Da Wash

Ver fast, very friendly and inexpensive! They did a very thorough job of cleaning and drying my car. Only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because they don’t take card. I never have cash on me so I had to walk to the atm. Other than that I was very happy.

I’ve always left 100% satisfied! These people deliver and for a decent price, I’ll continue to come here even if the location might not be the most convenient for me! I love how the employees are so hard working, 7 days a week ! You have to admire that work ethic, no matter what field you’re in! Im constantly recommending Da Wash to friends and they’ve always left happy!
When I come during the week, I’ve never waited longer than 10 minutes, on the weekends (just like any place that’s worth being) be prepared for a wait. Last Sunday I believe I waited about 35 minutes but if you love your baby as much as I do, it’s well worth it!

They do a fantastic job. My car looks brand spankin new! They really take their time to make sure it is spotless. I always recommend this place to everyone!

I came here yesterday for a $ 20 wash which includes interior and exterior. When the car was ready, I noticed dozens of dirt spots still on the car. It was like the 2 guys washing the car forgot to wash it with soap. So I kindly point to the dozens of spots and ask them to wipe off. Out of nowhere the older Mexican lady, presumably the owner, screams at me that this is not a detail, just a wash. She tells me that they can’t do anymore for me. Really?! What kind of business half washes cars and then is rude to the customers? I was very disappointed in the lack of quality in their car wash service and the lack of customer service from the Owner. Terrible!

Pulled up and was told my Nissan Rogue was an extra $ 10 to wash. I pointed out that the sign said truck and van $ 10 extra. A rude older female said it didn’t matter and I left. Won’t go back. Went to Challenger down the street and they did a great job.

I came in today and waited 20 mins only to be told that my car is «too dirty» and she wants to charge me $ 20 more than usual. I will never return here. Taking my business elsewhere. This is arbitrary pricing, and the wait is always at least 45 mins.

I can confirm that this is Da Ripoff described by previous reviewers. Confident that the bait and switch pricing previously described must have been due to miscommunication rather than shamelessness, I thought I’d give this place a try. Upon arrival I asked the woman how much a wash would be. She said $ 15 for exterior only, $ 20 for interior as well. That was $ 5 higher than the huge sign posted on the wall immediately behind her. I pointed this out, and she told me the posted sign is only for «most cars.» I asked why mine would cost more. She said because it is low to the ground. For the record, I have a standard issue Honda S2000, which is a small two seater that probably has about 60% of the surface area of a full size sedan, and is therefore LESS work for a hand car wash. She remained firm on the pricing pulled from thin air.
l decided I would rather have a dirty car for another day than reward unscrupulous business practices, so like several other reviewers I left. Customers beware.

They’re amazing really. Great prices and great work. I always tip every time I’m here.

Great service, everyone was friendly and my car looks great. They really took care to clean both the outside and inside. They do everything by hand which makes a huge difference. If you really want your car to shine and you have the time this a great place.
I recommend going early it does take awhile but that’s because they actually clean every spot. It took about 10−15mins but I wasn’t holding a stop watch so I could be off. Also bring cash.

I’ll be going back for sure! The only thing that I can complain about is that it’s a cash only place. Make sure you call before going.

Forget all the other reviews. Hands down the best hand car wash place. You pay the same amount at a regular car wash and not get half the service you receive her. Down side is the place looks unwelcoming. They should fix the alley way for cars to exit. Other than that I highly recommend coming here

Happiest I’ve been with a cat was in San Diego. The place is hard to find, it’s almost back alley, but they do a great job.

Upon arriving I was hesitant as the car wash was tucked in behind a auto shop and didn’t have any noticeable signs in how to enter. However, Team Da Wash took care of my car inside and out. I was asked of what I wanted done in my interior and if there were any areas to focus on. When vacuuming inside they did a great job in getting in the seats, under the seats and all my car mats.
For a small hand car wash place, in which I prefer hand car wash places, they did a great in cleaning everywhere to include the inside of my windows which is a pet peeve of mine that never gets done correctly and then I end up having to do it myself. Not the case here. Only going for 4 stars do to cash only which is strictly a personal preference, not a fan of carrying cash on me and needed to walk to a local market to get cash. Other then that, Da Wash you have a returning customer. Thank you!

Pulled up and nobody greeted me or acknowledge the fact that I was there for a good 10 min, when it was my turn I pull up and the lady says it’s gonna be $ 20 even though the price says $ 15 I ask why and her response is because your car is dirty… Hmmm that’s why I’m here, needless to say just turned around and left

Wish I could leave zero stars.
Came here one time before, a woman about my age was running the show. Car wash was OK, the tire wet they put on my tires spread all over the side of my car. No big deal whatever… but I decided to return again.
This time it was about 4pm close at 6 and no one else’s car was being washed. I thought perfect…
When I pulled in I saw one guy in a blue car. He was detailing his own car at the time but i noticed he mouthed he words like crap or damn there is a customer here. Would not even want someone with an attitude like that touching my car.
Make sure the woman in charge is there before you go. Glad I pulled right through that carwash, will never return
If you hate your job that much why do it?

Complete waste of time.
They used to do a $ 7ish wash that was exterior only (decent for brushless and machine-​less) but apparently did away with it for the new year. When I pulled up and asked for it this time, a nice gentleman regrettably told me the news, but then said he could do it for $ 10. Annoying, but fine. I’ll do it but I mentally decided this would be my last time here. As he began work, an older lady (presumably the owner or at least a senior washer) walked up to me and asked if I wanted the tires dressed. I said sure, provided it comes with the $ 10 wash. She said that it’s $ 14, so I politely declined, the $ 10 wash is fine. With a disgusted look, she informed me it would be $ 14 regardless. The @$!#.
At $ 14 there are 100 other car washes that can do a better wash QUICKER in San Diego. Do yourself a favor and go to none of them and wash your car yourself! Even a spray and wash is better, just bring your own supplies. I promptly stopped the wash, pulled out, and left. Never again.

I hate to be a hater. But this place brings this side out of me. I tried this place months ago. The owner, super sweet and attentive. Let me know that if there is anything that I needed to get done to let her know. The prices were affordable, this was great service!
I came back a few more times, and same treatment. They even offered to do some extra without charge. Not only were they cleaning the car, but they were very meticulous about it. So I was excited about this, I even sent like 5 people over to them.
All of a sudden, honeymoon period was over. I am not sure what I did, but they pretty much wanted to break up. Prices went up. The owner (a lady that is always there), wasn’t very nice. I am not sure if she did not recognize me or what, but she pretty much gave me the silent treatment. I asked if they could just clean a chair for me, and all of sudden, not only was there a price, but there was a PRICE. How do you go from not charging extra, to charging a whole bunch??? Transitions are good, they should be implemented here. I was able to put my feelings aside and get my car washed. Except the car was not properly washed anymore. The attention they once gave my car was gone. For $ 15, go down the street on Fairmont and they do a better job.
This was a huge bummer. I went from recommending this place to everyone to now regretting ever mentioning it. I am currently on my search for a better car wash.
Oh by the way, to all you anti-​smokers. There are always people smoking here. It really sucks. And they are soooooo inconsiderate. I am with two little ones, and they start smoking right next to me. There isn’t really any place I can go and escape the smoke. It gets trapped in there.

I had a pretty great experience here getting my pre-​road trip car wash. It’s all hand wash (no machines or brushes) and they take pride in their work. I like that it shares a lot with an auto shop so I can get my oil changed too.
A couple things to be aware of though: they wash one car at a time, and it takes 30 – 45 min. If there’s anyone in front of you, even 1 person, you’re going to be there a while. Also, it’s cash only and there’s no ATM on site, and they charge an extra $ 10 for SUVs and trucks.
However, I had enough cash, there was no line, and I was really happy with the service for a #3 package ($ 30 with SUV surcharge) so 5 stars from me!

The area is ghetto, so be ready to sit at the car wash for 20 minutes.
Besides that, this is the best wash I’ve ever gotten for my $ 15!
We washed both of our cars here. Everything in the car was paid attention to, inside of the windows, trunk, compartments, corners of the mirrors, edges of the doors. All done by hand.
Long story short, it’s a 35 bux hand wash done for 15, just not in the nicest neibourhood.

I came into the business REALLY skeptical. And honestly, if I wasn’t blocked in immediately after I drove in (after driving around and around trying to find it), I prob would have left.
No one greeted me, looked at me or made any effort to give me a sense of what was going on. I hate that because then you look like a D but really you’ve never been there so of course you don’t know what’s going on.
Eventually someone gave me a really warm greeting and their sincerest apologies. They were obviously super busy and short handed by two people. In a family business like this, two people is critical. I appreciated the eventual effort and forgave them on the spot. A real apology goes a LONG way.
Quick FYI: it seems like you sit in your car in line and then just drive up. Eventually you get close enough and someone will talk to you. It’s possible one of the people missing was the person who walks up to you when you drive in.
Watching them work on my car I began to get giddy for my new ride courtesy of Da Wash. I kicked myself for not bringing more cash to tip but vowed to make it up to them by being a new great loyal customer.
***** Almost 3 weeks later and things still look great. I did some minor touch ups but nothing to cause me to break out a sweat and I’ve had like 20 people in my car (Lyft)! I came back just because I want the people I pick up to have a new car every ride. But I could have gotten by with some quick vacuuming and a $ 5 exterior wash at the gas station. That’s the real measure of a great car wash. How long it lasts. A good clean lasts a while. :-) Thanks guys.
