I usually spend a minimum of 2 hours washing the car myself at home but one day I was in a hurry and decided to try this place out. I live closeby and figured I can give my car a quick soap and pressure rinse and use my own towel to dry. The water is unbelievably hard and you pay $2.50 (only quarters) to get only about 4 minutes of washing. There is also the option of a "spot-free rinse" but the water comes out in such a slow and small amount that is is kind of useless.

Kind of so-so experience: Tools are good and system is fine. But the posted 3 dollars does not get your car washed (unless you are some kind of washing wizard). Bring plenty quarters: Their change machine did not look like it has been working this decade. Nearby convenience store is fed up with providing change for the car wash. Ideally bring somebody to help you and feed the machine: Once it runs to zero you have to refill to $3 again.

Four minute car wash that doesnt beat an automatic wash. When the quarters are dropping and there is no line, you cant beat it for a quick pay and spray at the beach. Some vacuums help. There are two change machines - one accepts $1s AND $5s the other only takes $1 bills. Never used the brushes but theyre there if your automobile needs a brushing.

I go here frequently to wash my motorcycle, and it works alright. But I feel it could be improved. Could be cleaner and more updated. Also paid towel dispenser took my $s and did not give me a towel. Never have seen anyone working there, (when Ive had problems) but someone must. Its a good enough place to be popular in its area.

The attendant there was careless and reckless with pushing the garbage canister around and pushed it directly into my car and dented it. Tried to call the number on website and is no longer in service. And on top of it he was an Ass about it.

Great location, fun place to wash your car. Sometimes I find the suds are out or low and the place should be maintained a bit better, so thats why its not a 5 star.

Average do it yourself place. The coin machine just ate my $5. I know mistakes happen, but I dont think Ill come back because I can not trust the coin machine.

I work across the street. for a little more than a days parking you get a clean car. Im a VERY fussy car owner and they do a great job even on the basic wash.

So quick and easy and much better than the crazy expensive hand washes around town. It never has any problems.

$2 for wash. $1 for vacuum. The change machine doesnt always work. Best to bring your own quarters.

Loc Tran

Pretty straightforward car wash facilities. $2 for 4 minutes of a single cycle.

David Cheng

My go-to place for spray bays for over 4 years. Only $2 to start.

Ben Miskie

8 quarters for 4 minutes. The trick is to come with a friend!
