    Did anyone ever see that movie "Elephant Walk" with Elizabeth Taylor? It's like that..
    Jennifer O.

    #13/2016 With 15 Maytag high efficiency washers and 7 Dexter big-load machines (one seemingly big enough to launder a sofa), The Hayes Laundromat is a solid neighborhood spot when you have to get a lot of laundry done fast- or in my case, launder heavy items like goose down duvets and coverlets that need high capacity washers and very hot industrial dryers to be cleaned and dried properly. The machines are spotless and judging from the empty clang once you deposit your quarters (note to would-be thieves) coins are emptied out regularly. A narrow space that gets steamy once a few dryers are going, The Hayes Laundry would feel cramped, fast, if you were doing laundry in prime time. I got lucky with (unmetered) street parking so I didn't have to haul stuff very far. Not experienced with high efficiency washers, I got frustrated watching a load with one minute to finish tumble dry, then stand still, then tumble dry again and again for 15 minutes, aargh! Clean washers & dryers, average price, they also have a change machine that dispenses tokens good for use only at The Hayes. I recommend.

    The have change machines for 1, 5, 10, & 20 dollar bills and 75c 1 load boxes of detergent.

    This place is PERFECT. It's immaculately clean, it hasn't been busy, and there are 75c one-load detergent boxes. Also - change machines for $1,5,10 & 20 bills. And there is an ATM. MY laundromat for sure.

    The dryer powered off with $5 and wet laundry. Lame.

    As far as laundromat a go, it's okay. Three main problems: 1) The dryer powered off in the middle of a run and ate $5. No one here to fix it; no phone number to call. There was another woman whose money was also taken. 2) The dryers are very particular about how you put quarters in. It took me almost ten minutes to put $15 of quarters in the machine. Too fast, too slow, not enough spin, dropped in with a plop, and the machine rejects the quarter. 3) Extremely expensive. The $2.75 washer is smaller than a bucket. Really a rip off.

    See all

    The current wash and fold prices are awesome (25% discount). And it comes wrapped in nice paper. Turn around time is great as well.

    i recently had some wine stains on my favorite silk dress and I emailed Vernon to see if he could get the stains out.

    Same trajectory as all laundromats in sf - they used to be amazing, and have progressively gotten…read moreto mediocre at best. The was and bag service used to have 24hr turnaround, now it's 48hrs unless you pay $5 extra. Closing time is 10pm but if you come after 9pm, you cannot drop off. Whenever I come for pickup, even after paying $$, staff is not around half the time. There's a vaguely scribbled "back in 30 mins". Will they be back in 30 mins? Is it 30 mins from now or sometime back? Nobody tf knows. Sad to see this place become like any other laundromat in the city.

    AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!…read more After weeks of calls, unanswered messages, and repeated promises that a manager would contact me, I finally received a callback only after reaching a number listed on my credit card transaction details. The representative was immediately defensive, repeatedly talked over me, dismissed my concerns, blamed me for the damage they caused, and insisted that her experience justified ignoring my written garment-care instructions. I had explicitly requested hang drying, yet multiple expensive garments were returned shrunken and damaged. Two of the worst-affected shirts had never been washed before Laundré handled them. Rather than investigate or offer a remedy, the representative said they would increase my existing charge and bill me additional hang-dry fees because those fees had not been applied correctly, while dismissing the possibility that the missing charges reflected the requested service not being performed. She also denied any recollection of a documented 30-minute pre-subscription call and focused on how I obtained the business number instead of why nobody had returned my calls. Mistakes happen, and this is exactly the kind of local business I would have loved to support. Laundré presents itself as an environmentally conscious, community-oriented service that takes thoughtful care of customers' clothing, and I likely would have given them substantial repeat business. Instead, the aggressive and dismissive response, combined with the complete refusal to listen or meaningfully investigate my concerns left such a terrible taste in my mouth and I am leaving this review as a warning. Do not take your clothes here. Do not risk it. Reaching anyone with authority is nearly impossible: calls and messages go unanswered, employees repeatedly promise a manager will call back, and those callbacks never happen. They can never admit any fault of their own and always double down.
