At the top of one of our laundry bags was a vintage rust-coloured suede jacket. As this laundromat also does dry cleaning, I had assumed that they would dry clean the jacket. I will own the fact that I should not have assumed and should have specified. When we went to pick up our laundry, the bill was $66.46. The owner told us that he was only charging us $60 because "a tiny bit of colour from the jacket got on a couple of items of clothing." I said that I was sure it was fine, paid the bill, retrieved my laundry and left. I wish more than anything that I had looked at my laundry before paying and leaving. When I got home and unpacked the laundry bags, we discovered that what had actually happened was that he had washed and dried the suede jacket in a conventional machine, completely destroying it. But what was even worse was that he had washed it in a load of white clothing and EVERYTHING was ruined. One large, full bag of clothing was all dyed pale orange with larger dark rust patches...roughly about $400 worth of items destroyed. The owner had, on one article of clothing, tried to get it off by using some kind of bleach cleaner so that sweatshirt now has a big bleach stain on the front of it as well as all of the rust coloured dye. As the laundromat was closed, my partner and I went back the next day to talk to him and to try and get our money back. My partner expressed that while a significant amount of clothing was ruined, all we wanted was our money back. The owner kept refusing, saying that it was not his fault and that we were to blame because we put the jacket in with the bag of laundry. Someone who owns a laundromat/dry cleaning service should know that a suede jacket, (particularly a vintage one), should not go in a washer and dryer. And regardless of his perceived mixup about how the jacket should be cleaned, he sure as hell should have known to not put a rust coloured item in with a white load. He had my name and number and could have called to clarify at any time. We did not get our money back and we are stuck with a pile of clothing that needs to be repurposed. He did not offer any compensation or take any responsibility whatsoever. The owner is a man of poor morals and business ethics and I cannot stress enough that you should AVOID THIS BUSINESS AT ALL COSTS. Or this owner's incompetence, as it did for us, could cost you greatly.

The place was pretty clean, especially having walked by and looked into Shorty's which I couldn't tell if they were still in business. Can't really comment on the price, as I didn't compare prices, but it seemed reasonable at the time (I can't really remember what it cost now). Weekends get a bit busy, as there are only 4 double load front loaders, 2 triple, and 1 quad load machine, plus a few top loaders. Parking was available for free in the back, and pretty easy to find out front too.

The driver who was delivering the pants was stuck in the traffic, as there was a collision on the highway and all the roads were extremely busy. The gentle man who owns the business, Anwar, waited after business hours only for us to get the pants on time. Both Anwar and the lady who work there are very kind, friendly and amicable. They made several phone calls both to us and the driver just to make sure that we receive our order on time. This was beyond my expectations. The pants were done nicely too and they were even pressed very nicely, and all of this was for a very reasonable price. I will go back for sure and would like to promote their business here because of their wonderful customer service. Highly recommended for people in Brentwood area.
