Your standard do-it-yourself car wash. Several bays with decently soft foaming brushes putting out a good amount of foamy soap. All the hoses were pretty new and functioning properly. The machines dont take quarters, only tokens (you buy at a central machine) or swipe your credit card for up to $12 worth of time. Need more time, swipe again -- but dont forget to hit the STOP button on the credit card swiper or itll run all the way up to $12 before stopping. It was pretty busy at 4pm on a Tuesday... had folks waiting from almost the moment I pulled in, so be mindful of your time and efficiency. Theres also a covered area for toweling off, so you can vacate the washing bay.

Accepts credit cards. Two entrances means that it gets a bit confusing to queue. Its also a hassle to leave. The car wash tools themselves though were good, even if a little expensive (cost about $14 to finish my civic)

My son and I both went to this car wash and we cleaned two of his cars. The pressure washer at my stall was not a very powerful one. The rinse especially was very weak. I would have to say that you can clean your car here but its hit or miss on whether or not the spray machine is going to work at a high level. The cost of a 12 minute wash is $14 which seems a bit high but might actually be competitive. You can judge whether $14 is right for you.

Place can be a good place if people follow the rules, no hand wash means no hand wash.

Very crowded but luckily no one rushes you. You will be stared at though. When washing be aware of how many drying areas are available as a lot of ppl take longer to dry than wash

The spotless rinse is not filtered so it leaves water spots. this doesnt happen at my regular car wash spot

Accepts credit card and will charge min $4 for starting & up to $12/transaction max or until you press stop. The brushes and high pressure spray works well, not leaking or broken, and has rainbow foam too! 100% will come here over milpitas even if its further. It does get crowded though and small lot for drying.

Followed the the regimen for the self serve car wash. Many great options and allows more depth of cleaning than an automatic drive-through car wash. Unfortunately I finished and realized there was no practical drying method except thin $1 towels in the vending machine. Drove home and have many many spots :/

Review №24

Better go to during the week. Weekends can be hectic as everyone is here so you will have to wait a good while to get a turn and have cars waiting behind you. Come with patience on the weekend. Besides that its a good place to wash your car. Now no more quarters are accepted only $1 and $5 bills or credit/debit card. I usually spend $10 or less. Price varies on how long you take to wash.

Good place to wash your car. Some fixes needed here and there on some leaky pipes and such but nothing to bad. Overall good carwash. Go early so that you can beat the rush. Gets crowded on weekends.

Five Stars!! This is such a great place to wash your car. They keep the facility clean and the equipment is much nicer than the other do it yourself car washes in San Jose. The owner is a great guy and knows many of his local patrons. The owner also frequents the facility regularly to make sure all the equipment is working properly and his facility is always organized. They also have card readers so you dont need to carry around cash and coins. Come check it out!

Great place to wash your vehicles. It is a very clean and safe place to detail your cars. Mike is friendly and always around maintaining the place clean.

Review №42

Do not go here, there are several reasons why.1. Are we in the 1970s? Their token system machine is archaic. How about a machine that takes credit or debit cards? But inside the car wash bay they have a machine that does take credit or debit cards, but if you use that be sure to press stop when you are done or it will continue running and charging your card. Their double system is confusing.2. A 4 minute wash for $4.00 that would not even get your dog clean. I spent $8.00 in tokens and $2.00 in cash.3. This is the most insane one, they do not allow you to use a sponge while you are washing your car. WHAT?4. JUST DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE.

Reliable place to get you car cleanUpdate: After several times coming here I decided to use the debit car option since there wasnt cash in my wallet, big mistake vaccum charges 10 dollars to was is supposed to only charge 2. Hope this helps.

Review №45

Love this place. I like washing my own car, and this do it yourself place makes it super easy. You can use credit/debit cards in the bays, too, so you dont have to worry about your time running out. They put that in fairly recently.I usually spend a little less than I would at a gas station car wash, but with much better results.The facilities are well kept. There is even an open bay where you can wash larger vehicles, such as RVs.

Review №46

DO NOT USE CREDIT CARD OPTION!!!! When I finished washing 2 cars of mine the display tells how much you will be charged and it said 7 dollars and some change and the wash was a little linger at 9 dollars and some change. When checked my account the next day EZ clean charged me 10 dollars for each wash. I tried calling the number they provide on google and they never answer and there isn’t an option to leave a message. Wow real nice guys.

Review №47

Good set up. Shaded area but in the open. This makes it even nicer than washing your car in your driveway. The lots are side by side so youre engaged in the same activity as your immediate neighbors, so it is more interesting than sitting around at a car wash. I gave my car a good wash that felt sorta fun before taking it to my garage to finish the job with a cleaner wax. There is a vacuum kiosk for the lots but I havent a need for them yet.

No good ! The vaccuns doesnt take quarters and the change machine doesnt brake 20s ! How Im going to do my cleaning then ! I left without clean .

Review №49

It may say that it is a cheap option fir a car wash but it definitely is not. You pay as you go and if you want to do a decent job on a large vehicle it will ens up costing you bank. I went there after going to the dump to pressure wash the underside of my truck and after the wash that cost me over $30 I also had a lot of minor scratches from the brush they provide. I would definitely only go here if you have a small vehicle or plan to bucket wash and use the minimum time and equipment from them. Total waste of money and we will definitely not do that again.

Dont go here!!! They charged me $24 for what was supposed to only be $4 car wash and now refuses to give me back my money... And the phone number doesnt even work it just continues to ring! Its best to just go to an actual Car Wash instead of going here!

It’s a self service car wash, it serves a purpose. My issue is that there was no where to break a $20, so good thing I had a $5 and a $1 otherwise I would have been out of luck

Have to pre wash before I go. Brush bristles are so soft it leave dirt swirls on the car and bug guts on the grill. Do like that it takes credit card, super busy on the weekends..

Review №57

Love that they have triple foam. I just wish the entire place was turned around so the car wash was stalls were in the back and the drying area in the front because all of the overspray from the car wash gets on my car when Im drying it. But the place is still great.

Review №58

This place can get pretty busy but I know the times to go usually later at night or early in the morning. If you go midday when everyone else is washing the cars expect to wait in line. Everything always seems to be working here and the owner I met a couple times is a real nice guy.

Basic self-serve auto carwash with 5 stalls and an open ended spot for big vehicles on the end of the building. The owner is usually around to keep the soap guns and sprayers working. If you use 0.25 coins, you have to reload when device starts to beep! It also accepts credit cards and debit cards with kill button on the reader!

Great self serve wash. I always use a credit card and take as much or as little time as I need. No need to worry about change.

Jo
Review №74

If you want to spend a decent time washing your car and not spending $20 for only 20 minutes of wash time, then bring a bucket and your own soap, your own was and applicators and only use the rinser at the end of the wash. Otherwise, you would have to go so fast you would miss spots and everything.Recommended only if you have your own materials and just need a shaded area for waxing and a supply of soft water at different pressures for prewash and rinse. The tire cleaner they have is also pretty effective.

This place isnt in the best part of town and I did have a run in with a thug type individual but it was very late at night and it was sort of my fault but I did leave before washing my car because of it. go during normal hours. it is always busy though. Im not sure how the credit card accepting active works though. maybe you have to have a minimum but I had 5 bucks and it wouldnt work. so Im.not sure about that. its a decent place though.

Review №81

What can be said about a car wash? a lot apparently. Dont be fooled by the scrupulous look of the neighborhood, the odd characters hanging around or the dogs constantly barking in the background, this car wash is definitly my favorite self-service wash.It has the regular stalls with a power wash hose, a foaming brush and a soap spray gun. It also has a stall without a roof, so you can bring in those extra tall vehicles.It does NOT have an engine wash or hot water wash stall.All wash stall except credit cards, which is very handy.Recently they also added credit card readers to the vacuum cleaners, which means you can now come cash free when you go here.

Review №84

Always wash my car here for almost 6 years! Previous owner sold it new owners really keep the equipment maintained and cleaned!..... Update on review. Dropped 5 stars to 3 stars. While upgrades have been made, price went up from what it use to be which is understandable but, water pressure has been dropped and high pressure soap doesnt seem to work as much or produce soap. This is disappointing as I dont like to use the brush and scratches my car so I liked the water pressure it use to have to get all the dirt off. . Hopefully this can be fixed. Everything else is amazing still best coin op car wash

Review №88

Requires you to put 3 dollars in at a time, rather careful calculated so that youre almost done and just to finish 20 seconds of rinsing youd rather drive off than spending 3 whole dollars. Going as fast as I could 6 dollars wasnt enough time to rinse, foam brush, and rinse so be prepared for a 9 dollar car wash plus $1.50 x 2 vacuums so 12 dollars yeah nope.

Review №91

DIY for $27? No way. Rules posted are foolishing, it says pay $3 and use it till clock ticks, so I did it twice. In the end it charged me for 27. Then you have to wipe the car with your towel. At automatic wash the charge was 10 with wax, plus unlimited vacuum usage included - here you pay 1(if its not foolish price again) for 5? minutes.

Ro
Review №92

Overall this is a good value and good experience. There are very few self service car washes around, but sometimes they are much quicker than waiting in line at a full service wash. General upkeep at this facility is good, all the equipment worked and the coin changers were all working as well.The location is a bit difficult to find as it is not on major street, but its just a block away from the freeway.The only complaint I have is that the trash bins could be real trash cans instead of recycled plastic barrels. But really, it is good to see those barrels repurposed, so its not really a complain other than they dont have lids on them so people tend to fill them up to overflowing.
