"It's small and dirty but apparently the only place to go within 40 miles. One tiny machine required $5.75 for one load and another which was the same size took $6.25. The machine that cost $6.25 took half my quarters, then stopped taking any quarters and would not return the quarters I put in. I called the phone number listed and the person working was at the grocery store. She said she'd be right over. In the meantime, I was able to force the machine to return 3 quarters so I was able to continue to add (different) quarters and that seemed to work. The employee came and was very nice. Several of the machines were out of order and most were being used so I was only able to do two loads and waited for another machine to become available."

"Needed to wash some clothes after a week of muddy hiking around the peninsula. Came on a weekday around 9:30. It was busy at that hour but there was still a machine available. $6 to wash, maybe a little expensive? but it took about 25 min and did a perfectly good job. We wanted to wash in cold water and unlike some places where the cold isn't actually cold, the washer actually used cold water. The dryer experience was where they lost a star. It says you need to put in $1 to get it started, but ours started after 1 quarter, but would only give us 4 min regardless of the number of quarters we put in (we put in 6) so after 4 min, we put in another quarter, and it started again but this time it gave us 28 min. After that, it kept giving us 4 min for 1 quarter so we just dried everything in 4 min increments. Annoying, but we didn't want to change machines because we selected "low heat" and it actually used low heat so we went with the devil we knew... One thing to note is that both machines were finicky in accepting quarters (not all of them would get accepted so we had to use the coin return button a bunch of times and try again - bring extra quarters in case a couple of your quarters don't get accepted). We didn't use the change machine but others did and it worked. There's no attendant and no bathroom, but there is a table and a couple of chairs. All in all, if you find you don't have anymore clean clothes to sacrifice to the Peninsula mud, this is a perfectly fine place to clean them up."

"A very busy laundry. Machines are a bit expensive but when you need to wash clothes what are you going to do? Attendant was very helpful with jammed quarters in machine."

"A pretty rough little laundromat. Surprisingly really busy. About half the washers were out of order so there was a lot of waiting. Washers were $5.25, which is a little steep for there still to be soap suds when the cycle was done. The dryers were super efficient. The whole place needs a good scrub down. They also had no attendant on duty"

"Wash is 4.50 a load, if you can get the washer to start, unfortunately we wasted 4.50 as the door on the washer did not work. Tried to call the phone # for the laundromat and it is disconnected. No attendant present and no one answers the bell for the fluff and fold office. Someone came in, refunded our money and was quite nice. So all is good, they do have double load machines which is a plus"
