64 reviewsMy experience was great. The laundry mat wasn't busy when I went and It was clean. The radio station they had playing was a good one and I want to know the station it was. Definitely coming back until I get my own washer and dryer at my spot.
I come here to do my laundry when it’s too much and I want to get all done in one go. It is usually quiet when I come by and I can just enjoy it. It’s also pretty affordable. It’s also nice they have pay with card cause I’ve ran out of quarters before. Dryers take a little longer to dry but it’s always been an issue at every laundromat I go to. I do wish that a place I can sit and do homework or something while I wait.
Edit 4/24/23 While I still think it’s a decent, peaceful spot for laundry, I’m knocking off 2 star because of something that happened. The website clearly stated that the last load is at 8:30, but at exactly 8:30, a guy showed up, rushing me because they were supposedly closing. Oddly enough, both the website and Google/Apple Maps said they close at 10. He just stood there watching me pack my laundry away, completely killing the chill vibe. If they’ve changed their hours, they really need to update their website. Being rushed resulted in some of my clothes still being damp. And this wasn’t the first time; the same guy did something similar during my last visit, although he didn’t say anything then, just watched. It’s disappointing because I’ve noticed they’ve been making little updates to make the place cute.
Hi Janet, really appreciate you coming by and using the laundromat. Glad you enjoyed our new payment options while visiting and look forward to seeing you next time!
Literally the worst laundromat I’ve ever had the misfortune of using. I have tried to give it SO many chances since it’s the closest place to me but it only gets worse and worse. …
These machines are busted and eat your money. It says to scan the QR code to download an app to get your money back “within minutes” which is absolutely not gonna happen. …
Hi Mana,
Very sorry you had issues using the mobile app. We absolutely can refund you money back that has been "eaten" within minutes. Please feel free to reach out directly or request the refund there within the app and we will gladly get this issue resolved!
Friendly staff under new ownership, inexpensive but great quality wash and dry.
Skyler, thank you for visiting our laundromat and glad you had a good experience! Come see us again :)
Do not go to this laundromat!! Nothing was working when I tried to do my laundry, there was a guy trying to get the machines to work and was angry because two of the machines had taken his money!! No one there to assist you on these machine just bad overall!!!
Hi Alberto, I am sorry for your experience here. New management has taken over and new machines with modern payment options will soon be available in the coming month to avoid any future payment issues. We hope to see you again soon!
It's usually pretty good. At my complex if they charge $2 to wash $2 to dry. The laundromat is only two blocks from my house so I just go there instead and last time I went it was nice and quiet. Nobody was there every once a while though the dryer. She's still your quarters but other than that is pretty good place. they were closed quite a while for remodeling and every time I asked him what when the open date is they tell me and that date passes with no open date. So just beware of that.
UPDATE..... They are open and better than ever. The washers are brand new. They've got four different choices for sizes of washers. The drivers are still the same but I'm sure they work a lot better. I'm sure they've been updated. If you download the app you get free $5 in credit and when you refill yours if you put 20 on your on the account you get an extra $10 so it's it's awesome. It's amazing! Got to come check it out!
UPDATE: IV YOU WANNA DO LAUNDRY WITHOUT PAINT OUT FROM HEAT & LACK OF AIRFLOW... DO NOT GO HERE!! TALKED TO OWNER BOUT THIS ISSUE & HE SHOWED ABSOLUTELY NO CONCERN. ALL HE SAID WAS EVERYONE IS DEALING WITH HEAT. I AM SUGGESTING LEE'S LAUNDROMAT ON LOMBARD & DENVER.
Thank you Victoria for coming by. We are addressing the dryer issue, we will soon have card and mobile payment options on all our machines. We appreciate your feedback!
UPDATE: Hi Victoria yes speak about the dryer issue and sorry you had a bad experience using them this afternoon. There were multiple ways I showed concern and solutions to the problem including reimbursement. Feel free to give us another call or come by and we will continue to make this right. Thanks! :)
