Not terrible, not great. Laundromat has many machines, some always needed maintenance, others are just fine. Easy parking in the back.

They are in a BAD area, people walk in and TAKE clothes out of dryer !!!! Do not go to laundry wash & fold !!!!!

I came to do laundry. I only come because the one at my apt's are expensive and breaking. I came and knocked on the glass sliding door as I noticed piles of poop outside as I could smell it as well as in the actual garbage. I only have clothes I am washing so knocked for a bag or some help and was ignored. I kept checking my feet and clothes for poop until I realized it was literally all around the laundromat. read more

The dryers barely dry your clothes, you never know which ones will work. You constantly have to add coins to them or swap out your clothes to test your luck. The washers don't fully or throughly wash your clothes, you have be vigilant. Save your money. This place is completely neglected & deserted. Forget about refunds; there isn't even a phone number to call the owner for such instances. read more

Rainbow Laundromat - This is next to the change machine in the back. Not much help but it's all you can do... - Laundromat Near Me - Alameda, California

Nothing is labeled on the machines and they are really expensive I'd rather go across town to rags or anywhere else with these prices 6.25 a load and same with dryer read more

This place is a DUMP...!!! 17/31 washers BROKEN...!!! 12/28 dryers BROKEN...!!! No attendant, the tiniest sink with NO hot water and the faucet needs to be held down for water, no access to the bathroom on the side of the building. It's definitely over priced. There's no ventilation except to open the front and back doors. There's also no way to contact management or the owner for any issues. This is no way to run a business except to run it into the ground. read more

Just save yourself the wasted coins and go to another place. I'm in here today giving them another shot. But this will be the last time. About 7 of the dryers actually work. They start to work and then stop, so check often. There's nowhere to actually contact anyone about how bad all of the dryers are. The washers are fine but don't use the ones against the wall by the back exit. They just plain don't rinse. And the floor is constantly trashed. Just avoid this place. read more

You think the bonuses of having the place not far from where I live, being next to a restaurant, across from Dominio's, and near a convenient store would make this place more appealing to me. However the downsides are kinda of what loses it for me. 1. As many times as I've visited this place, I've never seen an attendant on duty there. Sad when something happens to the machine and you can't get any help. There are suppose to be slips to let them know that somethings wrong, but I didn't find any when the dry ate my money and did nothing. 2. I found them to be a bit too expensive for my taste and they don't tell you how many loads any of their machines can take so you can judge if it's worth the price. 3. The dryers have only three settings: high, low, and perm press. For anyone who has to do laundry on a medium setting, I think you're kind a screwed. I spent a while on the perm press setting, thinking that is the equivalent to medium setting, and eventually had to settle with slightly damp clothes. Prices are: regular machine: $1.75 to $2.50 medium: 3:50 large: $5.00 ex-large:$6.00 dryer: $0.25 for 7 minutes In the goal of having to save time and money, I was disappointed in only walking away with saving a little time. read more

Machines ate my money! Beware of janky washing machines that smell of mold and only accept quarters. Will not be back

Many of the machines are broken. They don't fix them. I saw some attendants there once and they mopped the floor with dirty water. One of the washers leaks water on the floor EVERY TIME. Machines eat coins. read more

Terrible place to do your laundry. Today: multiple dryers out of order, only marked by a piece of used dryer sheet tied to the coin return slot, which isn't really obvious until you fill the stupid thing with coins and then try to turn it on. Both quarter machines are also broken. There is a broken box that is meant for comment cards for mentioning broken machines and the need for refunds, but there are no cards or writing utensils available. There's also no phone number to call to get in touch with anyone who owns this travesty of a laundromat. Just don't. read more

First day here dryer didn't work yet no sign, wasting coins. Today the place flooded, water pouring out. Dangerous on the tiles. No phone for this business. Someone told me flooding happens they mop it but don't repair machines. They don't really care. read more

This place is a fraud. The machines take your coins and don't work. No way to contact a person for a refund. The place is disgustingly filthy. It seems like the owners died and nobody cares about the place other than to come and collect the money. I saw a request for refund card in their suggestion box that was dated May 2019. So no one from management/ownership has been there for 5 months? I'm telling you, the owners are dead and their greedy heirs are just keeping this place open to steal quarters. read more

We will never visit this place again. The only reason we went there was because our usual place was too busy and this was the next nearest Laundromat. 1. Dirty 2. The machines are more expensive and instead of telling you what the price is, it tells you the # of quarters you need. 3. The machines do not tell you how much time is left for the load. And if you don't read the symbols correctly, you might accidentally put your liquid laundry detergent in the wrong space, like the softener - so your clothes end up not rinsed all the way. 4. Many of the machines were out of order. 5. my BIGGEST complaint - the dryers simply take forever. We always split our loads up to cut drying time. Even splitting the loads into two and having small loads in the dryer, we were there for almost an hour and it just kept sucking quarter after quarter. They just don't get hot. 6. There is no sink - so when I got soap all over my hands, I had no way to wash it off and had to deal with sticky hands. 7. Only street parking. So if you have to park a block down, you have to hoof it up with your loads. read more

I don't even like to write yelp reviews but I've had so many bad experiences here, people need to be warned. 75% the dryers don't work and you don't find out until you've wasted your time and money just to find your clothes soaking wet half the time. Also most of the dryers have large holes in the metal which suck your clothes down into the hole or just rip them. It's rarely clean, my last visit there was a large puddle of dirty water in front of the the clothing folding tables. It's just straight up disgusting in there, save your money and go somewhere else. read more

This place is really bad. Half the washers do not work and expensive as hell. The older dryers has some nasty ass water puddles in them. Gross. read more
