There are many gas bays that are tall enough for RVs with plenty of pumps to get you in and out quick. Regular fuel was about the same as in my town which was pretty good for just off the highway. The convenience store is large with lots of food and snacks. Prices are typical C-store so a bit more than a grocery store but I never seem to plan ahead for snacks. The store and grounds were very clean and free of debris. The service was acceptable-not overly friendly just kind of ignored me as she rang me up. It's a great place to stop when heading that way. I recommend it and would go again.

Filthy restrooms and the pumps don't work half the time. This place continues to go downhill.read more

Sheelee's Travel Center is one of the better gas stations in this area for snacks and restrooms…read more You won't find too much of a crowd here because you do have to veer of the 10 freeway a bit and go about 1 exit towards the Sultan Sea to get here. If you're going east, don't make a right out of Shelee's because Google maps will have you take the 10 west and flip you back around. Now that we know that, we'll probably stop by this exit again during our road trips out of CA. The facilities are really clean and they have a gourmet coffee shop inside. I loved my mocha latte!

Glad that I stopped to fill up!…read more From the outside, this travel center doesn't look particularly grand, but stepping inside is a totally different story--it's surprisingly spacious, clean, and upscale for a gas station. The pumps are well-spaced, so fueling up is stress-free and never congested. Inside, the store is a delight: an awesome selection of candy, snacks, fresh coffee, and even gadgets and clothing you don't usually see on the road. Everything is organized perfectly, making browsing a joy. The service is just as impressive. Danary, the cashier, was fantastic--friendly, welcoming, and full of genuine compliments, which was especially appreciated since I felt like a total hot mess that day. Her energy made the visit feel personal and memorable. The coffee shop/ snack restaurant inside added an extra layer of comfort, making this stop not just convenient for fuel, but a place to grab a bite or a coffee and recharge before hitting the road again. Side note: I had no idea that Coachella was also a city and for years, thought that it was the name of the event. Embarrassing (In my Drake voice) ‍ ‍ Definitely stop here to fill up!

Salton City Travel Plaza/ Thermal, CA. Nov, 2025. We were traveling on 86-southbound from Indio,…read moreand stopped at this travel plaza. Located on the corner of Highway 86 and S Marina Drive, this travel plaza seems to provide everything that a traveler might need -- fuel and diesel Chevron), tons of food choices and ample dining tables (Pizza Hut, Subway, Cinnabon, Taco Bell, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Yogurtland, Jack in the Box, The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, Imperial County, and Salton 350 Bar), clean restrooms, a general store with travel necessities, and more. What was particularly interesting about this travel stop was seeing the local culture of the large number of ATVers. Virtually every second truck had an off-highway vehicle (OHV) in its bed or on its trailer. Not being local, we're not sure where they were going to ride, but we speculated that a significant number were headed to the Imperial Sand Dunes. These dunes, in southeastern California, stretch over 40 miles long and average 5 miles wide, and are a popular recreation site. While the travel plaza was easy to access, and had everything that you might need, we've rated it as a 4 rather than 5 because of the chaos of the plaza. All of the gas bays were occupied, with all sorts of vehicles vying for a place -- from motorcycles to OHVs to cars to tanker trucks to 18-wheeler. We chose to park "next door" because of the chaos in front of the travel plaza. It also made it easier to re-enter the highway.

This is not a convenience if you have to pump your gas then go inside to wait in line for a receipt. My business spends hundreds of dollars in fuel on a weekly basis. This will be the last time I buy fuel from Tower. I want to pump my gas take my receipt and move on. I do not want to have to go inside to collect it.

Impound it because of my poor decision of being parked in the street with the permit to be there, but a lot of cars were parked illegally, but only my son car was towed. Here it is their response: Julio if you choose to leave a negative review or remarks then at the very least provide some support or documentation to justify your complaint. Unfortunately your quick to make unjustified claims about our services? Why was your vehicle towed. In closing if you can't provide the audience a foundation for your complaint then how can it be valid, or maybe your just upset because your poor decisions lead to your car be impounded by law enforcement and now you have to pay the consequences
