This gas station does actually have an air pressure kiosk which is called XactAir and helps you set the PSI on a digital display screen and then you just press the nozle against your tyre valve. When the air pressure reaches the set PSI, the machine will beep several times and flashes the set PSI several times.
The only thumbs down point is that you will have to spend $2.50 on card or $2.00 if cash in the form of quarters. As I went at night when the gas station was closed and there was no one to turn the air kiosk on, I had to spend $2.50.
Californian Law says that the air and water has to be provided free of cost at all times but I guess the authorities need to pay this gas station a visit.

Do not get gas here it is a scam they do not take card and only cash. I’ve paid the same amount as usual but here I noticed that I receive less gas than other places with the same price.

I like this gas station it has reasonably priced gas compared to other stations, it has a atm chip card scanner so you dont have to stick your card into a rigged chipp reader or go into a store and slide your card. Watch out for gas stations who dont have this feature, people will try to use your card numbers to buy every thing they want including gas.

Small gas station, but has almost everything you need. Very organized and clean. Gas prices are very competitive. Very good customer service.

So, I'm at the pump, and I'm confused as to why it's not starting to dispense gas after I've put in my card. Then I realize the person at the pump behind me is having the same issue. Turns out, they OUT OF GAS. How do we know, i tiny little note taped to the window of the store. A lot of help that was! Thanks for wasting my time, once again. Too bad we couldn't have gotten a quality gas station at such a convenient location.

Cheap gas at the right price and nice, clean station. In Castro Valley for generic gas I recommend

Issues with personal! On brakes, change over/ shift switch, out by the pumps. So you either pay an extra 10cents a gallon or find another station.

Credit card reader at the pumps is out of order. I have to go to cashier to pay. Very inconvenient.

If you want the lowest price you have to pay with cash and the only way to do that is by having to deal with the cashier/attendant. The gas is cheap but the attitude of some of the employees leaves a hell of a lot be desired.

First the pump was soooo slow, it took a while to fill the tank. My van is a 22 gallon capacity. But the pump didn't stop and was selling 23 gallons already, and seemed it wasn't stopping. Manager wasn't there and customer service was helpless.

Useless gas station with waste manager. Had been visiting here since couple of years and now it's customer unfriendly with no politeness.

We own a commercial van. I often fill my gas here. When ever I meet the manager in store we were turned down if we don't have correct change with the cash transaction. The manager was careless, absolutely rash and rude with the customers. It's not a single time occurrence, it happens every single day!
The previous staff who worked here often told me to reach out the owner as they felt like the same way with the manager. There's no one who could provide me with the owner's contact. The manager rejected to give the contact. It's the manager who rejects a transaction. It's better to save your time avoiding this gas stop unless it's manager is fixed. It's crazy experience with her.

Lowest price gas in town; to date, hopefully it stays that way and is not because it is a new station.

Great prices
Super location
It would be five stars but to pay if your handicapped too far to walk to cashier!

Drove up to get fuel. Tried to use debit card (twice). The pump asked me to "see cashier". Went to open front door was locked and sign said "Back in 15-minutes" (bathroom break?). Yikes. So, I drove away and found a gas station that could be used (and basically paid the same as this one). Maybe I'll try again?
