Ok let's get the most important thing out of the way first... this charging station only supports up to 150 kW only. I will consider that a medium speed for a full charge you are looking at about 30% longer wait times.

I don't know why the Tesla built in navigation system always redirects you to this one whenever they think you need a charge while traveling on highway 5. I think the much wiser and better option will be to drive right next door to the mall across the freeway where you got more than double the amount of charging stalls and a much faster 250 kW charging rate. And a plethora of other benefits such as you can enjoy the mall while you wait. But alas, Tesla never directs me over there. It's always this one.

Speaking of this particular charging station, I think it is really nice that it had a partially covered structure as it could have been raining, but there are only about four or five stalls under it so there could be a line to wait for. There are decent food options around. You have to walk a block over to the closest spot which is a Chipotle. They also got plenty of bathrooms nearby. Overall it is okay but given the charging quality I would not consider this an exceptional choice.

Convenient. It is located near many chain food and Starbucks. BUT 150kw stations. It was taking forever. I drove across the freeway for the 250kw.

Good size, fast and great location for a bite and restroom. Nice outdoor patio at the sub place where you can still see your car (though there is highway noise).

Bad Supercharger station. 0 of 6 slots open, 4 waiting in front of me. Does not have enough charging stations (6). Stopped by on a Tue afternoon, all the stalls were full. They need to add more. Based on current EV limitations and range anxiety, there should never be maxed out locations like this. Given the tech, it should be reasonably easy to track usage and show on the Supercharger maps how many stalls are open vs in-use before making a big trip to find they're all full.

Pros: Right off freeway, lots of eateries, Starbucks.

This is very hot spot (temperature), so having a covered charging station is absolutely amazing! You will still need to keep the AC running but the shade helps so much during the day! There’s a mountain to cross (southbound), so it’s definitely necessary to pay here a visit before heading further down south via 5.
There are tons of shops and restaurants nearby, making this one of the most convenient and important supercharger before heading to LA!

Kinda pathetic that you need to go to gas station for bathrooms. Plenty of chargers, some are worn out and need replacement. I didn't see any 250kW. Complicated freeway access (northbound), can be a chore with some traffic.
