We took my fiance's tux here, which was his grandpa's to be altered for our wedding and I think all she did was move a button. We wanted the pants shortened and taken in and the jacket brought in. She shortened the pants but didn't bring them in at all. And nothing was done to the jacket. I had to pick it up since he was working so he didn't get to try it on before I paid $40 for work that wasn't even done. Are there any good alteration places in this town?! This lady was recommended to us by a tuxedo rental place. read more

I went to Alterations by Ursula as she was recommended by the House of Tux. I called Ursula prior to coming in and asked her if she would be able to hem up my daughters prom dress that I needed in 2 weeks, she said she would be able to. So I brought my daughters prom dress in to have it hemmed up. My daughter came and was fitted for the dress by Ursula, she gave me a price, and agreed to have the dress done in 2 weeks, I agreed with this and left the dress with her. After 3 days Ursula called me and stated that she would not be able to do the alterations that she would not be able to finish the dress in 2 weeks that she had too many dresses and clothes that she is working on. The alterations that I needed was time sensitive, as I needed it in 2 weeks. So I thought it was inconsiderate of her that she did not tell me this when we came in and fitted for the alterations. I told her that it would of been nice and courtesy if she would of told us this the first day that we bought the dress in as I could of found someone else sooner to do the alterations. She stated that "I had to think about it". What is there to think about, either you can alter a dress or not?, why make an agreement and then back out on it. I think that is very unprofessional business ethics. I would not go to this business if you want someone that is trustworthy and will do what they say. read more

A little about me I'm a black trans woman who washes here because it's up the road from my house. I came in today b4 lunch and put my clothes in the washer and I'm in online classes so I went home to go to class I come back after a math exam at 6pm to dry my clothes and I'm med with outrage and her with a bodyguard to tell me I can no longer wash at her establishment and belittle me like I'm her child talking at me n demanding a answer from me. I'm a responsible and respectful person but I almost lost myself at how I was treated so I walked out but I don't recommend anyone to wash here if ur trans or black

They kept following us around (even to our vehicle) and interrupting our conversations. It's like helicopter parents but worse. My husband & I didn't immediately switch our clothes over. They were in the washer for no more than 20 minutes. The owners crapped their pants about it. My husband had his earbuds in to avoid the clingy employees, but instead heard them talking badly about us because we didn't immediately move our clothes. The rough looking older female said we are taking advantage of good people. She yelled the F word ten minutes later because something wasn't working correctly. This place makes us very uncomfortable.

DO NOT DO YOUR LAUNDRY AT THIS ESTABLISHMENT!…read more The owner refuses to make right machines that go wrong. Did my laundry on 5/31/21 at this place. Paid for 3 washers, all of which started after I put the money in. I live around the corner, so went home to wait out the wash cycle. Returned to find one of the washers had reset and didn't do a complete wash. Just flashing it needed $6.75 again to run. I informed the owner of the problem, and she said,"These are new machines. When you push start they work." Mind you, I'm standing here with another $10.00 for dryers and have two other completed cycles. I ask her what can she do to make the situation right? She says,"There's nothing I can do." My son asks her where the money would have gone since we put $6.75 in. She says,"It's in here." Points at the locked change catcher. Then she states,"There's nothing I can do. These machines work." I don't know if she was essentially accusing us of trying to rip her off, which makes no sense since we had two other more expensive wash loads completed? But, her refusal to at least get us into a new machine to complete our laundry is horrible. We didn't want a refund. We just wanted to do that last load of laundry. So, since she refused to do anything about it and acted like she couldn't do anything to fix the situation, which is ridiculous, we packed up our unwashed and wet laundry and went to a better laundromat down the street. Not only is 28th Street 24/7 Coin Laundry a BETTER laundry facility, they cost less, AND you can pay with the Dexter Pay app so you don't need to mess with quarters. Way better service there by far and if you go after midnight, they have half-price wash and dry!! Lucky Bubbles IS TRASH!! Do not go here unless you want to get ripped off.

Tried this place over the one on Pass and Courthouse because its a bit closer and in trying to get back to catch the end of the Bronco game. Well it's clean in here and the washers a a whole quarter less BUT- old machines not new like the other place and their 'free wifi' well forget trying to hook up to that lousy connection. Almost ready to dry. Hope the dryer is decent because the other one only needs a buck to dry. Will update if the dryers suck otherwise this place is fine. It is what it is and a girl with no washer and dryer is pretty happy to have somewhere to wash her scrubs lol.

I have taken several different types of clothing to Ursula to get fixed, hemmed, re-sized, you name it. She has always been very honest with the options and has always gotten things done for me in a timely manner. She is not very expensive and I have yet to complain about the results. read more
