JD C.

I requested a quote and GV was near my neighborhood and had competitive prices. I quickly found street parking; dropped off (2) pair of pants to be hemmed and within 2 days they were available for pick up. I tried one pair prior to leaving and the fit was good. The only thing that was a little off-putting was not allowing me to use my 10% YELP discount (because I had alterations done oppose to regular dry cleaning). Other than that, I had a good experience and would bring back more clothing for alterations.

I had my regalia for Graduation for dry cleaning there. When I came home and checked it was torn. It is honestly not a big deal since I had enough time before the graduation. i come back and explainEd to person the issue. She said I was lied to her and I torn it myself (!) Finally they agreed to fix it. I even offered to pay for it and said next time I will check in front of them to avoid this issue in future. When I pick up it again they wrote on my check "Do not lie please " I do not recommend not this place;) even I thought I would use it again. I don't think I will come back

The jacket that was returned

Sent over 20 items to be dry cleaned after reading the good reviews and my suit jacket was returned like this. The matching pants are in a similar condition. Have not heard back from them after messaging. The rest of the items seem fine but will not be going back after spending $150 on cleaning and getting my items damaged. The suit was purchased in august and work only a few times. Very disappointed.

They were able to get all this wine out.
Beth O.

I was out at a bar and the gentleman next to me spilled red wine on my white pants... Like the whole, full glass. I thought these pants were goners and the woman at the counter was even skeptical. When I picked up the pants, by some magic they were able to get a of the wine out. I'm more than thrilled and will be taking all my clothes here from now on!

Sloppy causing bunching in armpit
Kai G.

I dropped off a button down shirt and suit jacket for alterations. Due to the method of sewing, there is tension in the armpits area of both the shirt and jacket. So much so that it pinches when I raise my arms. The arms of the shirt are tight and short, leaving me to struggle to get the buttons done on the sleeves. After the buttons are done, the sleeves ride up from being too short and the tightness of the armpit stitch. The pulling of the armpit stitch on my suit jacket changes the fit, making it bunch on the sides. The shoulder pads have a lumpy appearance. The arms are too long and wide falling past the arms of the shirt and my wrists. The sewing and stitching is just sloppy. I would have waited longer if it meant a better result. I was going to take it back, but I don't trust them to fix it. I should have known when the lady only measured one of my arms for the alterations that this wasn't going to be good. I am just frustrated that I spent $100+ for my new clothes to be destroyed.

Just wanted one crease

The owner called me up and squared away the discount discrepancy and sent me a check refund. Great place, great tailoring.

Did a nice job hemming my cotton/polyester maxi dress for $25 - which is about market rate in the Capitol Hill SE area!

If you need anything dry cleaned, sewed, or cleaned, use Mass Court Cleaners! The staff is so…read morefriendly and they are reasonably priced considering location and popularity. My Experience: I needed to get a comforter cleaned because my washer and dryer are too small to accommodate them. I dropped it off on a Wednesday morning with no issues and picked it up Thursday afternoon. The comforter was perfectly cleaned; there was not even a piece of hair or anything left on it. They even sewed up a hole from the one time I tried to wash my comforter with no extra charge! Whenever I need dry cleaning or anything tricky cleaned, I will 100% use Mass Court Cleaners.

After researching other tailors/dry cleaners in the area as a new resident to the neighborhood, I…read moredecided to give this place a try given that all of the other places have horrible reviews. That being said I'm so glad I came here. I needed some clothes altered and she did a wonderful job. She was very knowledgeable and chatted with me about what I wanted for the hems on the pants I needed tailored and offered really helpful input. Will definitely be a returning and frequent customer for both tailoring and dry cleaning. Also, dropped my clothes off (2 pairs of pants and a shirt) on a Tuesday and they were ready by Saturday morning. I wasn't in a rush to get them back so I was pleased with the timeliness of the service. And finally, yes, this place is expensive. But honestly, I'd rather pay more for a job well done then go anywhere else in the area and have them ruin my clothes. The reviews that are knocking the prices obviously haven't lived in DC long enough, everything here is expensive. That being said, if you're looking for a bargain, I would look elsewhere.
