Launderland

Horrible horrible experience. It was a Friday night and I had come in at 9 PM before the 9:30 PM last wash while a Filipino male worker was present. Right from the time I walked in the door, he was eyeing me. He initially said, I could come in and do my wash so I didn’t think anything of it until he kept giving me angry stares and harassing me while I was doing my laundry. It felt like he was trying to leave earlier than the 10 PM closing time and he would give me angry looks and raising his voice at me to hurry. This was very rude and terrible customer service experience.
I understand that he wants to get out early but I came in before the 9:30 PM last wash and I was just minding my own business washing. If he didn’t want me to wash, he shouldn’t have let me in. At other places I come in before the last wash deadline and the staff allows me to finish regardless if I have to stay a little past the closing time. He initially said he had a second job to go to right after closing, but then apparently this wasn’t true as he backed off on his harassment.
The analogy that makes this rude behavior more clear is if one had come to a restaurant to eat a little before closing and the waiter comments that you aren’t chewing fast enough and giving you angry stares between rude comments. This is exactly the same principle that was at work behind my experience.
I will not patron this business ever again and will spread the word to friends who live nearby and they will pass it along to others as well.
I suggest you bypass this business.

Cant believe how they run this laundry. Business states clearly they open until 10 pm. The closing lady closed the door at 9:50 and would not let us go in to take our clothes. This is a note to the business owner, the one you hired is lazy and irresponsible. Tried to find an excuse not open the door for us, and go home early. This is very unacceptable!!!

I’m surprised no one has written a review to address the OBVIOUS change: this laundromat is literally HALF the size. I stopped coming here because of that, crappy parking and the sketchy people coming in & out (who don’t do laundry, but loiter).
If you like the feeling of being squeezed in tight quarters with one escape option, come here. Btw, the folding tables are just as compact.

Horrible. They dryers here are the worst. I have had machines eat my money here. Seems like that happens often. Stealing my money and such. Fix the machines here. I want to leave with dry clothes not moist clothing. Take pride in your business please. And make the bathroom better accessible.

I’ve been coming here for 5 years, mostly without incident. But today I have lost money in TWO different machines and there’s nobody here to tell. The phone number is disconnected and there is no website. I am furious right now.

Take caution if you leave the area where your laundry is being washed. Someone stole my mesh laundry bag while I was away for 15 minutes. The staff working there wasn’t helpful and I had no way of hauling my laundry back home, besides asking them for a garbage bag.

It has been years since I’ve come to this laundromat, and because the nearest one to my house is closed for a remodel, I had to find another place. I went to the one on Faxon an Ocean, but it was such an awful experience in terms of its clientele and price point, that I decided to drive farther to this tried-​and-​true laundromat. I was even feeling a tad bit nostalgic for the days when I used to spend my weekend with my siblings, doing laundry here – a lifetime or more ago. It is open all year long 5 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Plus, I didn’t have to fight for a washer or dryer, and the other folks doing their wash, as well as the woman maintaining it today, were so nice due to the ample number of functioning, reasonably-​priced machines (starting at $ 2.25 for a small washer; 25 cents/​6 minutes for a dryer). Also, the clerk in the 7-​Eleven next door gave me a small discount on coffee. For someone who detests doing laundry, especially if I have to travel, the experience was so seamless and easy. What more does a girl want?

Coin/​quarter operated laundry.
Every single time I’ve been here to wash my laundry I never had to wait as there are a LOT of washers and driers. There’s a large variety as there are regular sized washers and also super heavy duty washers built for rugs, rags, that can hold up to 4 loads.
This Launderland is right next to a KFC/​Taco Bell combination and a 7-​Eleven. There’s also tons of other restaurants a short walk away nearby.
This place is moderately upkept. You may find a puddle near the washers but there’s always someone there cleaning up everything, collecting quarters from all the machines, and if the bill change machine is out of order, there’s usually someone there right away to fix it.
Depending on the washer you use, the price range is $ 2-​$ 4.25. All of the driers cost 25 cents for 7 minutes.

I have been going to this spot for years. Although the prices have gone up (I guess due to inflation or utility prices), I have always been able to find available washers and dryers at any given time of the day/​week. It is right next to a 7 – 11 and Taco Bell if you get hungry.

Pros: Tons of available washers/​dryers. Interesting people. Seems to be modestly kept up (someone cleaning constantly the entire 1.5hrs I was there). KFC next door. Parking lot with spaces.
Cons: a little more expensive than what I’m used to, could be a little more updated looking. Interesting people. KFC next door.
Nice neighborhood laundromat. In and out and end of story (if I don’t get lured by the aroma of fried chicken).

I haven’t been to a laundromat in years (my last 3 places have had in-​house laundry), so this review has no basis for comparison. (Unlike when I review burritos. I know all about burritos!)
They have a range of washers from regular size to super commercial capacity. These range in price from $ 2 to $ 4.25. All dryers are 25¢ per 7 minutes. It took 75¢ to dry delicates, $ 1 to dry clothes (with jeans), $ 1.25 for towels, and $ 1.50 for sheets with the mattress protector pad thing that’s basically a giant sponge.
There were a bunch of people there, but the place has so many machines, they couldn’t have slowed me down. I could still spread out across four machines at once.
Being out of the laundromat scene for a while, I must be out of the loop on the hazing rituals. Everyone there, like every single person, seemed to glare/​leer at me. I mean, not just at me. That sounds paranoid. But really, everyone seemed very protective of their laundry; it made me wonder if I should be so concerned.

doing laundry here was on par for the average laundry mat.
nothin too bad.
nothin too awesome-​tastic.
eh…
–some of the machines are pretty old, and have no timers and operate based on a «7 minutes per quarter» system.
–parking is nonexistent so be prepared to drop off your laundry with a (trusted, non-​laundry ditching to follow some hot girl into 7 – 11 and leave your laundry on the sidewalk) friend while you hunt for a parking spot nearby.
but…
–the place was pretty clean.
–no wait on a sunday afternoon.
–there’s a 7 – 11 next door to get coffee.
i’d come back here provided i don’t get poorer (this place is somewhat expensive).

Ok. so its been a good… 10+ years since I went to a laundromat to do laundry, so of course $ 2.50 per load seems a bit expensive. And a quarter for 7 minutes of drying doesn’t sound too bad, but not cheap either. But my friend who lives in the area passed by later and said this place is expensive, so I’ll take his word for it.
This place is HUGE though, so I don’t think you’ll ever be waiting for someone to finish up before you can do yours. There’s also a KFC/​Taco Bell right next door as well as a 7 Eleven, in case you get hungry or just super bored. They do offer many different sized machines for your different needs. And there is a lady there who cleans and all, so its somewhat safe to leave your clothes there.
We were freakin out yesterday cause we stepped away to chill at a friend’s house while waiting for it to dry. When we went back, the place was closed! Dammit, we didn’t see the close at 10pm sign (but we did leave the place at 10:20pm and people were still there). So I started freakin out about my clothes and tried to stay up until 5am to call them right when they open (either 5am or 6am). I called but nobody picked up, so I called again at 10:30am. The same lady who was there last night picked up and she told me she saved our laundry. So she asked what time I was gonna go to pick it up and I said 30 minutes later. She ended up folding ALL of it and putting it inside a plastic bag! I hope it didn’t cost her 75 cents for the damn bag at the vending machine! Dammit, I feel like going back to tip her right now. but that would be kinda weird. So maybe next time I’ll buy her a box of chocolates or something.
P. S. it would have a 5 star if only it was open a bit later. 12am maybe?

When the piles grow large and floor space is nearly non-​existent my room-​mates and i load up the back seat of my car and head to launderland. Why we choose launderland is simple, industrial size, strength, and speed.
There are always more than enough washers&dryers available and the coin machines are stocked and convenient.
launderland offers a few different size machines. my roommates and i combine our laundry, seperate by color and usually need the bigger machines.
My favorite machine in launderland is the GIGANTIC dryer, we can usually fit all 3 of our big loads into the biggest dryer which is considerably larger than the trunk of my car.
i agree that the parking lot is hell, might recommend double parking to drop the laundry and then parking on the street for the wait.

Ah, never a dull moment over at launderland. My favorite was the guy who told me he was Sammy Hagar and that his washer had broken earlier that day.
Their washers and dryers are so big, they could probably rent them out as studios. Not too expensive, and there’s a fair amount of shitty food nearby.

Awww, geez. I just hate doing the laundry. However, when I do, I do it at Launderland. Why? Because they have dozens of machines and many different sizes/​capacities of machines. There’s never been a time when I could not get a washer or dryer. This is the best thing about Launderland, and why I give it 3 stars.
The clientele at Launderland includes a larger than average share of oddballs. For example, I have been twice roped into a conversation with the same crazy lady who didn’t realize that she had already told me her long and twisted life story some weeks ago. I try to be tolerant of harmless crazies, but given her awful sour breath it was really, really hard.
The parking lot at Launderland is a pain in the a**. The first thing you will experience is the powerful smell of fried chicken and grease from the KFC and Taco Bell. Second, you will notice that the parking spaces actually block eachother. Be very careful when you are backing up, because it’s very hard to see, and there are people carrying laundry baskets that won’t be able to get out of the way. However, that is hardly the fault of Launderland itself– it’s just unfortunately stuck with a badly designed parking lot downwind of the fried chicken breeze.
The bottom line: get in, do your laundry, get out.
