The large washers are around $7.25 per load, and the small ones were around $3.25. Dryers are only $1.00 (if you wash your clothes there), but unfortunately the coin dispenser was broken so you'll have to provide those on your own. Personally I was looking for either a cheaper wash or somewhere that you could pay with a card, so I'm marking it down a bit. Again, perhaps these are standard for the area, I don't know (but in that case I think I'd also rate the standard with three stars lol).

It's a pretty spacious design with several washers and dryers of different sizes and relatively clean space, also not too busy for a Sunday morning. Could definitely use clearer instructions though, especially for how to dry beyond 10 minutes --we luckily figured it out but it might be frustrating for first timers. Also major tip: it's cash only for the card which we didn't know ahead of time and there was no-one from management on site to help. We are incredibly grateful to Yafa for generously spotting us with enough so my friend could get everything done before having to catch her flight. When we tried to pay them back--they gifted her some fresh bread instead! Doing laundry never felt so heart warming and we left feeling that this laundromat's best feature is proximity to a place that believes that kindness is just as nourishing as the food that they serve.

When I returned to show them the damage, there was no apology, no accountability, and no attempt to offer compensation. I had to request a refund myself. The employee handed it to me and simply walked away without even acknowledging the inconvenience. This place used to be excellent before the ownership change. Now it's an absolute mess. Please do not trust them with valuable clothing, especially anything sentimental like a wedding dress.

A high end laundromat this is not, but if you've got one (or five) loads of laundry to get done…read moreit's a great place. There were only 2 machines out of order, which was impressive considering how many machines there were. There are a variety of washers that vary in price based on their capacity: $2/load, $2.25, $3, $4, $4.50. I like that there are different machines to choose from based on your needs and you don't have to spend extra money for capacity you're not using. For the dryers (which are all the same) the prices aren't posted, but they are as follows: $1.00 for the first 20 minutes, $0.25 for every additional 7 minutes. That seems a little pricey to me, but I've been out of the laundromat loop for a few years now so perhaps that's average these days. As for the place itself, it was very clean and well lit. There were tons of magazines to read, a pop machine to quench your thirst with Pepsi products, and lots of counter space for folding. The change machine was broken when I was there, but there was a sign instructing you to visit the liquor store a few doors down for change. The guy in the liquor store was very nice and didn't bat an eye at my asking for $3 in quarters. The broken change machine was maybe a little inconvenient, but it was a nice day so I didn't care. The guy who runs the place is a funny, friendly Greek man. He was very helpful with one of my washers, which turned out to be a little fussy. But everything worked in the end, and I walked out with 3 sets of clean sheets and 2 clean blankets. The best part of all of this is that Gold Star is a 30 second walk from my apartment. Hurray convenience! Summer Hours: 7am-10:30pm Winter Hours: 8am-10pm Last Wash: 9pm Door Locks @ 9:30pm $0.50 off computer (digital display) washers Tues-Sat from 7am-5pm!

I want to marry the woman on the sign. 3) Reaping the spoils of previous launderer's leavings--my best find so far is a pair of SpongeBob SquarePants boxers. 2) Finally found a setting where my Dewar's flask is socially acceptable. 1) In the event of equipment malfunction and subsequent gruesome injuries, Gold Star is conveniently located across from Somerville Hospital.

You want the…read morereassurance that you're in the care of an expert who will apply the media without having the end result resemble that of bubble packaging. More over, you want the confidence you're receiving the highest quality product possible. In light of those traits, Travis delivers on all fronts. Once comprised of a whole team, Travis is currently the sole vendor for Monkey Wraps. How I discovered him was....a long time in the making, actually. See, the quest for upgraded auto-aesthetics originally started way back in 2023. At the time, I was looking to do a total wrap. The price was more than fair for what I was seeking, but it would take some doing saving up the amount needed. So, I sat on the idea for a few years. And then I got an epiphany...from ChatGPT of all places. After some deliberating and image rendering with the bot, I thought to myself, "Self, what if, instead of getting a total wrap, we got highlights? It'd be both cheaper AND quicker." And so it was. With a few adjustments to the shade of green I wanted, I settled on a Gloss Green Envy; which proved to be absolutely perfect for highlight colors. Had it been a total wrap, I'd have gone with more of a dark forest green. But, I digress. In any case, I couldn't really justify putting a total wrap into a depreciating asset. Clearly, this was the better choice. I didn't come up with the idea of applying color to the base rockers until after the first set of media had been ordered (I'm so dumb sometimes). But, no matter. Each job, having been done on two separate visits, took approximately a day with overnight curing. And for those who were curious, a total wrap would have taken 5-7 days. So, yeah...this was better. It took me a while to finally write this review because I needed to bide out the 2 week recommended waiting time for curing to complete before washing my car so that I could take pictures. Needless to say, it was worth the wait. All in all, not a bad way to spend $1.3k if I do say so myself. It was certainly worth the 45 minute drive. And for those wondering why I didn't just go someplace closer like Lifesize Wraps in Manch Vegas, it's mainly due to 3 things.. 1.) They only had like 2 reviews at the time of this one. Whereas Travis' portfolio is immaculate and massive! 2.) I honestly didn't know they existed till after already booking with MW. 3.) I kept thinking about that original quote I got from him years ago. I guess it all just boils down to loyalty. Yeah, the place is hard as $#!@ to find the first time. But there are MW signs pointing you the direction to go if you know to look for them. You'll know you're in the right place once you reach a warehouse looking building with the #11 above and you're standing before a door with an 8 on it. There's even a Ring doorbell so you can communicate with Travis if he's not physically there. He accepts contactless digital payment (of course) and typically requires an initial deposit to get started; usually in the ballpark of $100 or so. Honestly, I can't say enough great things about Travis and his amazing talents! So, I'm just gonna wrap this up here (get it? XD) and give Monkey Wraps 5 shiny new Bimmers with Glossy Green highlights beaming down the highway out of 5.
