It seems to get confused when you say you are a Circle K member. What's even odder, is it looks like the transaction cancelled on your phone, but then I was able to pump gas! Later on, I checked my receipts and sure enough, it was there. I kept thinking I was doing something wrong but this has now happened on multiple occasions whereas I don't have any problems at other Mobile/Exxon locations. Oh well.., As for everything else, it's pretty easy to get in and out of, especially if you're heading out of town. Just a couple of turns and you're on I10. Perfect. It's very clean and I've always felt safe. There are also enough pumps I've never had a problem getting the side I need. The Circle K store is nice as well. BTW: Most of the photos on here are company stock photos. I might try and take some more real one's next time.

This last visit, I was on my way in and really needed to use the restroom. It was Saturday, on the weekend of Coachella, so they were busy! I was thrilled to see you didn't need a code to get into the restroom. THANK YOU FOR THAT! The restroom was your standard gas station restroom, though. It was clean, but had been put through its paces. Since I always feel like I should buy something if I use their facilities, I saw they had 2 donuts for $3.00 and Maple Bars! SOLD! Luckily, the line inside was super short, so it was a quick purchase. Well, these maple bars were sadly horrible. The dough was OK, but the maple was awful. First, it dripped onto my shirt in the car! Then, I really couldn't even taste the maple. I mean, it was there, but not really. I ate about 1/2 of one and then threw it away, along with the other uneaten one. And I NEVER do that with a maple bar. The other inconsistency is their Slushie machine. It only seems to be working 1/3 of the time; the other 1/3, it's still spinning and freezes. So, it's 3 stars for OK.

First time visiting Palm Desert and my wife had a random non-negotiable craving: fried chicken…read more After some Reddit digging, Towers Market kept popping up. I'll be honest--gas station food usually lives somewhere in my college survival era memories, so I was skeptical... but I'm always open to try something new. Right when we walked in, we were greeted warmly and treated with genuine friendliness and respect, which already set a good tone. Just to be clear, I'm writing this review purely based on the fried chicken and the service related to getting it. I didn't come for gas or anything else, so please keep that in mind. Now let's talk chicken. 5/5 -- no hesitation. We ordered the chicken strips along with wings and drumsticks, and wow. Super crispy, well-seasoned, and flavorful all the way through. Honestly? It rivaled Raising Cane's, which feels wild to say about a gas station--but here we are. Reddit did not steer us wrong. Most importantly, it absolutely satisfied my wife's fried chicken itch, and that alone makes this stop a win. Bonus points because my 9 month old daughter seemed to love it as well!! Unexpected, impressive, and definitely worth checking out if you're in the area and craving fried chicken. Would I come back? Without question.

Hopefully management keeps this in mind when considering promotions. :)

Stopped by this Costco in Palm Desert to fill up on gas, and go inside (if not too crowded). Found…read moreit to be so less crowded than our neighborhood SoCal ones. Gas has reached over $6 a gallon now, so actively looked for a Costco while traveling from Palm Desert to Joshua Tree. The entrance to the gas station is not meant for high volume, with the eight lanes (4 islands, 2 pumps each so no need for parallel parking in a middle spot) having space for 3 individual cars behind. Once those fill up, there is no space except to go out to the street. Price was significantly less than the surrounding stations, and the paying/pumping was exactly the same as every other Costco (one tap if you have the Citi Costco card). We did go inside the Costco, with the mandatory membership card tap to enter. Once we got our few items, lines weren't too bad with additional checkers using hand held scanners to individually scan each item in the cart, eliminating need to have to put any items on the conveyor. It does make it faster...it's not Amazon Fresh that needs the RFID 'scan the whole cart at once' technology, but Costco. The food court is inside and wasn't too crowded, and would have stopped if we didn't have other plans. The $1.50 hot dog/drink special always tempts me.

What a find! On our…read moreway back to Arizona from Cali (with two toddlers and a dog) we stumbled upon Shelees Travel Center and couldn't have been more pleased with our stop! It's never easy finding a pace to stop on a road trip, but this place has it all. Plenty of gas pumps, a little dog park area, the cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen at a gas station, an incredible selection of healthy, salty, sweet, indulgent treats/snacks/food/drinks, and a safe and comfortable place for our whole family to get out of the car and stretch our legs. Shelees is easy to get to right off the freeway, can be a long or quick stop depending on your needs and then you're all filled up, refreshed and ready to hit the road again. We will be frequent visitors on our Cali road trips from now on.

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!

While dispensing the petrol into my car, I decide to walk in as I have heard about different food items available on the go. I picked up a breakfast burrito for my wife and a Cuban Sandwich for yours truly. Being of Cuban descent, I have had so many Media Noches and standard Cuban's. The sandwich I picked up wrapped and ready was $6.49 and DELICIOUS! Was it gourmet? No, but for the price and the amount an incredible value. I know where I will be going when I get the next wild hair.

I walked around for a bit while I looked for a snack and drink! And I was very impressed at the selection of everything they had there! There is so much to choose from from simple snacks and candy to full on meals depending on what your in the mood for! And the drink selection was incredible from water and soda to energy drink and healthy drinks to even a beer cooler and a hard alcohol section if that's what you're in the mood for! And I asked the worker if they were all locations were set up the same and he said yes! So I highly recommend this business and I'll definitely be back again!

I was told no appointments are needed, and they perform smogs until at least 4:00 pm. I arrived at 2:20 pm, and when I checked in, I realized I had left the renewal paperwork at home. I told Rudy I would write down the VIN number and license number legibly so he could fill out his paperwork. He then proceeded to inform me that it was not his job to read my writing. After I laughed, he said We stopped doing smogs at 2:00 pm today anyway. When you come back, make sure you don't screw up again and not bring the paperwork. He must have been the bully at his high school (assuming he went), because I have seen him give off that vibe multiple times to men. Needless to say, but I would rather light myself on fire than ever deal with him again. Plus, their coupon is a scam as well. If they write your name down before you show them the coupon, it is not valid. WTF!?!? I will give one of my associates the task of verifying whether this is even legal

After holding it for three days, Vince told me he couldn't figure it out and "doesn't work on valves." This is the same guy who repeatedly mentioned having 45 years of experience and working on Hondas with over 400k Instead of fixing it, he told me to go to the dealer for a $1300 repair he wouldn't or couldn't do--and then charged me $350 for diagnostic time. Imagine being told, "I can't fix it, but you still owe me $350." I feel cheated, because I never said not to do the work--I would have let him fix it. I basically paid $350 for his lack of knowledge. For som eone claiming decades of experience, a basic Honda V6 shouldn't be "too complex." Save yourself the headache, time, and money. If it's not just an oil change or something simple, go straight to a dealer or a shop with trained techs. Thats exactly what I paid 350 for so just start at the dealer.
