I have been meaning to get my car washed since I got back in town and noticed some birdies had left me some presents. It was a nice day today and I was in the Gambrills area and quickly remembered Auto Spa. I had a monthly membership prior and loved taking my car to get washed often. It's not that hard to vacuum the car but somehow my back floors didn't get vacuumed at all. To be fair I must mention that it wasn't a plan trip so I did have groceries in my car but I made sure they were on the seats and not on the floor nothing was on the floor besides the mats and some food debris. It seems like they have quality control because I noticed a young lady walking to each car and inspecting it before beeping the horn and telling whoever the owner was to come on. Wasn't high quality though because she missed the dirt that I'm guessing was dropped on top of my center console as if the vacuum was turned off, before taking out of my car. I had a big tip waiting because there was quite a bit of dirt on my floor still although I went ahead and picked up most of the big items and moved my seat to get things underneath as well such as nail files, pens, things that had fallen in between the cracks. read more

They didn't even try. Horrible job inside and out. Tried to give them multiple chances on multiple occasions. The "platinum" option is no different than the basic. Place is a waste of money and they do a terrible job. read more

Gambrills Auto Spa - Carpet in between back seats. - Car Wash Near Me - Gambrills, Maryland

I went to The Lube Center car wash and ordered the Gold Package, which includes interior cleaning. I understand this is not meant to be a full detail, but the interior was clearly rushed and incomplete. The gear shift area and the armrest were not wiped down at all, crumbs and debris were still visible. Aside from the floor mats being vacuumed, the rest of the interior looked largely untouched. The outside of my car looks great, so credit where it's due there. However, the interior service did not meet expectations for the package I paid for. It seemed like the staff was overwhelmed due to how crowded it was, but that shouldn't come at the expense of quality. Very disappointing. read more

I've been trying to cancel my car wash membership since February 2026, to no avail. In fact, they confirmed (via email from customer service) that they would do so. Well, here it is 8 April 2026 and they are still deducting the monthly amount from my account. I had to contact my bank to issue me a new debit card. These people aren't just morally corrupt but straight out gangsters. Please, please do not waste your time/money not to mention the inconvenience of putting a hold on your account...DON'T FALL FOR ANY PROMOTIONAL NONSENSE THEY MAY OFFER. Don't fall for the okie doke of them saying, Oh! you can cancel at any time. read more

They give you a free vacuum ! I washed my car for $11 bucks. Good deal thank you ! I like all the locations here in md

I got the gold wash valued at 40 bucks. The young lady at the cashier desk was amazing. Totally sweet and kind. However the Carwash was a waste of money. The wipe down was horrible. I had to re vacuum my vehicle. It was still dirty inside. I am totally pissed. The quality of the wash isn't worth the price point. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else where it will be done correctly the FIRST TIME. NEVER AGAIN. read more

Perfect place to get your car washed outside & inside! And best part. It was efficient and took no time to get back in my car! They also offer military discount which is always a plus for veterans! I highly recommend you come, check it out & you will likely get the monthly membership... second car or more come with special discount. For all the staff does, the price is great & worth every penny .. great value for your money! read more

For months as a MEMBER I have complained that they do a very poor job of washing rubber floor mats. The majority of the time, they only spray water. Of course when it dries, it is still muddy. They installed mat cleaners, the rare occasion they use the clearner outcome is still marginal. Therefore the 2 STAR rating read more

I went in for a quick outside wash. On my way to cinnaholic. Service was quick and my car was cleaner than it has been in a while. I haven't seen my wheels this clean in a while...and all with a hands-free wash. I must admit I was impressed. The only thing i did not like was the 20 price just for the outside. I thought that was pricey considering you don't event get your car vacuumed with that. I would come back if I am ever in the area. read more

My wife and I have had top of the line car washing subscriptions for our cars for years at Auto Spa. At first they did a really great job. Then after COVID the quality of service declined sharply and now it seems like it's just getting worse and worse with every wash. To be very clear, I'm not someone who enjoys complaining. But it's justified here. Even the slightest comment triggers a barrage of excuses from the staff. 1) The wash water in the car wash sometimes literally smells like someone took a crap in it. It's disgusting. 2) The vacuuming is really bad and is getting worse. Even on days when hardly anyone is getting car washes. So it's not an issue of being overworked 3) They routinely do not wipe down surfaces and windows. I'll drive out of the building and the sun hits the window and dash revealing dust and smears everywhere. The empty cargo area of my car has hard plastic and they open the hatch lean in and when done literally all the dust and dirt is still there. I bring the car home and clean it again. 4) They now claim they cannot wipe down vinyl seats. 5) Both my wife and I have experienced aggressive behaviors from the cleaners. Including foul language in Spanish. Are they calling me p*ta and pend*jo? Or a coworker? 6)Three times they broke my flashlight holder until I removed it before each sloppily done wash. We're currently looking for a new car wash provider. read more

I purchased a basic membership and was charged for a few months at the platinum rate. The last 2 times I have taken my car I have been dissatisified with the service. For $70, you would think they would at least take the trash out of the vehicle or dust the dashboard. I have complained, called and written to the management and am requesting a refund from the last month's membership (haven't received a response yet). Oh, and I definitely cancelled that membership and would not recommend it to anyone. read more

Crappy service, the wipe down was worse than the just letting dry on its own. The inside of glass they must have used a a dirty rag to wipe it down. For $33 dollars I feel like they should have at least tried to clean it a bit. Long story short after the worst car wash I have ever had, I spent another $299 at another professional auto retailer to get all the grim and oil off the I dose of the windows. I do not recommend this place, the help is worthless. read more

This location is about 30 minutes away from my house and about 15 minutes away from my job. Since I take my car to be serviced at the Lube Center, which I did today, I get a $10 card for the Auto Spa. Unfortunately, the one in Gambrills is the closest location, but the good news, they are currently building two locations closer to home, so that is something to look forward to! The cashiers at this location are always friendly. You're always greeted with a smile and a friendly salutation. The service is fast and consistent. They may miss a spot here and there, but for the most part, my car always looks 20 times better than it did when I came in. I am definitely looking forward for to the locations closer to my home opening soon, so that I can sign up for the monthly care washing service that they offer. read more

I have passed this car wash a million times and decided to try it today. The car wash attendant, Roy greeted me with a smile and provided excellent customer service while explaining the car wash menu in great detail. I took his recommendation and selected the platinum package, and I was not disappointed. The waiting area was very nice and they had a refreshment area. The fish tanks were an excellent touch that enhanced my relaxation as I waited for the interior of my car to be completed. I was very pleased with the service and my car was sparkling. The inside was clean and smelled delicious. Roy had them mix different fragrances. Honestly, I have a membership at another car wash but not completely satisfied with their work. Also, the locations are not convenient. I'm seriously thinking about moving my membership to Auto Spa after having this awesome experience. read more

I paid for the gold service which was $40. Very disappointed in this service. Ended up having to clean the inside of my vehicle once I got home. Dust on my dashboard, crumbs in the cup holders and front and back seats. I opened up the cup holder so they can at least vacuum it. All they did was close it..... I also had to windex my front windshield. Better off going next door and cleaning it yourself for a cheaper price. read more

Disappointed once again. I spoke to a manager after the first not-so-great experience. She was genuinely apologetic, offered a free month of membership and she assured me they would do better. I declined because I'm not looking for a free wash, I just want it done properly when I pay for one (and tip!). I decided to try them one more time and they failed. Even talked to the cashier about my last experience hoping the message would trickle down. She too was apologetic and concerned. It didn't help. Like the first time, the exterior looked great, the floor mats and windows were cleaned and everything was vacuumed. However, the dash and console wipe down is pretty nonexistent. Well, they do wipe it down, but, for every dust particle that's removed, towel lint or dust from a previous vehicle replaces it so you walk out with your dash and console looking the same. There's no point in going back. Even when you make them aware that you've had a bad experience, they do nothing to improve. Note to manager who replies to these reviews: Don't bother contacting me. I've stated my issues here and I'm not coming back. read more

Honestly this is one of the worst full service car washes. Every time I pay for the gold wash, my interior is left dusty and as dirty as I turned it in. They didn't even put the fragrance in it today. They don't care and and it shows. read more

Gambrills Auto Spa - $40 wash :/ - Car Wash Near Me - Gambrills, Maryland

Huge letdown- I came back for a full cleaning inside & out and left with a basic car wash. I was pointing out all the places on the door and the guy just kept smiling and calling me sweetheart. I tried to wipe it down myself but he laughed and said no like I was kidding. He finally sprayed one part of the door- it all pooled in the cup holders underneath and I had to clean it out after. They didn't do the door jams, the doors, the wheels, the dash, or the seats. They vacuumed my carpets and said done deal. After repeated attempts to get them to fix it, I just left. I heard great things about Laurel Car Wash, going there next. read more

Plants, landscaping stones, water falls, Koi ponds, complimentary beverages...What's not to like? I've come here about 4 times and received warm greetings & good service. I order the Super exterior wash (if my car is full of shopping bags) or the $25 Silver wash which includes tire dressing and fragrance. I've been pleased with each wash. This auto spa's service is solid & prices are competitive. Additionally, they have never forgotten to provide the fragrance that I select. I do a once over & identify missed areas. They address those areas without any drama. My gun metal gray ride is always glossy when I leave. I've read some of the critical reviews and I don't think it's not fair to expect a full auto detailing service for $25. I'm considering getting on a monthly plan for the summer months, but haven't pulled the trigger yet. Auto Spa's systematic process does takes time... I tend to stop in on sunny weekends and it takes about 35-40 minutes to complete. Don't come here if you're in a rush. read more

Used them for years. I always get the next to highest service. Not a problem so far. Pleased with results. Worth the money.

Great service and price. Staff works hard and efficiently. Monthly membership is reasonable and has advantage in separate line.

First, and last time I use them. At first I was impressed that their were 6 guys to clean my car! I figured wow my car is gonna be super clean! Nope. They did a horrible job cleaning the interior of my car. They dowsed the floor mats, shook the water off a bit and put them back in my jeep! The car was left half wet on the outside and the windows smeared. They didn't even wipe down the dashboard or the inside doors. I had to pull out and dry the mats myself and finish cleaning the interior. All for $35! Never again. Save your money! read more

I paid for the highest was they didn't vaccin well or wipe down I just moved back to Maryland it kinda disappointed me because this was my go to car wash and never gave me problems read more

Had a friend tell me about the 'Gambrills Auto Spa' and how clean her car was after the visit. So I decided to make a stop. I got there around 6PM and it was dark. They have a drive up kiosk, two lanes, and an indoor auto bay area. At the drive up I could not tell if anyone was there as the kiosk was dark, no lights inside the kiosk, and while the shop area was light up I didn't see anyone. So I parked off to the side and walked up to the kiosk. Just as I got there a lady opened the door, which startled me a little as you couldn't make out anything through the darkened windows. Ok, they were open. I return to my car, drive into the right-side lane where the lady is waiting for me to determine the type service I would like. If I remember correctly, there were three service tiers. 1st one in the $20 range, 2nd one in the $30 range, and the 3rd one was just over $50. I chose the middle tier and she charged me $27; no idea why the $3 discount. But I didn't debate it either. You, the driver, take the car through a car wash. The speed is a bit faster than other car washes I've been to however, this one seemed about 1/2 longer than other car washes. Once through, you do a 180 degree turn into the auto bay. Here you exit the car as a squad of guys pull out the mats, and clean/vacuum everything. My windows, both front and back were really dirty from dust buildup so I was looking forward to seeing out of them again. While the guys are cleaning the car, you are inside at a water/coffee/tea bar. It's serve yourself. There are two large, round, fish tanks rising up from the floor and you can watch everything being done to your car through the floor to ceiling plate glass. There are his & her bathrooms, too. In less than nine minutes I was being waived at which indicates the car is ready. Wheels were shining, rims I can see myself in, a vacuumed car, and windows I can see through. I'll be back in about a month! Excellent Job, 'Gambrills Auto Spa'! read more

I wish I would have read the reviews before stopping here. First, the signage is horrible! Second, I thought it was full service and not the automatic car wash. I paid $40 and gave a tip. It was a total waste of money. The car still has the spots on it what drove me to get it cleaned, I had to go somewhere else to vacuum my car and it was dripping water in various spots. I will never go here again! I could have paid $12 and received more. read more

i remember when this location first opened, and the quality then I would've always given 5stars for overall service.

Came here on 4/18/2023 for an oil change. I had previously taken my car to a shop to get new tires and a wheel alignment, and when I left that shop there was a sensor hanging off my car. I didn't notice it until I was home and I was going to get an oil changed anyway. Went to Auto Spa, and my technician Curtis was so friendly and was able to tell me what exactly the sensor was for, was able to plug it up and assure me it was now good to go, and also offered that if it kept giving me issues I could come back and they would take care of it when they topped off my fluids, etc. Overall great, trustworthy experience. Thank you so much Curtis, if I can request you when I come back next time, I will! read more

I pulled up unsure of whether or not they offered a hand wash. When I saw it was only machine wash I started to leave but the facility was so busy I was having a difficult time getting out of line. Once at the booth, I expressed my concerns to the attendant about my brand new vehicle being black and asked about the possibly of swirls, scratches etc. She did offer to help me get out of line if I really needed to but assured me there was nothing that could cause any of those issues bc of the high quality of the materials that actually come in contact with the vehicle. I really really wish I'd of listened to my gut‍. Now I'm at a detail shop about to spend awhole lot of money for paint correction aswell as having to do without my vehicle for a couple days. I hope this helps someone else.... STAY AWAY FROM MACHINE WASHES IF YOU HAVE A BLACK VEHICLE!!! read more

I have tried this location multiple times and stay disappointed. For the money you spend plus tip, the service should be much better.

Going to say that I "had" a membership at this point. Signed up for the Platinum Package membership, first wash was immaculate, and it's been a let down every time since. Inside is a quick wipe with a rag and vacuum of the floor but anything aside from that, i.e. windows, vacuuming a seat back, cleaning out a cup holder, won't happen. Things got worse once I took my vehicle in and had a large swipe across the hood, which wasn't there prior. (To me it looked like one of the hanging cloth had a significant amount of grit to it and came across the hood). I caught it before leaving and brought it up to the staff. The shop manager Roy came up and offered to try some remedies. I will give him that he did try several things, none of which fixed the issue more than mildly masking it. I was given an explanation of how the machines work and that it couldn't possibly be any of the equipment as nothing goes over that area, but when you go through you watch the hanging cloth come across the entire length of the vehicle. I was told there would be a review of cameras, etc. to see if I came in with it or if it was caused by something. To date I haven't heard anything and believe I won't hear from anyone. Took a couple weeks and thought why not give them another shot and went yesterday (3/21/23) and it was by far the worse wash I've had there. Floor mats barely vacuumed, you could see where they wiped down the dash in a small area, and more damage to the passenger side in the similar pattern as what is on the hood. At that point it became why bother with it anymore as they pride themselves more on how many cars they can service in a month than having some sort of quality. I would not recommend this location for even your basic needs of a car wash. Hit the local high school charity wash and you're likely to get a better wash than what you'd get here. read more

They don't clean the inside of the car at all. It's insane. Why have vacuums and act like you're cleaning the inside if you're only going to clean off the floor mats? Left all the kid crumbs all over the seats and didn't vacuum inside At all. Going to stop coming here. $40 to clean my Subaru Forester and tip and all they do is run it thru the automated car wash. read more

Very nice car wash overall if your in the area. The wait can defiantly be long which is why I rate them 4/5 but I understand the demand. Overall my car was super clean and also smelled fresh. The prices are about market as well and very fair for a quick wash and quick interior cleaning. I'll defiantly be coming back again if I'm in the area once again. read more
