This used to be my favorite laundromat, but not anymore. It has many good qualities but I have…read morerecently changed the pricing scheme for the dryers to be what I consider practically a scam. It used to be that a quarter would buy you several minutes, but they have changed the dryers to have a $1 minimum charge. What this means is that if your laundry is not quite dry after the first round of drying and you don't get to the dryer before the cycle ends, You are not able to put in a quarter to get a few extra minutes to get it dry. You are stuck with the $1 minimum charge. This is not just extremely annoying, It represents a pettiness on the part of the owner.... that they are trying to get 75 extra cents from a customer who only needs 25 cents more time. So, sadly, after many years of loyalty to this establishment I will be looking for a new laundromat.

I believe this laundromat must be under new management because the customer service has gone…read moredownhill. Several machines are either barely working or completely out of order. There is a large hole in the ceiling, and the dryers are no longer getting hot. Today was my last day patronizing this establishment. I brought my concerns to the attendant on duty, specifically that the dryers were not heating properly. Instead of addressing the issue, she was rude and dismissive and told me to continue putting my coins into the machine--which makes absolutely no sense when the dryer isn't working. Between the poor maintenance, unsafe conditions, and unprofessional customer service, this place is no longer worth the time or money. Highly do not recommend.

Unfortunately my washer broke and my husband and I needed to wash desperately just to last us until…read moreour new unit arrives! So we actually yelped the closest laundry mat and this one came up. So this place was clean and convenient. They have 15 machines I believe but a few of them were actually broken. They have 3 large washers for heavy duty items like comforters but unfortunately none of them worked. 1 was complete unplugged and the other 2 would not accept quarters when we tried to use it. The best past was the washers were fast and efficient but pricey! $4.00 for a light load. I'm not sure of the standard price but at my old on-site wash house it was only $1.75 so that's significantly more than what I'm used to. The dryers are $.25cent for 6 minutes. So it costs about $1.25 to get a good dry! Not too shabby! This place is overall a great place to do laundry. When we went it was completely empty! Also they have a few chairs, a folding table and they have a vending machine! I say if your close enough to try this place it's worth it.

All machines except the smallest take credit cards and phone. Change machine for the smallest is right next to the machines and new and always full. Laundry gets clean. Dryers don't burn clothes. Attendants are excellent. You can tell it's family owned and they care. Oh - side facing the sidewalk is all glass, so it's beautifully sunny, if we have sun. Easy parking, even on street cleaning days. Never crowded. They also have wash n fold. I've never used it. Based on how responsive the people here are and how neat and organized the finished laundry looks, I would bring my laundry here.

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!
