It's overpriced if you have a long time to wait you should go over there. If not go our other car washes. They do a similar job but lesson cost. read more

Great service! Friendly employees it is a little bit of a wait but it is well worth it. Prices are relatively cheap. Car battery died and they all helped out as well as the key battery. 5 stars read more

Once again trying to give this spot a chance but it only gets worse . Brought my suv here and they only have 3 workers . This is how my suv came out after being washed soap on both sides back of it . They said the machines don't work . So why even open the place if your equipment doesn't work and you only have 3 workers and to top it off they don't tell you anything when they charge you let alone the wait time to even get your car filled with soap . They turn off the machines in between cars . This place just needs to close down already! read more

They are Carwash scammers they have different types of carwash prices but everyone is still getting the same bucket carwash no wax or any other stuff you paid for the drive through is only to rinse your car something needs to be done read more

Took my car today 6/13/2026, I asked for a "Deluxe" Carwash. I don't know if they were under staff but I had two middle school kids working on my car. When the car was "done", I noticed the cup holders weren't even clean nor the dashboard. I did ask another employee to help me, he was genuinely polite and apologized for the unfinished service. read more

Terrible experience here. Owner has a terrible attitude and no customer service. Extremely disrespectful to his staff and customer. Attempted to address an issue and he didn't care said that's what I payed for and that's the work. I payed for deluxe car wash that includes tire and interior dressing. I elaborated that it was not completed. He apologized and went on to make derogatory remarks about Mexicans. SMH. I clearly told him that he should respect his workers as they show up for him. Seems that that remark only fueled him more. Terrible experience, I was dropping off another car so I told him to cancel the detail and refund me my money. read more

This is such a great deal. Was in desperate need of a car wash and since I'm an early bird, I got the special. Mondays and Tuesdays from 8-10am, basic wash is $8.99. $3 extra if you have an SUV. Didn't really expect much for that low of a price but they did a great job and didn't cut corners. Great value for the money and will definitely be back any time I'm in Downey visiting the parentals. Appreciate this deal considering everything nowadays is so expensive. Make sure to tip the guys working extra if you can! Times are tough and everyone needs all the help they can get. It's about supporting small businesses. read more

Papa John's Car Wash - Car Wash Near Me - Downey, California

Pros: not expensive and was relatively quick. Takes card as payment. All staff are really nice. Cons: scratches left on brand new car, first wash ever. Scratches were not there prior to bringing it in. Windows were left streaky on the inside (I had to re-clean them). Smudges also left on exterior. Called to speak to someone about it but no answer. read more

Do not go here your car will still be dirty and management will not address any issues you have. The workers blame the managers and the managers blame the workers. My car was not rinsed properly the inside was no vacuumed thoroughly. They were suppose apply dressing on my steel bumpers and fenders and did a poor job and got the body of my car dirty from the residue. I had to wipe my own car down and dress my own bumpers and fenders. I still tipped but I advise you not to go here it will just make you angry and irritated. read more

Horrible service and attitude from the owner all the way down to the staff. This is the third time I've attempted to wash my car here and they always find a way to make sure to provide the lowest level of service possible. If you complain, they will mention that there is no manager on site and that there is nothing they can do. I spoke to the owner directly who went out of his way to not show any interest in the reason for my call or how to avoid the problem from happening again. Stay away at all cost!!!!!! read more

If I can put zero stars I would , terrible owner doesn't take responsibility for loosing my car key , stayed for hours looking for the car key and he left saying it wasn't his responsibility . Didn't even correctly detail the car either. read more

I can see how frustrating that can be, but they explain once I get there to make sure I have time to wait. The service was great & I will be coming here from now on.

Went there for a car wash with my truck paid the deluxe Car Wash waited one hour and a half. The windows were still dirty. Had water spots the next day as I started noticing the truck was still dirty. The interior wasn't vacuum right I would not recommend this place to nobody. I brought it back the next day and they still didn't get it right horrible service. read more

One Star but wish I could give them ZERO Stars . I paid $36 to get a "Good Cleaning " to my truck and after a waiting time of an hour (with only 3 cars ahead) my truck was "Ready " . They didn't clean the inside of the car, service was awful and unwelcoming. it's embarrassing that they even call themselves a business read more

Don't take your car to this place. Unfortunately they still do a horrible job. They don't clean your car right and don't vacuum the car mats properly. They don't even add air fresheners. I regret giving a tip to the guy who clean my car. Lesson learned. read more

Broke my side view passenger once, scratched rims twice, somehow don't understand the purpose of a window and cannot vacuum. They will take pics of your car and post on social media and that's fine. What's not ok, if you take pics of them. Please read the law. Public is public. I will not be going again and do not advise going forward. Be gracious I do not place names. read more

Literally horrible Numerous of times where they don't even vacuum everything good . They literally leave the trash there, seats all dirty, waste of money read more

Really good carwash nice people really clean and nice left my car really clean I recommend

Wish I would have yelped this place beforehand First and last time I will ever have my car washed here. Unless you have over an hour and a half to kill for only 3 cars in front of me is dumbfounding. The girl that's supposed to be at the register is vacuuming cars and I waited 20 minutes just to pay. I won't blame the workers because they can only do what they can with the shortage of workers, but still the customers shouldn't be paying the price for that . The car wash wasn't even all that could have done a better job myself at a drive through car wash . read more

Hands down best car wash ever , they go in and grab all the angles in your car ! Great service & nice staff i LOVE IT

This place is terrible. We were waiting an hour until another customer came and told us that they had locked the keys in our car. The workers didn't even have the decency to tell us that the keys were locked in the car. When I told them I had an urgent appt and had to leave to just refund me my money the manager said No. this place has terrible customer service. read more

Abandon ship!!!!!!! I've tried to give them a chance. Used to be so good. I don't know what happened. But it's just declined so much. Won't be back. Trash trash trash of a car wash. I wont be coming back. Dropped off car today 11/20/22. Went for breakfast. Came back. Looked good at a glance. Got home just to realize the crappy job. Mind you the prices have just like everything else have gone up more and more. But the service is really just trash now and for me had gotten worst each chance I give them. I practically have to wash my car myself after pay $24 plus tip! This is ridiculous! I might as well drive there hand them $25 and leave. That's pretty much how the end result looks now. Won't be back. Honestly Costco car wash for $7.99 gives you much better results. If I had more than two thumbs, they would be down. Head for the hills!!!! read more

Hire more people. Came early Friday on my day off. Never again.......it took them 1-1/2 hours to just simply wash my truck.......

Understanding and good customer service. I love the way they left my truck, very clean

Amazing results! The inside of my car got drenched in rain water and was really happy they could take the smell out at an affordable price. Thank you to Ahmad who left me with a shiny, clean, good smelling car. Highly recommend! read more

They are so short handed that it took 1 1/2 hours to get out of there. With being short handed they take short cuts and do really a terrible job! I was short on time so went there because it was the closest and should have known to just leave when it to 1/2 hour just to get the car checked in. but hung in there thinking it was faster than driving to another car wash. I should have left. took all that time and cost $30 after tip and once I started to look things over realized it was not a quality car wash. anyway, maybe it was just a bad day for them. Because it can't be a successful business the way it was run the day I was there! read more

They are so slow now and have hardly any staff. They don't even clean the cars thoroughly anymore .

On 6-3-25 they damaged the seat adjuster in boyfriends F150. The car wash guy handed him the knob and my boyfriend thought the knob just popped off. He went to put it on and the plate that holds the knob was broken in three pieces two were on the driver seat. He brought it to their attention and the manager who referred him to a gentleman named Alex. Alex said he had to review the tape. I went in there the next day with the estimate and the manager told me "Your boyfriend had a janky ass truck and to get my Janky ass out of there that they weren't paying for nothing" I told him I had becoming here Since Pina and Papa John had owned then the Barkers. He said I've never seen you before. I reminded him I am the lady that your porter totaled my car in 2019 . She accidentally ran my car into the tanker trap and the car wash sign. I was not looking for a payday then nor am I looking for one now! .Just wanted what was broken fixed. He called me about every name in the book. Still cannot believe his actions! I am a business owner in Downey and would never treat a customer like this. So if you looking to have you car wash and they break something they will curse you out, won't pay for what they broke and tell you what a crappy car you have. But it was good enough for them to wash and take your money. By the way they didn't do a good job on truck either. It is not that they totaled my Expedition or broke seat adjuster it the way I was treated and swore at. read more

I paid $50 to get a bad basic service the service came with carpet cleaning, car freshener, interior dressings, which was false advertising I don't recommend this place and they only steal you money and tell you the car is already clean they denied to clean underneath the passenger seat and and back seat I even tip the man after him telling me the cars "clean " just stay away from this place read more

Papa John's Car Wash - Did not clean when I paid for the service to clean the carpet - Car Wash Near Me - Downey, California

Don't go there. 1 hour from vacuum to exit the carwash. Probably another 30-40 minutes to finish. They have no staff working.

Paid for Silver Service. Back seat and carpet were not vacuumed and neither was the back area of my car. Windows were very smeared when I left. I need to rewash them, hat window and side back windows were not touched. White tissue shows dirt from a quick small swipe inside hatch window. Spider web still on side mirror where it was not washed or wiped. So after paying to have car vacuumed and windows washed, I still need to vacuum and wash windows and what the mirror housings to get rid of spider webs. So I paid higher price for a quick washed and partial dry. If you go here stick to the 8.99 price. You get the same service only a lot cheaper. read more

Hello, I went here for the first time on Saturday morning. I read the reviews and they didn't have great ones but because it was recommended I decided to give it a shot. When I picked up my car, there was a cluster of chips in my windshield. And then sporadic ones throughout which were not there when I arrived. When I had informed them of this issue, they said, are you sure you didn't come in with all of these chips on your windshield and I said I definitely did not. They took my information and got never back to me. While they were getting my information one of the guys who worked at the car wash said and I quote " well sometimes this happens with the pressure washer and the heat of the car." My windshield wasn't cracked , just 15-20 chips .-. And my car was parked in the garage and the drive to the car wash was all about five minutes where I then parked in the shade under the vacuums. So heat wasn't what took chips out of my windshield.. Either way, trust the reviews for this place. They didn't offer me anything or any way to fix the issue... 10 out of 10. Don't recommend this place I tried to take pictures of the chips, but unless you're sitting in my car, you can't see them. Or looking directly at the windshield from the outside My car is only a year old and i take care of it so I definitely would notice if my windshield was chipped in multiple different places. read more

NO! This place is unbelievable!!! First of all, not enough employees to run the business. There's no onsite manager. The business owner is rarely here, and when he or his family member are here, they act like careless people. You're probably thinking what does this have to do with washing your vehicle for $19.99? Or more? Well, PEOPLE COME FIRST. That includes the workers!!!! They work hard to provide service but are they getting paid correctly and legally? Frustrated employees have walked off the job!!! Customers drive away because of waiting longer than usual to have their vehicle washed! I was the second car in line, yet, my vehicle is STILL in line! ** It appears this could be a matter for the Labor Board to investigate!! read more

Just had the worst experience with this car wash. They broke my car door mirror. When I complained about it to the owner and the rest of the crew did not want to take responsibility. Take your money elsewhere, not worth the damage done to my vehicle. read more
