Bout what youd expect from an inner city self car wash -- fixtures are beat up (and in some cases inoperable), theres barely enough room to turn around (and sometimes not enough), and its always packed. Oh and they charge 10 bucks even if youre only doin a quick spritz. Hoses have some oomph though. At the end of the day, isnt that all you really need?
The phantom came out like new
Car wash is ok but the guy in duty is unhelpful y wish i can contact the owner
This place is a scam. I purchased 4 tokens, the machine showed 5 something mins almost 6 and the time ran out after I finished foaming my car. This has never happened before in other car wash locations. I always finish cleaning my car (rinse, foam, rinse, air dry) within 4 mins. I talked to the owner and he had to give me a full lesson on how the hell did he know how many tokens Id put in. I just assumed they did something to the machines. Very dishonest business!
Love this car wash
Machines only take dollar bills & vacuums only take dollar coins. You can get change there if you need.
Kind of a scam. The high pressure rinse dispenses less soapy water so you still need to use their additional rinse options to get rid of soap. Hence more time, more cost.
If you go here, do NOT use the foaming brush. My entire car was scratched up from it.
I had an amazing and somewhat fun time washing my rental car. I was proud of myself when I finished and left the carwash all ready to begin work all shinny and clean. I cant wait to go back when its time.
Great car wash! You get a great car wash, interiors vacuumed, windows washed, dried and tire shine. Definitely worth it!
Love this place. I get lots of soap during the wash, and free vacuum tuesday and Wednesday.
Old guy that runs this car wash is very rude and pushy, he will walk right up to you after spending a good amount of money washing and try to get you to leave right at the 15 min mark for vacuuming. Save yourself time and find a car wash that values paying customers
Kind of price it place, I spent $8 and it didnt give me enough time to finish. I am not coming back to this place.
Great car wash! They are generally really busy. But they do a good job & make quick work of a long line of cars. I love the option of just having the outside washed. I can stay in my vehicle & drive off when they finish drying it. I have been going there for years.
The Salvadorian guy was very nice, helped to guide where everything goes and what to use. Went around 9:20am & left at 10am, was very pleased with the customer service!
Amazing and speedy service. The gentlemen were polite and patient with me since I asked lots of questions for my first time and all for good prices.
Sprayer was completely broken so it took my $4; no way to get a refund or cancel. Then I go to the only vacuum that was open and it is out of service. I just left.
It gets the basic job of cleaning the grime off your car done and its affordable.
I really love washing my own car! You get to save more money by doing so. Love the fact they have quite some shade in the vaccuum area..not all places have that!BIG PLUS : free vaccuum 2 days a week!
The screen said 3 dollars for the wash, which would be right I just sprayed my car down. But my statement says they charged me 10 dollars. No contact info on the website
I dont have kids BUT your kids will definitely have a blast with all the colored light changes. The car wash itself is super cost-effective and time-efficient. And by the way, its just freakin relaxing. I HIGHLY recommend road ragers make a pit stop here to chill out before making their commute!
I have never experienced such rude service in my life. The elderly man who said he is the owner has no concept of customer service. I was about to use the vacuum to clean my car but I had to take an emergency phone call. I was in my car no more than 5 minutes when this man kicked me out of the lot. I will never do business at this place ever again. They overcharge and the equipment doesnt work most of the time so just as well.
Most of the time, you can just pull in and self-wash your car because their are available stalls.The best part is their change machines because they dispense dollar coins.Best time to go in the weekends is between 7-10 in the morning and late evening.
The best value in LA. Excellent facilities and friendly staff. Clean exterior for $7 and then vacuum and detail yourself for free with their tools. Amazing.
I come here often but lately Im disappointed this wash stopped taking quarters. Its very inconvenient at times to have paper cash to exchange for dollar coins when they used to take quarters, which I usually have bags of to use for this kind of thing. Extremely annoying. Bring quarters back because without them, this place is useless.
No soap in the dispenser so i stopped the was at 2 minutes and my card was charged $10.
This place is a Rip off! 8$ for 10 mins? Are you kidding me? Stay away from the place, you are paying for the area not the service. Since echo park had become trendy near by business are cashing in and jacking up prices
A good self-service car wash. If youre quick you can do a full cleanse of the exterior for just $4, from pre-soak to foam brush to high pressure wash to spot free rinse. I take my car to a full service car wash once every month or two, and come here for when it needs a quick clean up after a trip to the desert. Just be sure to do a quick hand dry after pulling out or youll get a lot of water stains! Vacuums were there as well but havent tried them yet.
Excellent place! Super clean facilities and staffs were helpful.
Do not use your credit card here. It charges you extra and it lies to you saying the max is 10$ all it will do is charge you twice and will say it only charged you $5 only use cash here. So disappointed. But besides that. its decent, EDIT( after all this waiting the charges were deleted from the bill so im assuming that it has a charge hold up until it gives you a real charge. fair warning wait out the pending)
Nice car wash .. free vacuum ..
A little tough to schedule (not enough waschers yet), but guy did a great job once here. Took about an hour and a half with the car and really went over it all inside and out. Pretty happy with the result.
Like others say dont use credit card,it will charge you double. Other than that lots of foam and good nozzle spray at this location( free Vacuum Tuesday and Wednesday) be there early to avoid long wait. Enter thru Mohawk St. Not Alvarado side too avoid any chaos with other drivers coming out from washing or drying thier Vehicle.
Shaded dry bay areas 😍
This is a very good place to go wash your car, for very little moneyWith 6 or 7 bucks you leave with you car nice and clean, you has to do it your self dho!Hope this helps people.
I want this place to be cool, but it actually sucks.Most things don’t work, hoses have holes in them and spray water everywhere.
Alvarado car wash was as great as a self service car wash could be. Put in about $9 for the car and $3 for vaccumming (on Tuesdays vac is free.)The manager Abel was very helpful, and went above and beyond customer service expectations.
This is the best self service car wash place. I have been here many times. Great Service
Ive been a patron for 10 years. Ive had 2 run-ins with the on-site attendant. Hes rude. Im calling management today. Argument #1 - I told him there wasnt any soap in the spray wash and he insulted my intelligence by telling me that I dont know how to turn the knob correctly. I repeat, there wasnt any soap like all my previous car washes there. Argument #2 - I noticed a broken tire degreaser on the floor of one of the stalls but I drove in to wash my car since all of the other stalls were being used. He turned hostile so quickly and accused me of breaking the wand! I defended myself kindly but he insisted it was me. The argument devolved into him threatening to review video. I gave him my contact information and told him that the video would clear me and that he could use my contact information to apologize to me after reviewing his video. He got in my face and was hyperventilating. Customers like myself do not deserve treatment like this.
Worst customer service ever the guy working there needs some serious training. If you go there prepare to get ripped off and called a liar to your face.
Decent place to wash your own car. The machines all worked and it was easy to ise.
Generally nice, but the pressure on the rinse was so low.... Im sure it made my wash take longer and caused me to have to spend more money.
It was caca
Dont go to this place! Used a credit card and the machine stoped 30 seconds in. Checked my bank statement charged me $10 for a 30 second car wash. Go elsewhere.
They do best job for the money
Nice and clean
My first time in this place and it was ok Ive been in other places and feel more like home.
Decent car wash, if you wash quick you can get it all done for cheap.
Car wash was fine, but only 2 of the vacuums worked and they were super busy.
Best place to hand wash your car. Coin, bill or credit card. Clean and everything works, high water pressure.
I rinsed my car using my debit car, i was Charged $4.. but my bank statement shows I was charged $10. I’m very disappointed, oh and the phone number on their website it’s disconnected. Also none of the dispensers work, their all out of order. No attendant either.
Nice car wash
Have always gone to this car wash. Awesome price and use the 2 stations to the left theyre the one with super high pressure water
Eashing the car for lyft
I have been coming here for years!.. I dont know about the bad comments all I know its my favorite spot to go too.
Fine when things work
I went there a couple of times it was $2 now they want $4 for like 3 minutes save your money you could go to Beverly and Gerhart and wash your car for for the same time limit for only $1
It was congested
Waiting time is too long
Went to wash my car. The hoses and the handles on the washing equipment was covered with grease and the whole place is unkept. The function for pre wash (soaking in soap spray ) didnt work and the water pressure was horrible.
Like going here is always kept clean
Nice and relax place to wash your car
Need better maintenance and professional employees!
Car wash bays take credit/debit but the vacuums are coin only.
Love it
Nice coin-op car wash
Loved this car wash! High water pressure!
They do a decent job.
Tues and Weds free vacuum what else can we ask for
Only one of the vacuums worked. At least the outside of the car got cleaned.
Vacuum hardly works. Overall 2 stars due to machine eating up your money and no one around to help.
Quick self-service
You always save money when you do it yourself
They left my windows open, my car flooded, they dried it out, but still wanted me to pay for the wash....
THEY ARE HARD WORKERS KA
No help at all
Dont use the rainbow foam stuff
Free vacuum on Tuesdays and Wednesdays
Love it
Muy bueno les recomiendo muy limpio
Cheap service.
Excellent
I like this clean I cheap the cars side
VERY CLEAN AND NICE THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICES.
The machines always swallow your money and there is never anyone in charge to answer the number that appears on the website is out of order.
They do not give maintenance
I like it because it is very clean
We go as a family to wash our cart, we like the place very quiet and spacious
A little inattentive but still convenient
Good prices, space and good service

Excellent service.
