Card readers in 1 bay wouldn't work with my card. One bay was closed along with both automatic bays. Went to another bay. Truck wouldn't fit all the way in so I struggled to get the hose to reach the back. Soap didn't work on the soap setting. Changed the dial to rinse and a small amount of soap started to dispense. I settled for a really good rinse to get the salt off.

On a good note, it's only $2.50 for 5 minutes!

DON'T GO HERE! Only one machine takes bills for the spray stalls, and it just took my money. Total rip off!

DO NOT USE THIS CARWASH. Half the bays are always out of order. The ones that are supposedly working most likely will not accept coins. And even if you find one where you can actually use it, the rinse features are broken-so you'll coat your car in soap and then be SOL. I live right down the street, so I sometimes go here when I'm in a rush, but it's always bad. Whoever owns this carwash doesn't do any maintenance or checking. There are even piles of trash in some of the wash bays. Don't waste your time or money here.

First time using this car wash. The rinse setting wasn’t working, just kept spraying high pressure soapy water. Tried every setting and no plain rinse water. Wasted money trying to get it to work. People in other stall complained of same issue. Now I have to go to another car wash to rinse the soap.

Wasted $12.kept saying “drive slowly” and even tapped my car to the back wall and still didn’t work- still kept saying “move slowly”. Called the number and left a message. I wish I would’ve checked the review beforehand.

Paid $12 for a wash and the water never even started, it took my money and the wash never turned on, it just kept saying pull forward. I pulled all the way up to the back door and had to reverse out. A freakin scam, tried calling the number and the number does not work either

HORRIBLE, WATER WAS CONSTANTLY SOAPY, TRIED TO SPEND MORE MONEY TO RINSE OFF, BUT IT WAS NON-STOP SOAP. ALSO, A SUPER HOT DAY, SO THE SOAP DRIED TO MY CAR WHILE I FOUND ANOTHER WASH TO SCRUB IT OFF.

I would give negative stars if it was possible I paid for the one car wash stalled at work and there was no soap nothing coming out of the nozzle and I tried to stop it and continue to charge my credit card I went to the next doll and the credit card device was hanging off of the wall which makes me concerned that I might be a victim of fraud here soon like 1 of them credit card skimmers and went to another stall credit card machine didn't read didn't work they didn't accept my money their money changed machine was out of order

Bay two is not good. Credit card doesn’t work, only get soapy water. Couldn’t rinse the soap off vehicle. Spot free rinse didn’t work either. I enjoy manual car washes, but this one is really bad.

JUST DON'T. Would give negative stars if Google would let me. The photo of the phone number is a lie, that number is some weird "test call" number. I used the 2nd manual wash bay from the right. No clear water, only soap. Spent extraoney having to see if the dial was a bit off just trying to get clean water. It's more than "a bit off", it's totally jacked up. Some settings just spit mostly air. Had to use another bay to rinse, and another woman had to do the same because the automatic wash bay stopped in mid-wash and left soap all over her car.

I mean, I rinsed off my car for $3 but the only thing that came out was soapy water in the 2nd bay. Rinse, wax, and spot free rinse didn't work.

Dribbled water on my car and said it was complete. No way of getting a refund. Absolute joke!

Most of the manual washers don't work and won't refund your money. The automatic washers work fine though.

I hate to jump on the band wagon but bay two would not accept my credit card and bay one did not do a very good job cleaning my car, even on the top wash. It charges a dollar more the others and the wash was not near as clean as cheaper car washes. I did give it 2 stars because? It. ¿. Well? Ummm. ¿. Geez? I forgot what I was saying. I will not go there again!
