Provided by YP.comSome gas stations are bright and shiny or sleek and efficient. They at least try not to be eyesores, but here we have a gas station that can only be described as tired, rundown, and generally cruddy. Let's start with the gas pumps themselves: One would not think that erstwhile graffitti artists would bother to deface something as mundane as gas pumps and, in particular, that little window where one needs to see the price of one's gas, but here they do, scratching inanities that all but obscure the numbers. (If these are gang members, they certainly are small-timers.) Thinking of washing your car windows? Forget it; there is no windshield washer fluid to do so, or there is, but it looks so dirty and gross you skip it. Paper towels? Surprise! Someone has broken the dispenser. From a technical (and aesthetic) point, this Chevron station needs help. As for their dubious mechanic services, I avoid it completely; it seems like the kind of garage you take your car to where getting a new battery installed turns into the mechanical version of brain surgery. If the price of the work doesn't give you a heart attack the second hand smoke will. (Armenian men have a love affair with cigarettes; they should familiarize themselves with the mechanics of 24 hour oxygen dependence before fixing one more flat tire.) I might mention that the place does aim for convenience. You can get your soda and chips fix, and they have a working ATM. They also sell some bizarre little novelty gift items at the counter inside for those prone to buying gifts at a gas station.(?) Otherwise, this "engine" needs an overhaul.
