Awesome car wash that's convenient and affordable. Ever since I got a new car I stopped using the drive through car washes and stumbled upon this coin op car wash. It has vacuums, trash cans, soap and brushes. The place can get busy but otherwise there's no complaints about it.

On one of the vacuum, when I put in the quarters it comes right out. Which is not a problem, but it's impossible to get it out of the slot unless you have a tweezer on you. Usually the quarters will roll out but this time it didn't. You can get your 50 cents back by snail mail but I decided to call it a loss. Never going here again

This is the only coin self serve wash that I found with ACTUAL spot free rinse. When it dries, there are no water spots. Other places say they have spotless, but it leaves water marks when you let it air dry

This used to be my go to coin-op car wash but not anymore. The price used to be $5 for 13 minutes but now its $6 for 11 MINUTES. I needed the 13 minutes to wash my car.... I don't mind paying more money but why take away the 13 minutes.... So wonder it was empty today
The reason for the 1 star review? If you look at my other photos. Theres rusty water leaking from the top of the water piping. So i washed my vehicle & then went home to wash my front section of my vehicle.....Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jennifer P.Sun Valley, Los Angeles, CA0110Nov 16, 2024
This place is typically packed, especially on the weekends and the afternoon! The pressure is great including the spot free rinse having great pressure! I like the towel drying roller to squeeze out the water. There's also plenty of space to park to dry your vehicle, etc.

No thick suds, no blower, expensive, nothing good about it, I wouldn't care for the place and just go for another place

Smooth, simple, stress free system . Wish they had a blow dryer for the car (bring your own towels) but they make up for it in other ways. 10/10

Really pleased with my experience here a couple of weeks ago. I feel it was a good value for the price. The entrance sneaks up on you and is kinda set back from Duarte Rd. so be watching for it! If you get to Nano Cafe, you went too far. Like some others have said, the area is a little sketch, but I was alone and there during the day and felt relatively safe. Seemed ok at that time, but not sure I'd go alone at night.
I came around 1pm and was able to go right into a cleaning bay, no waiting. The vacuum cleaners are positioned before the car wash bay instead of in the back, so I really liked that bc I always vacuum before I wash the outside. The vacuum had ample tubing and reached all areas of my car. For the $1 it gave me plenty of time to do one whole side of my car (not sure the exact amount of time, but it was good value imo). I added a couple more quarters and was able to finish the whole interior, so it's ample time.
I spent the $5 up front for the 13 minutes and it was the exact perfect amount of time to do my whole Mazda! I used the tire cleaner and brush, used the soap wand and then the soap brush for the whole car, rinsed, did the coat protectant and then the spot free rinse and finished just as the time expired. It was the perfect amount. Everything cleaned nicely as well! The wands and brushes have plenty of slack in their tubing and pretty much rotate entirely so you can walk around your whole car. The spot free rinse worked well too...there were a small few spots of water dried on, but hardly noticeable. They also have floor mat hangers too. Will definitely be back!Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Aug 15, 2019
There's something very therapeutic to me about washing your car and Coin-Op is so easy and affordable for me to do it myself on a weekly/monthly basis depending on my schedule. It's 24 hours so I've come at odd hours of the night to wash my car, keep in mind it's not the safest of neighborhoods as there is a liquor store across the street.
You pay $5 for 13 minutes and you get an arm workout woot woot! My routine is to first, soap it down with the sprayer and then use the soap brush to clean the dust and dirt. Then the pressure wash to rinse and wax it and rinse again. The wax smells really good too. They use special spot-free water here so you don't have to dry off the car with towels after it's done washing - you can just drive off and let the wind air dry your car and it's never left water spots for me. It's also $1 to vacuum your own car which is a great way to clear out all the receipts, water bottles and miscellaneous trash that accumulates throughout the week.Helpful 9Thanks 0Love this 13Oh no 0
