My apartment building has terrible laundry machines so was very happy to find Grand Ave Launderette…read morevia Yelp. I just purchased a linen quilt and new sheets for the summer and wanted to give them a good wash so took them to GAL. Stopped by Friday morning and was greeted with friendly smiles and help opening the door. The owners sorted through my items and gave me an estimated price. They also offered me a discount because it was my first time there. The owner wanted to make sure I understood that the linen quilt may be wrinkly, and I was like, "I hope so!" Ha! We also discussed pick-up time. They noted they could get the items to me later that day, but I told them I might have a meeting and asked if I could pick up the next morning. They were very accommodating. Upon pick-up, all of my items were ready and packaged beautifully. I was so happy to have a freshly laundered bed without the headache. A quick note: the hours on Yelp are their typical hours, but they've adjusted them during the pandemic. Friday, they were open 9 AM- 3 PM.

Hands down this is the best business I have been to in a long time. The family who owns and runs this company are incredibly kind and caring, and I am so thankful to be able to come to this place and trust that my child's clothes and bedding are cleaned with the utmost care; they even package his little clothes neatly in paper. Oh, the joy it brings me to spend my money here!! Side note: I got locked out of my car one day, and the family made sure I was able to contact AAA. The father even looked out for me until they came. This is exactly what our community needs. Thank you, Grand Ave Launderette Family!

I also really appreciate that they encourage sending the ties back with your next order so that they can be reused. I value the service as it gives me time to do other things.

I had been searching for a cleaners in Oakland, after having some pretty costly bills when going to…read moreMartinizing in Alameda. I came across Ideal Cleaners and read so many great reviews. The neon sign of the location really adds a nostalgic, classic appeal. I had one pair of vintage Levi's cleaned after having acquired them on the resale market, and had challenges with getting them cleaned and thoroughly deodorized; even after three wash cycles, an overnight distilled white vinegar soak, and a direct sunlight air dry. After all that didn't work, I decided to bring my denim to Ideal for a final attempt. I dropped off on Wednesday and asked for Friday pick-up which the owner said was possible. I called on Thursday to see if an earlier pick-up was possible, and provided my ticket number to which I got a call back after checking on my piece. I was told that Friday morning would allow for service completion- which was fine. I picked the denim up first thing on Friday morning, and the scent I was trying to get out is completely gone. The quick turn around, friendly service and supporting a local business, Ideal is a great choice. For my one pair of denim, I paid $8. This is more than reasonable. Great service, quick turn around and much better than other cleaners. I will be going to Ideal for my pieces, and am interested in having a cleaning done on bigger pieces I have. Suggesting for anyone looking for a good cleaner to try Ideal. To note, with current construction in downtown Oakland, getting there is tougher than usual. And for new customers, push the door hard, it felt like it wasn't unlocked when I first came in. ahah

The repairs were small corner repairs-a straight stitch, on 3 pocket chairs and reinforcing the name tags stitches. The corners got done but not the name tag area. For $30.00 I was expecting more. I've had quotes and when the work was done, most reduced the price because of the minor repairs, but not here. Now I know better.Lets see how long it last.
