Been a member since the Golden wash opened. You'd be 5 stars if you weren't closed so often. Get it together or I'll go someplace else

The staff appeared intoxicated — slurring their words and smelling bad. The environment felt unsafe and unprofessional. Absolutely do not recommend this place.

Absolute garbage car wash, stay far away. The car wash malfunctioned leading the the car in front of mine getting stuck, and my car ran into it. They refused to pay for the damage or admit fault in any way even though it was clearly their fault. They stopped responding to any calls or emails and I ended up having to pay out of pocket. Garbage car wash, garbage people.
Edit: if you need any further proof of how bad they are, the response below gave me a phone number for an automated line where it's impossible to talk to an actual human. They want me to fill out a form and they will "get back to me", which is what I dealt with for a full year as I tried to get them to pay for my repair. If for some reason Take 5 reads this edit and wants to ACTUALLY help me, feel free to give me the number of somebody that CAN ACTUALLY HELP ME.

I am wondering how you can keep debiting my account when you are often closed not just in Golden but also the Sheridan location. There is no real maintenance going on. It’s happening often so my partner and I are taking our membership business elsewhere.
