    This used to be my favorite car wash that I went to consistently for over a year. After today, I will never return. I paid $60 for a hand wax and wash, interior and exterior. When I was given my keys, they turned out to be someone else's. I didn't realize until I was about 30 minutes into a 1 hour and 10 minute drive home. Because of their mistake, I had to turn around and drive 30 minutes back in worsening Friday traffic, just so another customer could get their keys and be able to drive home. That meant wasting gas, losing time, and then having to restart the entire 1 hour and 10 minute drive home again in the middle of Friday rush hour. When I returned, there was no direct apology, and the situation was handled with confusion at the register. On top of that, the interior of my windshield was poorly cleaned, with visible streaks and haze that became especially bad as the sun set. This is the main reason I had been coming here in the first place. The wash was refunded, but the combination of mishandled keys, wasted time and gas, lack of accountability, and poor workmanship is unacceptable. I will not be returning.

    honestly, even basic washes aren't this bad? I'm so sad. =(

    This is going to be a no for me. I always try to be very honest with my reviews and I just can't recommend a place that is so careless with their wash. It was ridiculously busy, but I wanted to give it a shot. My car only gets hand washed, and it didn't even feel like they tried. For perspective I paid for the entire interior + exterior and added wax, so it was not a basic package. I understand not getting the nooks and crannies, maybeeee, but why did they miss so many stains on my windows?? That's the easiest to clean. Sorry, not gonna go back here again.

    I have been coming to this hand wash business for about a year now, and when I first started coming here they did an amazing job on my car. Unfortunately, throughout my visits, the service has declined. I specifically choose this place because they advertise hand washes, and I have black paint that I try to take extra care of. This last visit on 5/26/26 will be my final one. I didn't notice the damage until I got home because I was on a business call and trusted that my car would be properly cleaned after the wash. I had bird droppings on my car from earlier that day and wanted to get them removed as soon as possible. When I got home, I noticed white scrape marks left on my paint. Thankfully, my partner had a wax product that removed most of the white residue, but the scratches are still visible. It's really disappointing considering I came here specifically to protect my paint, not damage it. If you come here, please make sure to fully inspect your car before leaving.

    Came here for my very first car wash ever. I was a little nervous because I've never done one and I didn't know the protocol. I drove up and got waved to park underneath an awning. The worker came up to my window and asked what package I wanted. There was a giant sign hung up with all of their services so it was fairly easy to decide. I ended up getting the luxury package. It came out to about 33 bucks. The worker gave me a ticket and said I could wait in their outdoor waiting area. They have hand shaped chairs and massage chairs. A good amount of seating was provided so no one there had to stand. You pay inside and they give you a receipt that you hand over once your car is finished being washed. The whole experience was probably around 30-40 min long. My car hadn't been washed in 5 months and I park outside on the street underneath a tree. Even with all of the grime stacked onto my car, they were able to make it look like it had just come off the lot! Really happy with their services! Next time, I'm going to pay the extra monies to get their deluxe package for interior cleaning as well. They did a light dusting (even though my package didn't include that) which I really appreciated! My only note is that I wish their calling system was a little different. You kinda just have to keep an eye on your car and once they're done, someone will wave a towel next to it and it's up to you to realize it's finished and head over. For the price, this place is amazing! I'm definitely coming back!!

    See all

I brought my car for wash and one of the mats had lollipop stuck in one corner and smoothie spill on the other corner. I asked during drop off if this could be taken off and the guy seemed nice and offered to try. In my opinion he should have said that he doesnt have the right tools or skillset to clean the mat rather than offering to try at the cost of damaging the mat? It turned out the mat got clean but the corners looked sanded/grinded and the rest of the mat has a design of some sort. I messaged the guy at pick up, who said the design will go away when dry - it didnt! Then upon drying, i took the mat to show him the design and sanded corners and he said it will go away with use - i dont believe it! It's hard to believe this business cause the goal post keeps moving. No amount of brushing the mat is making the pattern go away. The more concerning thing is that the owner completely disowned his business when i called him, he gave me a run around and then hung up on me. His employee made him call me back and he talked to me like he did me a favor by cleaning the mat?!!! His tone was offensive and rude and he obviously didnt take accountability of whatever happened to the mat. I would have liked the business to replace the mat THEY damaged or reimburse me for it. That would be the right way to handle an incident as such! The owner was in not apologetic of what happened, instead deflected what happened.
