This place is #1 !!! First off, I can get 3 loads of laundry done for under $10. I see the maintenance guys and staff in there taking care of the machines and while this place isn't the Type A personality level of bright and clean inside, my clothes come out clean and fresh and that's what I care about when I go to a laundromat. A great location in OB close to coffee shops and the beach for those in between load moments. Plus they have a small parking lot which is really convenient and there's always a spot left just for you!! read more

Wonderland Coin Laundry - Standing the test of time! - Laundromat Near Me - San Diego, California

Absolutely worst laundromat in ocean beach. Machines are old and don't take quarters unless you try 100x and put them in just right. The dryers always leave my clothes damp so I have to hang dry them. Countless issues. read more

Had nothing in stock. No detergent at all, just bleach. Didn't even have sodas in the vending machine. Seems neglected.

A little expensive but it's close to my place so it's convenient. Every time I've gone there are always open machines. It's OB so there's a lot of dog hair everywhere but that doesn't bother me. read more

Washers and dryers are in good shape and standard pricing. $3 per wash $.25/5minutes of dry. Very close to the beach. I met the owner, really nice guy. Excellent laundry mat, I highly recommend. read more

Best laundry mat in OB!!!!! The dryers get super hot lol All in all this is a good place to wash your clothes if you dont have a washer and dryer at home. read more

Clean, functional neighborhood laundromat. Especially loved the tucked away board with heights marked of kids over the years.

Good thing I was doing laundry when the owner was around because the machine stopped working after I overloaded the washer. The owner came around and paid for the second washer to split the load. Really cool guy and handled my mistake like a gentleman. You'd be supporting a cool guy and a local business by coming here. read more

Just like Yelp-er John l., I reside near-by and haul all my comforters and big stuff to wash down to Wonderland. It is conveniently-located and has lots of washers that look decent and half way clean. This location-I found out from one of the neighbors who I started chatting up-is on the actual site of the Wonderland Amusement Park that once was located in Ocean Beach. In fact inside the business there are framed photo's on the wall of the past history of the area. I also would not advise leaving laundry unattended here because it is on the pathways of many a home-challenged individual. Deep in the heart of North OB and across the street from a popular liquor store-it can serve as a flop house of sorts to the down-and-out. I like the cool tile floors and painted walls with the hanging pictures. There is a homey feeling to Wonderland. Rocky's Surf Shop next door is rad and there is a take-out pizza place one block away. As long as you can hang while you wash, it's all good. I find the history of the place fascinating enough to tempt fate that no panties pincher will get into my dryer while I'm not looking. It was interesting to note that the last time I was there, the trash can was full of clothing, including sweaters and jeans that was abandoned there. Maybe the place is a way station for the underground homeless railroad to pick up some new threads along the way? As one of the few places to do laundry in Ocean Beach, Wonderland is A OK!! read more

Wonderland Coin Laundry - Laundromat Near Me - San Diego, California

See all

Clean and efficient! Had to do some laundry before headed to our road trip. Around the corner several coffee shops to help pass time.

tried a new OB laundry mat this week and was disappointed. The front loading machines didn't really seem to clean my clothing at all and no card readers on any machine which sucks. read more

I came here because my Lyft driver said it was close to where my vacation rental was. Every machine I opened had pet hair in them and around the door. It really grossed me out and I didn't have anything to wipe them down with before beginning my load. If I was in my own car I would have gone somewhere else. Washing my laundry with pet hair is inexcusable. The owner can walk through and clean them but clearly he doesn't care. I even saw him walk through so why not check the machines? I won't be back. FYI, one load is $2.25 so it gets 1 star for being cheap and 1 star for decent washing machines for small loads. The owner needs to get rid of the nasty carpet on top of the machines! Those things are a breeding ground of dirt, bacteria, bugs and allergens. read more

Wonderland Coin Laundry - Hours of operation - Laundromat Near Me - San Diego, California

So far out of all the Laundromats in OB, this is the cleanest and best. The owner is nice, has very attentive employees and keeps everything "up-to-date". I recommend. Big thumbs up! read more

I have a washing machine now but live in the neighborhood on W. Pt. Loma. I used this facility for years, and the prices on the machines were at the time lowest in town. Dryers were a bit slow but worked. Hot washes were good and hot not like some who penny pinch with low water temps Above all if you got robbed there was no hesitation to send you a refund, just drop a note in the slot. Word of warning, the logistics and location encourage laundry theft. I have stopped a couple of dirtbags from pulling up, running in and grabbing a load of jeans from the dryers so don't leave a load in the dryer and go home. Not many people want to steal wet clothes so a wash is probably okay to leave. read more

A few of the washers always seem to be out of order however their prices are best around so I have been coming here nearly 30 years.

So the special lady and I went here last Sunday. To start with something positive, I'll say that their washers are cheaper than the other 2 places I've done laundry in OB. The major downside of this place is the lack of functioning dryers. It's a small joint, and when we were there we had to wait about 15 minutes for a dryer. When we finally got a dryer, the thing functioned as well as a clothesline on a cloudy day. The dryers were also cheaper than other places in the area, but if you have to dry them for longer it really isn't cost effective. Not coming back. read more

Everyone in San Diego seems to own a dog, or a cat...pets, anyhow. Which essentially makes washing one's clothes in a public laundramat a definite crap shoot. This facility's machines had visible pet hair inside them, as well as a bit of grit. It's well nigh impossible to keep a BEACH laundramat (the machines)grit/ pet hair free, I know this. That having been said: The place is kinda...rustic, run down a tad, but efficient and cheap. The machines ( despite the predictable grime issues) appear newer, and the dryers are good. There's a pizza place steps away. I'll definitely go here again. read more

This used to be my favorite laundry mat until they installed the double load front loading machines. They are cheaper than the single loading machines, but the front door collects hair and other things and aren't cleaned. Also, the doors are closed after use which makes them smell like mildew. I've mentioned this to the guy who cleans there, but nothing changed. I would just continue to use the top loading machines but the mat significantly raised the price of those after the installation of the newer front loading machines. I went back to battling my neighbors for the one washer at our complex. It's cheaper now. read more

They have newer equipment and the price is right. What more do you really need? It's very well kept, nice and clean.

I do my laundry here every week. The price is reasonable and there is a good variety of washers: top loaders, front loaders and large capacity. The dryers are only 25 cents for 8 minutes and do a super job. The atmosphere is friendly and comfortable; there is a regular clientele which makes it fun to come in and do your laundry. Additionally, the staff is personable and attentive - quick to assist with any issues. If they aren't on site they can be reached with a phone call. Highly recommend. read more

Instead of the usual awful pop music or blaring TV you get in most laundromats, this laundromat plays quiet, real jazz. I was actually able to pair my socks while listening to John Coltrane. And there's a few photos of old OB on the wall. Also, it's cheaper than the other laundromats in OB and is open later. read more

I was told to stick around while my laundry was washing just to make sure no one made off with my clothing. I'm not sure why someone would want my cotton ladies underpants or my child's clothing but, regardless, I stayed. It was late morning and I was able to get two loads of laundry done in about an hour including drying. It was a quarter for 8 min of drying which I thought was a good deal since the dryers were large. It didn't seem busy. It was a little dive-y. read more

This is the only place in OB I'll do my laundry. The dryers are 25 cents for 8 minutes. This usually dries one load. I've never had an issue here with machines not working or people stealing like at the other places in OB. Plus the 2 guys that own(?) the place are super nice. read more

Typical laundromat. Mostly single and double load machines. Only a couple super big machines. Dryers are really old. No bathroom for customers. read more

I've been doing my laundry here for about 4 years. If it wasn't for the recently installed new dryers they would probably get one star. It would be nice if they could upgrade to new washers, these one's are pretty small and old, but they get the job done I guess, and aren't too expensive: $1.50 per wash. My major problem with the place is they need to be a little more hands on. It wouldn't kill them to have someone pop in several times a day to wipe out the machines and pick the crap up off the floor. I actually show up every time with paper towel in hand to clean out the washers which inevitably always have leftover hair, paper, gum rappers and the like in them. The other major issue are the vagrants who frequent the establishment. 7/10 times I show up one of them is sitting inside picking their toenails or doing something else equally disturbing. One of them actually tried to start a fight with me when I told them I didn't have any money, but thankfully he had already been a problem before I showed up and someone from rocky's next door had already called the cops. Despite their presence I've never (to my knowledge) had any of my laundry stolen, and I never sit around and wait for it. I do however set a timer so I show up the moment the machines finish. All in all, not the worst laundry mat I've used, but they could do a few things to greatly improve it. After all we all go there to get our stuff clean, when the place is dirty or full of dirty smelly people it greatly takes away from the feeling that our stuff is actually getting cleaner by bringing it there. read more

This place is a JOKE! 60% of the machines don't work and the ones that do either eat your quarters and don't give you any time, or they take a minimum of 60 minutes to dry a medium load. Lights are burned out, there are no carts, and there is also no ventilation in the place so you burn up in there trying to fold your clothes. There are homeless out front begging for your quarters and no attendants to be found! This is a very poor excuse of a business obviously run by someone who doesn't care, but happy to take your money. read more
