I DID like going here because it was clean but today I was folding my clothes on the table and this old attendant who barely spoke English came up and rudely said«MOVE!» I looked puzzled because I didn’t really understand why he wanted me to move but he said it again«MOVE!» I was about to walk out and take my business somewhere else but I had more clothes in the machine. What do they have tables for if you can’t fold on them?

I’ve been here several times to wash comforters or blankets that don’t fit in my apartment washer/dryer. I recently went here for drop off service and it was amazing. We had two weeks of laundry that would have taken days to do at home, but Marilyn at Laundryland had it taken care of while I was at work. Incredible time savings and for much less $ than I expected. Everything was folded nicely, smelled wonderful, and was of course clean. I might make drop-off laundry service a habit!

I drop my laundry off every week to have it washed, I don’t know what I’d do without it. Marilyn is the sweetest person ever, she’s the one who does the drop off laundry. At 65 cents per pound, you can’t beat it. I can do a weeks worth of laundry for $ 10 or less. I moved recently and one of the reasons I stayed in my neighborhood is so I could keep going to this laundromat.

Very nice location. The staff was nice and helpful. Unusual for a laundromat! I wish they had a TV.

I have been going here for over a year and have liked it but will no longer be going to this laundromat after the experience I had on my last visit. A woman who seemed to be a regular and friend of the manager started berating me the moment I walked in with my laundry as I stood at an empty table near her, saying I needed to keep my dirty, stinky laundry away from her. She escalated and started cursing at me and my partner until we felt unsafe. Meanwhile, she was chatting with other customers and the manager politely. I am used to encountering the occasional laundromat weirdo and am pretty adept at sidestepping any confrontations, but this interaction(with lots of expletives) lasted for the duration of my time there finishing my laundry. Before leaving I attempted to talk with the manager, who merely responded that she was surprised to hear about my experience because the woman goes to church. I plan on avoiding further negative interactions by finding a new laundromat since this woman is a regular… If you go here, try not to engage with anyone who might be a little off balance.

Well, my review could be biased– I haven’t been here in over a year… however I spent two years living down the street from this place and never had the negative experiences the other two reviewers had. First and foremost a lot of establishments have owners that have ESL issues– don’t be so ethnocentric and afraid of other cultures, just because there is a language barrier doesn’t make someone a moron– speak a bit more slowly and use gestures. With that, there is only one person, I believe the wife is the person who has a bit of an English barrier… I don’t think it’s as big of a deal as the others stated it to be. Also, the laundry facilities are always clean and much cheaper than the competitors down the street. They don’t have their hours posted– but they open at 6am and close at 10pm, last load 8:45pm… I gave such a high mark because especially during the winter, the owner/older man who works there would walk down with me to my apartment and carry my laundry so I wouldn’t have to worry about the ice/snow. He also was okay w/me leaving countless times to go run errands and did always keep an eye on my stuff. The big tip here is smiling I think– if you’re nice it’s amazing what people will do for you or act towards you.

This place is a complete rip off! As another reviewer said, there are no hours posted, and the dryers are horrible. My white shirt worn only once looks like it was ran over by a car. Black streaks everywhere from the dryer. The employees don’t speak English and can’t communicate or answer any of your questions. To top it off, the dryers are 25 cents for 6 minutes!!! Stay away from this place!

There are no hours posted ANYWHERE in this laundromat. I walk past this laundromat all the time and I’ve never seen it empty. I stopped in before bringing my laundry here looking for hours and found no information. Other laundromat’s close at 10 or 11 pm, so I assumed I had plenty of time when I went there at about 7:15 pm on a weeknight. By the time I started drying my clothes, I heard an employee turn away an arriving customer saying they were already closed. The employees either didn’t speak English well or did not feel very comfortable talking to me, but they did not tell me they were closed. After I saw them lock the doors and turn people away, I spent a very awkward 45 minutes trying to gently dry my clothes without ruining them. I was not successful; almost all of my clothes are shrunk, faded, or otherwise damaged. One employee did helpfully point out that some of their dryers are cheaper than others, and for that alone I’ll give them 2 stars. Overall a very creepy and awkward experience AND my clothes are in bad shape. One brand new shirt looks like it’s been washed 50 times.
