I visited Calvin's Cleaners out of convenience--location, location, location, right? They had one…read morestar on Yelp...from 7 years ago. They have two (more current) five star reviews, both short and disqualified by Yelp's AI. The one star review was a little confusing, mentioning a drop-off in Athens and a pickup in Ardmore, yet this location isn't really Athens (technically by mail delivery perhaps). Maybe they moved? I decided to give them a shot. Besides, seven years is a long time for a legitimate one star business to survive. Nestled at the corner of Capshaw and East Limestone Road, the sign on the door says "Same Day Service." That concerned me a little because this time I was actually proactive (for a change) and not in a rush. I didn't want to pay more for same day service when I didn't need it. Not a problem, though--their default service is a 48-hour turn around. I dropped off on Monday and was told with confidence that I could pickup Wednesday afternoon. That works for me as long as the dry cleaning time doesn't turn out days late like many Amazon deliveries :). I dropped off a suit, shirt, and additional sports coat for cleaning. Starch on the shirt for crisp creases that stay. They gave me two pickup tickets (one for the suit--my son's) and one for the sports coat (mine). Very observant of them! Friday visit--I wasn't notified that my stuff was ready for pickup, but it had been ready as promised. Small-town, the lady remembered me. I had my tickets, but didn't really need them to pickup my stuff. The suit, shirt, and coat was $22. They did a fantastic job on all articles. I'm a happy customer. I am giving Calvin's Cleaners five stars because 1) I like to shop local/home town, 2) they did a fantastic job, 3) very convenient location, 4) decent price, 5) good customer service, and 6) somebody needed to start the process of making right on the travesty of a one star Yelp rating. Calvin's Cleaners has my dry cleaning business from this point forward.

I just took it out of its wrapping since the weather has cooled. I'm not sure what happened, but the sweater is ruined. It's been shrunk and damaged. I'll never be able to wear it in public again. I haven't called to complain because frankly there is nothing they could do to make this right. The least they could have done was to tell me that it had been damaged, but they just gave it back to me wrapped in plastic on a hanger as if nothing had happened to it. They could have returned it to me without having cleaned it and said that they did not know how to do this properly. I had this sweater for 25+ years. It was one of my favorite pieces of clothing associated with many happy memories. Perhaps it's shallow to be heartbroken over a piece of clothing, but I am really hurt. Be warned.

A few times, I saw her son playing with the card machine, pushing buttons and trying to stick paper in the card slot. This place used to be a really nice laundromat ; it was clean, the attendant was good, and the machines were almost always working. The last two times I've been here half of the machines weren't working. I had to move a load of wet clothes twice from two different dryers that were not marked out of order but still did not work. I will give this place one more chance, but if things have not improved, Ill go somewhere else.
