Customer Reviews
The credit card machine did not work. I got the $15 car wash and it did not have change and said see attendant but there's no attendant here. Edit: I found the phone number to contact someone. They were very accommodating and offered to send the balance to a cash app of which I don't have but instead gave me a code to use towards my next car wash there.
Don't bother going here. It's a complete waste of money. $15.00 to rinse my car with water is ridiculous. No soap, no wax, no pre soak. Oh no its on the dial. But you just don't get it. All you get is hi pressure water. If you want a decent car wash take the trip and go to sparkle. I thought I would just hit the car wash quick because it was close and what a mistake I made. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS CAR WASH IF YOU HAD SODA ALL OVER YOUR CAR EATING YOUR PAINT. YOU ARE BETTER OFF THROWING BUCKETS OFF WATER ON HIT. WORST CAR WASH I have been to. I'm sorry but this place is bad. It is obvious that the owners only want your money. They do not provide a service at all.
This carwash is a rip off as far as the self serve it used to be pretty reasonable. I recently went to use the vacuums and they are terrible the suction is set slow low I couldn’t vacuum all the floors and they weren’t that dirty. I had weather tech matts and took them out before I started it wasn’t that dirty 3/4 done and vacuum shutoff. I had to constantly go over the same spots. I wanted to power wash just the floor matts and they raised the price from $2.50 to $4.00. I use the carwash in Brodheadsville and pay the monthly membership literally go as many times as you want for $25.00 and they hand towel dry your car. Update 12/20/25 - so i went through the auto wash bay OMG water barely rinsed car 15$ and what a waste. Might have been because of cold weather that water was maybe part
2 bays are usually never working, brushes are super worn out, pre wash soap hardly ever comes out from nozzle, auto wash is okay, does the basic. Don't expect a super clean car.
This place is GARBAGE , all the equipment is broken or not working properly. I bought the basic bundle which give me 5 wash and dry for $40 , in my second visit the underbody blast and turbo dry didn’t work , leaving my car with ugly marks , at the same time trying to wash my mats the machine didn’t work after I put $3 in , I saw a car parked next to a door so I went and knocked, a man was there and I explained to him what happened, he was rude and gave me the $3 back and told me that he will let me go back in to the express wash for a second try , so I went to my car and pulled around back and I saw this guy , get in to his car and drive off , I waited for like 5 minutes realizing that he didn’t have any plan on coming back to let me in and wash my car . You can’t find any contact inf
