    Gilroy, CA

    1.0 star rating
    11/10/2010

    This place is the worst station in town. I mean, it's literally the shittiest dive in Gilroy, and that's really sinking to new lows. Gilroy is a real shithole. It used to be a Beacon, then a 76, now it's AmeriGas. Can't keep a franchise long?

    Every pump has some problem, from displays being cracked or out of order in some other way to not pumping a certain grade of gas at times.

    The squeegee (singular) they have out is only due to my requesting one. I stood at the counter for 10 minutes to get it. You're welcome. It's also too short for me to reach across my windshield and wipe in one stroke. If you use two strokes, you're left with squeegee marks. I'm not the tallest person, but I am 5' 10". I should be able to reach the far side of a windshield with a squeegee. Apparently not.

    Whe you go to pay, buy something inside or simply ask for the manager or owner, the attendant is usually facing away from you, playing on the laptop they have in there.

    I spoke with the manager, Hilda several times over the last 2 months and have made several complaints. She offered to bring them up to the owners every time. I asked that she have the owners call me directly upon hearing my complaints to discuss them. I even left my phone number.

    So, the owners apparently don't give a damn about their business. I've called Unocal 76 and tried to get contact info for the owners or at least leave a message. Maybe that's why they changed to AmeriGas.

    They also rent U-Haul equipment here. I called U-Haul trying to get contact info. I figure if you're going to give someone $1m worth of equipment, you're going to know how to contact them. That's another Yelp for another time.
