This is my favorite place to wash my car. Love that you can use cash or card in the car wash bays..Only reason I didnt give it five stars is because everytime I try to vacuum my car none of my dollars get accepted by the machines..old Bills or New crisp ones so you gotta bring quarters.

Pretty good, but it seems there is no slow foaming brush. Every selection is under pressure.

The place is ok for a regular car wash but it needs some improvements.

Very old wash brushes, dirty place and expensive. Brush had no foam and there is no power washer, just the old brush. Paid $6.75 for my car to still dirty. Never coming here again. Don’t waste your money, go somewhere else! Definitely don’t recommend !

It’s nice for a self wash to accept credit cards, but the rubber hose for the brush in the bay I used cut my hand in multiple places during my 5 minute wash, which would obviously damage paint too. The brush was also aged and should be replaced.

All the equipment is updated and does a great job washing your car. And theres plenty of room to detail your car after the wash.

The time to wash and dry the vehicles is to short and the vacuum half of them were not working and someone jammed the coin slot on the one I tried to use and there was no way to get me money back that I put in and no one on site to handle issues.

Dont really like this place.... its one of the only self-service car washes around Long Island. Machines are old and over-priced though.

Do not use this car wash. Vacs do not work, water pressure is very low, zero soap in car wash bays, change dispenser just swallows your money. Avoid this car wash and save your time and money

I have been using them since 2011. It is a decent place to do a quick car wash to keep your car out if dirt and dust. However, this palce is a bit confusing when it comes to credit card payment. I am not the only one complaining about this. They cahrge $5 for 5 minutes. I typically do 5 to 7 minutes quicky wash 2 to 3 times a month. However, I used credit card today and I was charged $10 for only 6 minutes. Before I swiped my credit card, I read all the instructions on the wall. There is no mention of the card will be charged in multiply of $5. Therefore, even if I have used the machine for 6 minutes, versus the $6 when compared to using cash, they charged me $10. Also, the instructions said that the total amount will be displayed after pressing the stop button. The display did not show the charged amount after I pressed stop. Not sure it the 7 segment display has showed it very quickly so that I couldnt see or it didnt show at all. Idk. If they simply put the words on the card reader, it would be less confusing. I wouldnt have stopped at 6 minutes and I can keep going longer. I read all the signs again and I really didnt see any mention of how the card will be charged. Only have instructions of how to use credit card as a payment method. I knew using credit card in this place is a mistake. Ive heard stories about using credit card is this place and this is why I always use cash if possible.

Didnt realize till I started that the brush in the bay I was in was really worn out. Not worth the $15 I put in.could have went to a regular car wash for the same price and got better results.might have been better experience if the brush was intact.

Review №28

It used to be better. Equipment isnt well maintained. The vacuums didn’t take dollars even though there was a bill slot. After I got coins and got machine working the suction was poor at best. This used to be a go o place for me. The brushes for washing are also worn out and the hoses are leaking badly. Supposed to get the car wet no me and my clothes.

If you’re a car person, you know not to use the brushes at these car washes, I don’t even use the same wash mit twice because of the damage it does to the paint.

Review №34

Good place you quickly clean the cars after and snow storm or if you just wanna power washed because is muggy or dirty.A quick option to the car wash, but for a clean car will be easier and cheaper a cash wash, cost 5 dollars for 5 minutes so consider the fact that a cleaning a car takes a lot longer than 5 minutes.

Went in for a quick soap and water wash. The machine said it charged my credit card 4 bucks. Just looked at my statement and was charged 10 bucks. Big difference. And paying by bills wasnt an option. Figured out why.

Its a solid diy carwash. Nothing to fancy, everything works well normally. Excepts cash and has a token machine the choice is yours which is awesome. Most of the vacuum nozzles are still on them too. Operates all yr round

Review №46

$4 for 5 min but authorizes your card for $10. Not a big deal so long as the difference is put back. Car is still dirty, not surprising - how much car can you wash in 5 min and I drive a coupe! Timer is difficult to read; very small so I can imagine you lose track of time easily while washing = > $$. New to the area but self wash places in drought riddled California are $5 for 15 minutes. Its almost like this place wants you to go to the full service car wash, which I will do moving forward. Always liked to wash my own car. SAD!

Not very clean, very expensive for the quality and could use an upgrade. All-in-all it gets the job done and has all the services you need; including a credit card terminal.

The wash cycle is so cheap on the soap coming out of the brush that it was liking using water only. Maybe the soap was running out so I will try again cause I love the convenience

Mi
Review №52

The whole time I was washing the car, water poured from the loose hose connection in the stall. Also, there should be a separate brush and rinse wand. It takes twice as long to rinse your car, and therefore, more money. And that money is tokens only.

Review №53

I have been going to this car wash for over ten years. However, in recent years I have noticed most of the equipment fails to work properly, if it even works at all. Today, the water hose had frayed metal strands that put minor cuts into my leg( 3rd inner Bay from left from rear of building).If a child or someone unaware of this is near this type of dangerous worn out equipment, it may not be a such a minor incident. Other days, I have noticed no or very little soap, the air drier hose easily kinks and tears open leaving weak air pressure. I have noticed video surveillance cameras in each of the bays, and they should show the dangerous conditions(and my leg getting cut up), but I guess the cameras dont work either.Due to safety concerns, I will no longer be going to this car wash until owner decides to update and modernize this facility.

Never a wait, love the convenience of credit cards. Maybe a little more frequent check of the hoses and leaks. I know you get wet but I just had my truck at the outside bay and where the hose meets the cleaning head was spraying directly on me. Totally soaked

Good place to clean your car or truck and they even have a spot for big rigs but everything you do takes coins except for the wash you can use your debit card everything else is old coin technology

For $15 bucks you get a decent wash but the equipment is old and you have to watch out for the machine because it could eat money and not work!

Review №62

Probably one of the worst car wash locations you can find on the island. I brought my company van to get it washed. I had to put 10 dollars extra in to attempt to rinse my vehicle. The machine was all messed up and never switched the soap off so I had to leave the location and rinse at my shop. When I got someone on the phone it was some older woman who didnt seem like she knew what she was doing. She offered a full refund and I never received it. So 2 weeks later I called again and she just kept saying yes and apparently sent out a 2nd refund. I never received it and I will never go back. I would never recommend anyone go here even if you have a vehicle that doesnt fit in a normal carwash. Youre better off just letting the rain wash it off rather than having a soapy finish. Hopefully the owner reads this and puts some effort into changing things. Otherwise not only am I not going to suggest no-one goes there. I will be posting this on my Facebook and other social media platforms where my followers and friends will read this and spread the word.
