However it is the most convenient laundromat to my apartment and I when I can get the machines working I haven't had any issues with my laundry.

After reading several reviews that are quite simply, erroneous, I wanted to provide a factual…read morereview 1 - Customers use a plastic card to use the machines. One pays a 4.00 deposit (key word - deposit). This is simply so the business gets the card back when one is done. The card is re-loadable. It also is easier for the customer - you add a set dollar amount and carry on and do your laundry. When done, simply turn the card in and your $4.00 deposit is refunded. They do not accept credit cards or debit cards so ensure you have cash. For the record, credit cards charge businesses a fee to use them. Some businesses choose not to have to deal with accepting debit or credit cards - that's life. 2 - Children do need to behave when in the business. As is typical in all businesses, one watches their child/children if they choose to bring them to a business with them. This is not a jungle gym, it is a laundry mat. Gard's employees are not babysitters. The laundry carts are not there for your child to use as amusement. 3 - Gard's has been a valued and well respected business in Crown Point for many years (well over 30). They are not a library (in regard to someone commenting the magazines were a couple years old), not a babysitting service, and not your servant. You are coming to a business to do laundry or to drop off/pick up laundry. 4 - As with all businesses, they have open and close times. They also have a cut off time - the time the last load of the day needs to be in to ensure that they are able to close on time. If you work, I will assume, your place of employment also has an open and close time and rules about those times. Therefor, it should make sense to one that Gard's has set times also. 5 - The parking lot is shared. There are painted numbers on the pavement as let's face it, a laundry may have more customers than a mortgage place (next door) and the building owner has numbered the parking slots. So yes, if one parks where they should not, an employee may say something to you. 6 - I've used Gard's laundry and dry cleaning services for many years. The place is always clean and service is pleasant.

Went here because it was more convenient to the errands i was going to tun today or so i thought …read more They're at least a dollar more on each machine . So into a big machine ( 7 bucks !) go My clothes . I choose delicate wash . My first clue this wasnt going to be good was the light for " quick wash " lights up . Then an 11 minute timer . I just paid seven bucks for a wash i didn't even want not to mention there's no way my clothes are going to be clean in a quick wash . I try to explain this to the attendant who insists im going to get the wash i paid for . When the worker yells you @ im not the one who programs the machine snd I'm not trying to yell at you ( my response well Yes you really are ) anyway not much i can do My clothes are in the washer ... i also drop Off a blouse for dry cleaning and was trying to show where a stain was and was told ok so its a stain in a very mocking loud voice .., ok walk away ... so the washing machine is running , running , hey its been stuck on two minutes for a while .., lady assures me no Problem it happens .., again i just walk away . So ten minutes later she comes out to my car waving a ten dollar bill . She had taken it upon herself to move my clothes from the washer they were in to two regular washers to spin . ??! Great ! Not what i ensued for my clothes as i had two brand new crocheted baby blankets . I ask well are my clothes clean ? Ahe assures me that my clothes have gone through a full cycle Anyway i go in the laundry mat my clothes are now soaking wet . Like i can still wring water out .., she insists theyll dry . I put the clothes on four dryers , one hot , one medium one low and one delicate . I spend seven bucks and a lot more time just getting the clothes dry , so the ten bucks she returned did no good because i almost spent that much drying on top of the seven for the washer. A trip to starbucks and the local pizzeria for a slice ; come back to still wet clothes . More quarters .,, take clothes out .., these clothes look and smell no better than they did when i put them in the washer . If thats what a full cycle there does , save your money and time . I threw away two shirts and the blankets shrunk .

My clothes were able to wash quickly. The longest load that I had washed for 40 minutes and everything for me dried within 25 minutes. This place will get you in and out quickly. I will say they are a bit pricey but they do have cheaper washing machines available that start at $2.50. It's nice that this place is 24 hours. The people that were in there were nice main members of the neighborhood. As you wash your clothes you can walk over to the nearby trail. Or sit outside they have tables and seats outside. Around the corner they have a dog washing area. Separate from the laundromat. It's good that they have it separate.
