and I didn't notice any places to eat or drink anything. Just some vending machines and some toilets and not somewhere that I would sleep for the night, and this is coming from someone that has slept on the streets of Queens one too many times.
