Santa Monica Unocal

No public restroom. Was directed to the Burger King across the street instead. I’d rather pump gas at a station that permits customers to use their facilities.

$ 0.60 more per gallon than the nearest station? It’s like traveling though time into the future of gas prices. Good thing I didn’t pull into the inadequately marked Full Serve isle which costs $ 5.99 a gallon.
It’s not like the station is well kept or anything. If you are looking for a station with no wait, this is the one for you.

Pulled up and saw the guys that work at the smog station smoking cigarettes. And l promptly left.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES GIVE THESE CROOKS YOUR BUSINESS!!!
Yesterday I took my propane tank to this store on the corner of Pico and 20^th. Rather than doing a traditional tank exchange the attendant behind the counter named Roberto indicated that they would be wiling to fill the tank instead.
Being unfamiliar with a tank fill, I asked him if this might invite problems or safety issues. He assured me it would not, so I agreed to allow them to fill it.
They charged me just under $ 20, and I was on my way.
Now, keep in mind that I am an experienced griller. I know my way around a propane tank, having exchanged dozens and dozens over the years with NO problems.
When I installed the tank that the attendants here filled, however, within a mere minute the regulator began smoking. I rushed over to see the problem and realized that the regulator had FROZEN OVER AS THOUGH IT WERE SHOT THROUGH WITH DRY ICE. It was dripping frozen water down the side and spraying smoke everywhere.
So, I unscrewed the tank and called the store to tell them it was over-​filled and to ask for my money back. To my utter surprise, not only were they not apologetic, but they were out and out HOSTILE to me for even ASKING for a refund!
So I asked for the store owner’s name and was told his name was Miguel and he would be in in the AM.
This morning I went to discuss this with Miguel and was, once again, dismissed with a wave when I asked for my money back.
Needless to say, I have already filed a complaint with the parent company ConocoPhilips, the better business bureau, and the Consumer Protection Agency, but I wanted to make sure that I discouraged everyone on Unilocal!from giving these crooks your money as well.
Trust me, it’s worth it to go the extra half a mile to the next station.
