Usually the first guy will pre soak your rims and tires prior to you entering the wash. This did not happen. After going through the wash, I wasn't impressed by the number of dirt streaks, soap suds, and general missed areas. I borrowed a towel to complete it myself. I've been to a few brown bears over the years and some are very good. I can't say this about todays visit. Back to hand washing it myself.

This service is a complete joke…read more I got my car detailed by Chad, last year and he did a piss poor job. It also took forever for them to correct the mistake because their policy was that I can only take the car back to the person who messed up the service to have it fixed. Chad was booked out for weeks so I had to wait for them to fit me in the schedule. I'm just now leaving a review because it was my first time getting my car detailed at the time and I didn't know any better. I didn't know what it meant (they basically shampoo your car) or how much it should cost at the time. Looking back, I feel like I got completely scammed. I now have more experience with other car detailers like WashLB (mobile detailer in Seattle) and two other car washes in LA (I moved) to say this Mr. Detail location in the Fairmont garage is a complete joke. I only paid for an interior detail because I go to the Costco Car wash for $8 to get the outside cleaned. I only booked for interior and it STILL cost me something stupid like $235 for a Tesla Model 3. I think there was a pet hair add on. They ask you to add tip before you pick up the car so I tipped $45, like a dummy, only to drive away with a still dirty car. They work out of a dimly lit garage with barely any light so they probably cannot see all the dirt. When I drove my car into the sun, all the dust and stuff they missed were immediately apparent. It was a waste of time and money because each time I dropped the car off I had to Uber or walk home! I was out my car for 3 hours each time while I waited. Later I hired WashLB who came to my apartment's garage and would wipe down my car with a bucket of water and rags I guess and vacuums. They also did not have strong sun light to show all the dirt but they did a good job for only $77 (before tip) for both interior and exterior. I didn't have to go anywhere, they came to my garage. Moving to LA, the detail places here are also $70-$150 for both interior and exterior. All these cheaper places did a much better job and didn't make me wait 2+ weeks to bring the car back to get their mistake fixed. This business is totally absurd, a waste of time and money. Please look at the photos and see for yourself.

**Update** 10/4/25 Thank you Ben for replying to my review…read more It's always nice to see Business Owners reach out for more feedback. The only reason I didn't give 5 Stars was my side mirrors dripped water as most do when washed. I pointed it out to the tech drying my car and he said, "Yes- they always do that" which was fine as he is correct. However, at Porsche Bellevue, this does not happen when they wash my vehicle. I'm not sure if they use an air blower or compressor to prevent this but it's a very nice addition. By the time I left Eco Car Cafe and got home, I had water spots on both front doors that I had to wipe clean again. Not a huge deal since this is what I have to do after leaving every car wash except Porsche Bellevue, but hence the 4 stars. Hope this is helpful!

Being a drive-through type, it is not as thorough as one would hope. But for $8, it is a bargain! We will gladly have a carwash when we are in the area. The hours are slightly different than both the store and the gas station. Do double check before going. The cost can be pre-paid when getting gas or pay via the mini dedicated payment machine before entering the car wash. At least one person stays at the entry point to remind folks to put the car into neutral. All in all, it was easy, inexpensive, and did a perfectly good job on a dirty car. Thanks, Costco!

He is surprisingly knowledgeable, intelligent, respectful, polite, well brought up and an excellent communicator. Unless your car is well-maintained it probably needs more than what all the detail shops show as a base price. No detail shop can give you an accurate price until they actually see your particular cars condition. So call ahead and set up a drive-by appointment. I brought in my well-kept sedan for an exterior detail quote and received a reasonable price for what will be outstanding work. Also simultaneously my friend dropped off her 34-year-old sports car convertible Collectible for a presale beautification inside and out. Orveen was able to spot all the spots and things a buyer would see. He returned a good price for great work that Mr. Detail decade plus reputation proves. Beautiful Work in Beautiful Ballard.

I love that they are open 24 hours and it is all automated, with credit cards accepted at the kiosk. I always go early in the morning and there is never any wait. I like not having to deal with employees or any upsell. It's easy for me to drive in and out without assistance. It is completed relatively fast and has drying at the end. I hadn't been in a minute and went again recently and found that the prices were much higher. I think this will keep me from returning in the future. I understand that prices are increasing everywhere, but I really think a car wash should be more affordable. If my car came out perfectly clean I guess I would be okay with it, but even the cheapest option is not very reasonable. Because this is automated my car only comes out slightly cleaner than when it went in, I get that a car wash machine can only do so much, but for the price now I would really want it cleaner or I will just have to wash it again really soon. I think I will explore other options, but this is still a good option in a pinch.
