The people couldn't be more friendly, they do a great job with my laundry and everything comes out just the way I wanted it to. They're very concerned that I will come back and my clothes will not be ready. I try to reassure them that that will not be a proboem at all. It's only happened once. I can't imagine anyone saying anything bad about this location or the people working here, because I found it to be just what I needed.. Joel. B read more

They are very fast and do a great job! I wouldn't take my clothes anywhere else! It doesn't hurt that one employee is super nice, amazing at her job, and an added plus-very beautiful both inside AND out! read more

Best laundromat in the area. The people who work there are meticulous and quick and they are also so kind. 100% recommend this place if you prefer doing drop off laundry - the prices are also unbeatable at $0.75 a pound. read more

217 Laundromat - Laundromat Near Me - New York, New York

Small laundromat but they do Same day pickup, fast and efficient service from my own experience. Best price in NYC. Kind people

Arrived Thursday morning to drop off 8lbs of laundry (was in town for a week) and a jacket for drycleaning. Their minimum was $10 for laundry so my total came out to be $11.90 and the jacket dry cleaning was $25. Originally, she asked if I could pick up the following Monday, however, I told her I was leaving on Saturday so she was really understanding and allowed me to pick up my laundry that same day and my drycleaning at the end of the following day (~5:30PM both times). They accept cash and card and everything was ready when I arrived. No stains or color issues; everything was folded nicely and bagged up. Really happy with my experience here. If I'm ever staying in the area - I would totally come back. Thank you! read more

I have been taking my laundry to this laundromat for over a year and not only do I love their service, I love the staff. They are EXTREMELY friendly. I love this place because: 1. I live very close by and they deliver my finished laundry to my building 2. The prices are extremely competitive. I compared the price of taking a down coat for dry clean + 12 lbs of wash and fold laundry. At this laundromat it cost me $26. At another competing laundromat it cost $45. 3. You can bring your own detergent (if you want) and they will ALWAYS remember to use it 4. They have never lost or messed up my clothes 5. They are SO fast. Laundry dropped off in the AM is returned in the evening 6. They are always smiling I'll be coming here as long as I live next door. I recommend you come here as well. read more

217 Laundromat - Laundromat Near Me - New York, New York

More affordable than other laundromats around the area but you get what you paid for. I've used them a few times and I've had enough of finding articles of clothing with crusty stuff still on it or still smelling of my body spray. read more

Worst possible experience. The owner "lost" my dry cleaning: 3 items of clothing. I kept having to come back every couple of days for a month, asking what was going on. Finally, she told me that it was "lost" and offered me $20 for everything. I told her that was unacceptable and she began to insult me. I then filed two complaints with 311 but they said there was nothing they could do because she didn't respond to any of the letters they sent her. The owner is basically demonic. DO NOT GO HERE. They should be shut down. This was one of the rudest encounters I have ever experienced read more

If you like getting your clothes back I would recommend avoiding this laundromat. It's been 8 days since I dropped my pants off and I'm starting to think she lost them.... read more

One of the few self-service laundromats in the area. I was staying in the neighborhood for a few days and didn't have access to a washing machine. I tried a laundry service, but they charged 70 cents a pound. Maybe I just go through a lot of clothes, but that adds up fast! For a typical week's worth of laundry, it cost me $14. K D Laundromat is the only place I could find that lets you do your own laundry. They charge $1.50 for a washer and $1.50 for 36 minutes on the dryer. For a week's worth of laundry, I spent $4.50 instead of $14. Soap is 75 cents extra, or you can bring your own. K D Laundromat isn't anything fancy (a tiny space without much room to move), but the people were nice. Four stars for patiently exchanging all my loose change into quarters. :) Now I'm saving $10 a week, which I can put towards something more fun than laundry! read more

did a wash and fold. I asked for 3 things to be done and they failed at all of them: 1. separate the whites and dark clothes. I already separated the clothes and gave them 2 separate bags. they came back in one bag and clearly were washed as one load. 2. I gave them a shirt and said please don't dry this shirt. of course, they dried it. 3. I gave them 3 oxford shirts that were separate from the laundry bags. I asked them to dry clean them. what did they do? wash and dry them for me to find at the bottom of the laundry bag, all wrinkled. one more thing: the clothes don't smell like fresh laundry. not sure if they use cheap detergent or what, but I like my laundry to smell like fresh laundry. not here. do NOT go here. read more

Woah, I missed this place the first time around on Yelp, because the price ratings were all wrong (how can $0.75/lb laundry be rated as "$$$$" on Yelp?). I dropped about 25 lb of clothes off yesterday afternoon for wash/fold and they were ready for pickup by this morning. Could've had it done same-day, but I wasn't in a rush. There I knew this place was a keeper - all clean, great-smelling, folded, and most importantly SORTED. The previous place where I took my laundry (Skirts and Suits) basically threw all of my underwear and socks at the bottom of the bag, and piled a bunch of unsorted clothing on top. 217 Laundry (formerly K&D Laundry) in contrast has surpassed all of my expectations. Pros: - Least expensive wash/fold in the area ($0.75/lb) - Clothes come back sorted, and underwear/socks folded Cons: - No delivery service (could explain the lower rate they charge) Neutral: - Some of my "no-iron" shirts came back wrinkled. Probably have been sitting in the dryer for a while. But that I can live with. Unsorted clothes I can't. read more

I've taken loads of laundry to them for a few weeks now and they've been wonderful every time! All of my clothes, blankets and towels have come back perfectly fine. They're timely and affordable. The cost of washing blankets and comforters is higher but I'm frankly not familiar with the general pricing for those items so it could just be me. read more

Cash only, really nice employees, great value for the price per lb. it costs a few dollars extra to separate the whites vs. colors. Clothes are always perfect and not shrunken or damaged. read more

Let me start by saying that laundry is a personal thing . You pay the price ,because you entrust that person with your items ,( and you know what). If it's for the pig , then why not , ... give it to the farmer , .. who cares .Why not. After doing several loads of laundry myself, I finally caved in to the wife 's pressure to have it done. ... Big mistake . !!! My laundry came out with the smell I sent it in. Swirled in a pseudo mixture of less than par detergent. I could still smell the odor from the gym I went to. One might say that you naturally stink , but in my defense, I have done loads of laundry . This is after giving Maria a $5 tip for her amicable attitude . To fellow patrons , this is a ploy to get you back there every week since it' s convenient. Don't fall for it. read more

Very insulting older Asian lady who works here. Also my dry cleaning came back with a (nailpolish?) stain. I used to bring my laundry here as well, but I'm tired of the woman making nasty comments about my appearance and my neighbor as well. To hell with her, no more chances. read more

The place is small and quite chaotic. They don't accept bills or cards. It's self clean and the woman working there is nice but has a limited grasp of English. read more

It was my first time using this laundromat because my usual place was closed due to COVID-19. The people seemed relatively nice, the price was fair, and I was happy with my experience until I got home and noticed stains on 4 of my nice shirts and a pair of my nice shorts. Upset because $200+ of clothes were ruined, I went back to ask the owner if she could try and get the stains out as well as refund the cost I paid for my laundry. The owner proceeded to tell me that she is not responsible for the clothes and won't try and get the stains out because she didn't inspect them before washing them. Eventually she admitted it could have been their fault, but she did not know for sure and won't do anything else to make it right. It is disappointing how rude this business owner is to customers and won't take responsibility when mistakes are made. I warn anyone who is trying this place for a first time. I would recommend going to Best Touch Cleaners on 24th between 2nd and 3rd. That is my go to place, the people there do a great job and have never ruined my clothes. read more

See all

I've been using this laundromat for 6 months and I love it! .75 cents per pound and you simply drop off your clothes, get a slip, and return the next day for a bag of washed, sorted, and folded laundry. I bring my laundry basket every other week or so, and it's usually between $12-$15. You cannot beat that value for all the time it saves you! The employees are so sweet as well. Highly recommend to anyone! read more

Nightmare. The laundromat stained my clothing and refused to take responsibility or refund me. Terrible customer service and service in general. Didn't even try to fix it. Super upset since the clothing was nice. Do not go here. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. read more

No commitment kept, closed on agreed pick up day and no indication of opening hours. Stress full on the last day of being in the city before traveling back home. No clue on the quality of laundering but like this there is no second try. read more

I had started coming here because It was the cheapest place near me and they seemed to have decent service. They then lost my dry cleaning once, I went there and went through all the bags and found it on the floor 2 weeks later. I thought it was a fluke and they lost my dry cleaning again, this time I didn't find it. I'd rather pay up and not lose my clothing. read more

Best price in the area and clothes always come back in great condition, same day!

DO NOT GO HERE! This place's name has changed to 217 (for anyone who is looking on google right now.) I chose this Laundromat to clean my delicate bedspread. I saw that this location had rave reviews, so I decided to give it a try. When I first arrived, the owner (who's name escapes me) was very lovely and very honest. She told me what needed to be cleaned and what/how I could clean other items in order to save money. I really appreciated her honesty and her kindness. So why am I so unpleased? I went in last thursday. The owner ASSURED me that the comforter would be ready by monday. With that being said, I stayed at my parents' in long island for the weekend. I came back to the city ready to relax and sleep under my clean blanket. I found it strange that I hadn't heard from the owner (who promised to call me when the comforter would have been ready.) She told me that I'd have to wait until tuesday afternoon. I spent my first night at home with no covers. The next day, I called in the afternoon to check on the comforter. THIS is where I started getting REALLY pissed off. The owner was nowhere to be found. Instead, her employee, a moron with a poor command of the English language and how to conduct business answered. She was COMPLETELY incompetent and dumber than a box of rocks. It's not even so much about how poorly she speaks English, it's the fact that she has NO idea how to do her job and gives terrible customer service! You may be thinking "how can you say that? She's from another culture!" EASY! I'm a Spanish professor, so I KNOW that her moronic incompetencies wasn't due to a language barrier. I attempted to speak with her in both languages over the phone. She promised that her boss would call me back in a few hours. NOTHING! I called back today and "latin american Igor" (as I like to refer to her) answered yet again, more idiotic than ever. She said "she no here, I no know nothing. Maybe she call you back later." Um, MAYBE?!?!? MAYBE!!! I gave the bitch one last shot. I called back later and demanded that her boss call me by the rest of the day or I'd leave TERRIBLE feedback on yelp. I told the woman this in both English AND Spanish. The woman is even more retarded in her first language!!! She was like "What?" and I said "This is unacceptable! I'm waiting for this and sleeping on a bed with no cover for over a week! If your boss doesn't call me by the end of the day, I will make sure that nobody comes to your store!" The bitch hung up on me! When I finally went to pick up my things, there were three people there that looked like chickens with their heads cut off. Not to mention, it looked a lot dirtier than the last time. Long story short, unless you are an early 20 something bro that can't be bothered to do your laundry and don't care when/how it comes back, AVOID THIS PLACE!!!! read more

Cheapest in the area, fastest in the area, friendliest in the area. Have been regularly using them for almost a year with consistently great results! read more

Have been going here almost 2 years. They do a perfect job:) very nice people! Such a luxury to receive a bag of clean and folded laundry!

Short version: Highly recommended for wash + fold / dry cleaning. Nice owner, good prices, open long hours, 7 days. Long Version: A great wash + fold place - best prices in the neighborhood by far, quick turnaround and good quality. The owner is extremely nice. During Hurricane Sandy (the block had no power) she was actually the only business still open - taking laundry uptown to a location with power in her car, and then back downtown for customers to pick up, for the same price. This was quite helpful for us having no power for the week. She is also open late (9pm) every night during the week, and open both Sat + Sun, very helpful if you're working long hours. She does dry cleaning as well - also the best price in the area, and fine quality. I was very comfortable taking suits / etc there. She checks it out herself when it comes back to make sure nothing is amiss. Note it's not called "KD Laundromat" anymore - just "217 Laundromat" read more

Awesome place! Really picky about dry cleaning and they get it done perfectly! And they are super cheap by NYC standards.

Best wash and fold in the area. Fast, inexpensive. They are incredibly nice. Cash only. Not a problem. This is a small, lean operation. Never had an issue and have been taking all my laundry there for 3 years. read more

Horrible! Worst cleaners ever! You get what you pay for. The clothes smell worst that when I sent them. My cleaners is always closed by the time I get home so decided to go here, close to work. Big mistake. First time clothes had a musty smell. Worst than prior to "cleaning". Second time same thing and the clothes had a dingy look. Looked dirtier. So I thought maybe it's done deliberately to keep me from using their business. I finally confronted the owner and before I could finish my statement she started yelling at me. "You don't like...take you clothes somewhere else!". Once she got quiet I tried to explain why I was dissatisfied and she wouldn't let me finish, yelling over me. "I been here many years...you don't like, go somewhere else." So I guess that's what she wanted all along? P.S. I deliberately put a hidden stain on a garment to see if it would return with the stain. Stain still on. Took to different cleaners and stain was remove. read more

I take a bus to this place because it is the best laundromat I have ever gone to. I could easily go to a laundromat that is closer but I will never do that again. 217 laundromat does a great job on the washes, never shrinking anything and they even fold all of the clothes after. The dry cleaning service is spectacular too. Thank you! read more

Terrible place - had to go back 2x for them to get some stains out. I finally gave up and just took it to a new cleaner. Highly unprofessional for important/expensive dress or suits. Not sure about pound laundry - saw a lot of students, so think its fine if you are going in w. Student budget and expectations. read more

This is a great place. First, the woman running the place is friendly and affable. She will wave to me as I walk down 26th Street - no laundry, just walking by. Now, the place itself is quite small, almost claustrophobic. However the prices are so ultra reasonable here to have your laundry done, it would be foolish and a waste of time to do your own laundry. No need to provide detergent and softeners (as in some neighborhood laundry places) and the results are great. They also do excellent dry cleaning, one day service. I can't imagine any downside to this place and highly recommend it. read more

Desperately needed to get two bags full of laundry done (without paying the expensive hotel laundry costs) after travelling for a couple of weeks. 30lbs for $22. Very happy with this service. read more

Crappy building (who cares) with great service and great prices. The Asian lady who is always there is very nice. She pays attention to details and has not ruined any clothing since I've used her. In fact, one time I accidentally put a couple no-dry items in with the normal wash and she caught them before they were thrown in the dryer. I highly recommend this place. read more

I went there today. The service is awful, the few things I asked for I got no answer so I just grabbed my stuff and went to a different place. The price is average is the same I paid later. read more

They have the best prices on folded laundry and dry cleaning. They open earlier and close later than any other laundry place around. Such friendly staff, I highly recommend this place. read more

I brought my family's laundry here while we staying at Hotel Giraffe, about three blocks away. Great service and a fair price. Certainly much cheaper than using the hotel's in-house laundry service. More than once, I was able to drop of clothes in the evening and pick them up before the laundry closed later that same night. read more

Nothing special. I had laundry done and it was ready when I expected it to be ready. I was not a huge fan of how they folded my clothes as everything was not placed in groups together. but like nothing that will make me not go there. 3 stars - A-OK. read more

Quick, reasonable, friendly, and my clothes look great. I dropped off this morning and picked up after work. $10 later, I have a closet full of clean clothes. I am not doing my own laundry anymore, I think! read more
