It's kids doing the interior cleaning and someone needs to train them on the difference between activity and result.
Waterway is the easy button right by my home so I go even knowing I'll be disappointed and the conversation ALWAYS goes like this: "um, the console still has dirt and spills visible" "but I wiped it" "okay thanks but it's not clean" "but I wiped it, do you want me to do it again" "well yeah, I'd like it to be clean" followed by a half-assed rewipe that still doesn't do the job. Same convo on vacuuming. Waterway, its not my job to train your staff on how to achieve a result and I invariably leave pissed. So be warned: Your car will be 40% cleaner but it will not be clean no matter the package level you buy or the amount of money you tip. I've tried every permutation and it simply has no effect on (the crappy) end result.

terrible experience. i used to work at a car wash so i understand the ins and outs. the exterior car wash didn’t clean much. then i went to use the vacuums (mind you no one was there) and someone came up to tell me i couldn’t use them. i then asked if i could please use them this one time since i didn’t know and wouldn’t have paid for an exterior wash if i would’ve known that (as no other car wash is like that) and they told me i would have to drive to another location. it seemed very ridiculous to just not let you use the vacuum after your wash. won’t be coming back.

Usually they do an ok job washing cars. Don’t expect the floor or interior panels to be thoroughly cleaned. Most recently went to sign up for a month and got stuck because the machine was down. Had to leave without a car wash.
