    Only 2 staff workers working but they did a very good job washing my car and cleaning inside.

    The first time I went to this location, they did an awesome job! I was quoted over the phone and their work was highly appreciated. This time, I was haggled into a higher price without a job worth it! They left my floor mats wet, parts of my car untouched, scratched my car and left a scuff mark. BEWARE! I don't mind paying for great service, but I will not waste my money on this business again.

    Looked promising, but eye spy with my little eye a shop brush for scrubbing, and poor quality washing supplies

    Gas Station Quality Wash. If you care for your car's paint, skip this place and take it elsewhere. Charged $85 for hand wash and it looked like my blind 80yr old uncle washed the car. Disappointing, and sadly its not even an establishment I can get frustrated with because they don't look like they can make it things right. This place will most likely be out of business soon, what a scam. ***no concessions or refreshments available at this location***

    Really wanted to like this place since it's in my neighborhood but unfortunately I won't be returning. Got me in quickly, guys were friendly, didn't take long and I can see why. 1. They use a brush and in a circular motion, most of the better hand wash places have converted to wool mitts or micro fiber towels to remove dirt instead of just moving around a brush which causes swirls. 2. After driving home (.5 miles) I looked at my car closer. I had streaks all over the car, so I had to pull out my own towels, quick detailer and pretty much do the whole car over. 3. The wheels.. don't even know where to begin. My wheels are ceramic coated so they're incredibly easy to clean. The lips were still dirty, the spokes looked as if they weren't touched. I thought maybe they just missed one but they were all very dirty (photo attached). They did a great job on the interior, wish they did the same on the exterior. I should've looked the car over before leaving but there were people there and I didn't want to hold up the line.

    No attention to detail. My brake calipers were still dirty. If you know how to clean a car it shows. An these guys don't.

    Pretty sure it's closed now. Drove the block twice and found a sign but no resemblance of a car wash.

    Good service! I had the basic package done and they did a great job on the inside cleaning and vacuuming. Definitely coming back!

    Came on a Saturday afternoon and to my surprise, was not busy in the car wash line at all! I got a…read moresuper shine wash for $21 and while it cleaned my very dirty car, there were some significant spots left behind. The process was really smooth and easy, but for $21 I was hoping for a bit more shine! I will definitely return though since it's so convenient, the workers are really nice, & it's located close to me.

    I've been coming to this location for years with both my car and my wife's, and usually things run…read moresmoothly. But during my most recent visit, I arrived about 15 minutes before closing after a long road trip, only to have the vacuums shut off exactly at 8 PM and the nearby canisters dump their contents into the dumpsters. The sudden cloud of dust covered the front of my freshly washed car, undoing all the work I had just put in. I hadn't even started vacuuming yet, and the staff didn't seem interested in addressing the situation beyond repeating their closing script. It was disappointing because in the past, arriving shortly before closing was never an issue, and the vacuums stayed on long enough to finish the job. This time, the experience felt rushed and dismissive, which isn't what I expect from a place I visit regularly. They actively made my car dirtier, and now I have to carve out more time on a different day to finish what should've been a simple wash.

The employees at Stars & Stripes Carwash and Detail overpromised how long it would take to do the job. I arrived at 9:45 AM for my 10 AM appointment. I left at 4:25 PM, hours after the promised completion time. At about 3:30 PM I finally asked how much longer would it take to complete the job. An employee told me the job was almost complete, the only thing left was the windows. "Almost complete" ended up being nearly one hour later. I am an elderly man with certain health conditions. The high temperature that afternoon was 90 degrees. The waiting area is outdoors, not the best place for me on a very hot day with a very long wait for completion. I was not provided with any progress updates. I was not informed of any delays. If the employees had provided me with an accurate estimate of the duration of the job, I would not have waited at the carwash. I would have grabbed an Uber home and waited to be called when the job was completed. I am very disappointed in the way I was treated.
