    This place can be hit or miss. I’ve paid a lot of money for a car wash that was not the greatest. Today’s experience was excellent from beginning to end. The greeter (Michael? I think) offered a month long special that was incredibly well priced. Then he upgraded me to the “whole thing” and offered trunk and matt cleaning. Tyler and his crew were friendly and did a great job. Even the worker at the desk inside was friendly and helpful all around. If this place was this consistent with their service I would have a year membership. 11/10 today though!

    I went to this car wash yesterday and paid $32 for a hand wash, expecting a thorough cleaning. Instead, they rushed through it in just a few minutes. The windows were still dirty, the seats were barely vacuumed, and overall the job was done very poorly. When I pointed out the dirt, they tried again but still did a rushed, careless job. Honestly, if I had known the service was like this, I would have gone somewhere else or even washed the car myself — it would have been cleaner and cheaper. Very disappointing, I would not recommend this place.

    I purchased a hot wax express today for $17. Attached are pictures of what the back of my SUV looks like after coming out of the car wash. It looks filthy, which is a bummer. I would recommend going elsewhere.
