Star Laundry

Does the job, bring lots of quarters, lookout for crabby customers who may give you the eye if you happen to open the door just past 90 degrees.

I hate doing laundry, but coming to this little laundromat is actually rather pleasant ! The lady who runs it is very nice, they have a large selection of magazines to read, and they have a bathroom.
They also have some high volume machines in there that I like to use when I wash my comforter.

An OK place for laundry, but unlike they advertise: THEY DO NOT DRY CLEAN. Trying to find parking around this place is a night mare too. I highly suggest you call with what you need PRIOR to making the trip.

First of all I would like to point out that Google Maps has this place listed as Huntington Square Coin-​Op Laundry. So let’s just clear up that confusion right now!
I went here for the first time today and I have to say that I am pleased. I am much closer to a number of other laundromats, but my roommates and fellow Unilocalers have given them less than stellar reviews. I simply do not understand how you can run a laundromat, a shrine to cleanliness, and let it be utterly disgusting!
But that is not the case with Star Laundry. It is very clean and almost all the machines worked. I think I may have seen one out of order sign on a dryer. The washing machines are $ 4 each (18lbs of laundry) and the dryers are $ 0.25÷4 minutes. The dryers are huge and easily fit two loads of laundry and everything actually comes out dry (and I had towels and washcloths in there!) So I got a month’s worth of laundry done for $ 10. Of course I wear my clothes until they either smell or need tightened up! There is also a change machine which takes 1, 5, 10, and 20 dollar bills. There is also a detergent machine though I prefer to bring my own.
There’s a nice little courtyard out back where you can sit and read on a nice day, but not much sitting room inside. Though I did notice that it is next door to a Subway. Perhaps it is a good idea to do your laundry while having lunch? Another draw back is that there is only one folding table, so best go when it’s not busy. I went on a Monday morning and practically had the place to myself!

We love Star Laundry. Janis is always in there running the place and she is a sweetheart. We wait and only do our laundry every other weekend so the big machines are great when you are doing big loads. They have a small bathroom that’s always clean and a nice shared back patio when it’s good weather. The TV is always on and the people that use the facility are always very nice. All in all this place has everything you want in a laundromat.

Great place. I was a little shocked when I had to pay $ 5.25 for a wash, but when I did the laundry-​math the value turned out to be great. The largest washer holds way more than 25 pounds. I could fit 8 pairs of jeans, 30+ shirts, and my towels and sheets. It would take me easily 4 loads (at $ 3 each) to do that at school.
The dryers are pretty effective. There is one dryer that is twice as large as the others, but its the same price. I always try to grab that one to stretch my drying dollar.

12 lb of laundry = $ 1.75
20 lb of laundry = $ 3.75
25 lb of laundry = $ 5.75
Dryers = $ 0.25÷4 min
Not too bad if you get the 12 lb washing machines. Otherwise, you’re stuck doing laundry in the larger machines (and thus, wasting your money). It’s small, but there are plenty of washers and dryers to choose from. The staff that run it are friendly, nice, and always willing to hold the door for you when you’re struggling to drag 50 lb of month-​old (now clean) laundry back to your apartment.
Thankfully it’s about 3 minutes down the street, right in the vicinity of Mission Hill. There’s no need to worry about inclines, either (unless you’re coming down the hill to get there).
