It's hard to get excited about laundry, especially since it's my least favorite domestic chore. But this simple and clean coin laundry is as good as it gets...and that's especially awesome in Belgium because every other laundry place I've been to is as bad as it gets. For 12 Euros I washed two loads (30 minutes) and dried those loads in two separate dryers (10 minutes + another 10 minutes for the jeans and towels together). Finishing all my laundry in under an hour in Belgium is a small miracle. And this is possible because the washing machines are new and high efficiency, and the dryers are the awesome hot air kind that ACTUALLY DRY YOUR CLOTHES instead of the standard Belgian crock pots used for dryers that just cook your clothes for two hours.
Furthermore, the shop has great hours for Belgium (everyday from 7a to 10:30p), is very close to the U Gent dorms, and is conveniently located next to two (horrible) grocery stores and several other shops (that are usually closed, of course). I'll be taking all my dirty clothes business to Green Wash from now on! read more
