Marvin’s Cleaners

I got clothes back from here with some faint stains (assuming from the way they were cleaned) and buttons on two shirts were stripped and scratched. I will not return.

$ 0.90/lb and you have yourself a deal. The only drawback is that they don’t fold the clothe as neatly as my other spot.
I mean I shouldn’t complain because they fold the clothes exactly how I would have done it (not as crispy) but I can pay $ 0.10 more per lb and get it done perfectly how I like it.
If you live close by, go here. Still a great place and although I’ve only been once, I have no complaints.

The wash and fold here is the best. I’m probably using close to that much water doing it myself anyway. Like a previous review said, the lady at the counter is very nice.
To sum it up, can’t really go wrong with their wash and fold, especially at $ 1/​pound. Except hey have a special this month at 90 cents/​pound! Time to get ALL the laundry done!

This place is my laundry hero.
Living in Russian Hill smells a lot better than Soma but there were some casualties from the move over here — namely no parking, no laundry.
Seriously, I don’t even have shared laundry in the building! Since time is money, I decided to spend that time and money on wash and fold instead of sitting at a laundromat.
WHAT A GODSEND. Come on – they wash and FOLD your laundry. It’s a freakin’ miracle I tell you. A miracle. Discovering wash and fold was almost as great as discovering housecleaning services.
This place has better prices than the other laundry places nearby and the woman at the counter is the nicest ever.
I’ve even had her hem my jeans and sew buttons back on for me. It’s also my go-​to place for dry cleaning.
Two years now and not one missing or damaged item. :)

It’s sort of ridiculous to see all these great reviews. That is why I tried this place out. In fact, I have gone there a few times. Here are a couple choice moments:
1. I took my suit there to prepare for an interview. I went to pick it up and it smelled like it hadn’t been cleaned and my shirt still had many wrinkles
2. I took a nice jacket there to be cleaned. When I got it back, not only did it smell like it hadn’t been cleaned, but it smelled like someone had been smoking near it, and I don’t smoke at all!
Needless to say, not worth it. Find another place.

Had some tailoring done there, done by woman named Vinnie (sp?). Very friendly and helpful. Great job. Pants hemmed for $ 10. Sportcoat sleeves shortened. Excellent work.
Highly recommended.

Ok… another edit… they took care of the stains! My skirt came out really nice after the alterations. They’ve redeemed themselves, so 5 stars now!

Yes, I am a lazy bastard and love the idea of someone else doing my laundry.
I couldn’t tell you prices because I’ve never actually paid much attention to their giant wall menu. Not that I have money to burn by any means… but I’m willing to spend anything, in reason, to avoid fighting over the 1 machine my building has.
Anyway…
They do a fantastic job and have always been able to have my clothes back to me the same day, if I ask.
I gave them an extra star based on the fact that they tie all my mismatched socks together. I have so many I’m starting to feel embarrassed about the growing sock knot. :(
Also, this place is funny… they don’t have a tip jar or even seem to expect to get one, which I’ve noticed at a few laundry places… but the funny thing is that when I hand my tip to the awesome Asian lady, she smiles and looks away with shock and embarrassment. It’s great. It makes me smile.

Burned my buttons off and left me shirtless.

I love the service at this place. Winny runs the front counter and she is the best. She isn’t the owner but it sure seems that she should be. Rain or shine 6 days a week she is there and the service is always on time. I usually get my clothes back the very next day with no extra charge. They do not take credit cards. Cash or checks only.

I never thought I’d hear myself say I’ve fallen in love with an asian woman, but the lady who runs Marvin’s is fantastic. 90 cents/​lb for fluff and fold and she knew how I liked my laundry after only one visit (cold water wash please, so as to avoid shrinking). I feel a touch bad when I let my clothes build up to the point where she strains to lift my bag over the counter, but she tells me to have a nice day nonetheless.

My new favorite cleaners. I brought in a heavily stained white designer trench coat. Why? I made the mistake of bringing it and wearing out to a dive bar. Call me silly. But it looked damn good that night.
The lady there went over the garment completely looking for any stains. She marked them with red tape and was patience as I went through the jacket as well.
CASH ONLY!!!

I’ve been taking my things here for about 2 months now and thus far, I’ve had good experiences. The prices are pretty cheap and the work is always well done. The lady who works behind the counter always makes sure to go over the garments with you and marks all stains with tape. She also didn’t show the least bit of judgement when I recently took in my vomit-​stuck-​together-​cashmere sweater. Only draw back is they do not take credit or debit cards, so make sure you bring cash or your checkbook.
