Love this place! So used to coin op. I hate carrying change and I drop it all over - so a reloadable card I keep in my wallet is super convenient. The place is nice and spacious and the machines are super efficient too! I've never needed help from an attendant but there is ALWAYS an attendant on the floor. Plus, the bathroom is nice! I took 2 stars away because of the parking and/or their neighbor. There's nothing wrong with the parking itself, but I've been b*tched at by people who train at the CrossFit place next door. Tapping on my window, yelling, and staring. I don't even park in their reserved spots. Definitely a turn off for me. And keeps me from wanting to go back. Bummer. read more

Our home Washer broke down and the pile of cloths were getting larger. Was able to do an 8loader washer and get all clothes cleaned in one shot. Used it for first time and got help from staff on how to get started. Place was comfortable with seats, and I was able to catch up on my book reading while the load was going. Not too crowded. There is room to fold. Floors were clean and maintained. read more

Anything you can all do about people hogging up all the carts? This place is getting busier and people take carts and keep them by their side, that never happened before. Very frustrating Other than this, the place is great read more

This is a very peaceful laundry place, my boyfriend and I have been coming here for a few months and we've always had the chance to find washer and dryer. We go midday during the week, and even recently on Black Friday, there's always space and machines available. The machines are a bit pricey but the space is modern with Charger plugs, Usb plugs, and UBC plugs to charge your phone/laptop read more

Okay, I've been coming here more often because our washer broke. I recommend coming here because of how clean it is and the amount of washers and dryers. Everytime, I come here I contemplate not coming back. Today, a customer was retching in the bathroom for 30 min and slamming and kicking machines. When another concerned customer asked her if she's okay then she yelled we were all harassing her. Mind you I saw an employee 20 min before making the rounds to sanitize the washers. He could call the cops from a distance and not confront her. But he disappeared!! Last time, some little kids were kicking all the machines and messing with the customers laundry. The employees ignored them even though they were climbing everywhere. What would have happened if they had fell from the couches that they were jumping off of? I'm just concerned that the equipment will eventually be damaged if there isn't at least a little care at this place. Let me add that if it's not a positive review don't bother leaving one. Since they just respond with little empathy or care about your experience. If your employees were actually around maybe they could tell people not to hit the washers and scare customers. I won't be coming back. read more

Laundromat is very clean and lots of seating space while you wait. Staff is very nice and helpful as well

Another customer that's impressed by the number and different sizes of washers. And, like others, I notice how clean the store always is. As are the machines, which, after all, are what comes in contact with our garments, blankets, pillows, etc. Charlie also went out of his way to give me some personalized service, showing his focus on the customers. I've yet to be there at their 4AQM9!!!) opening time, but it's good to know they may accommodate us if we need to do some "emergency" cleaning of sleeping bags, camp bedding, etc. before heading out to the wilds early in the morning. Well done! read more

I came to do laundry for my oversized items like duvet covers, floor mats and rugs. I haven't been to a laundromat for a very long time. It took me a few minutes to figure out how machines work. The place was clean. The lady working there kept wiping, organizing and made sure the place was tidy. She was also very helpful with my questions. Price seems to be high but I don't know how competitive it was. It's not often I need to wash oversized items but when I do, I will be back. read more

Very clean space! The location has seating, multiple size options for laundry, and best of all, it's cashless!

When I was searching for a laundro-mat, I had no idea I was going to find one like this! This is the most mindful laundro-mat I've ever been to, especially during covid-times. I was so impressed lol. It is a coinless laundro-mat. The card machine is in the back. You select how much you want to add onto the card, and then use that card for the machines. Note that the card machine will only accept $5 minimum, so that was a downer because I ended up needing to add an additional $5 when I was only wanting to add $1.5. I think maybe that was because I used cc to pay. I think if you use cash, there shouldn't be a minimum? There are 2, 3, 6, and 8-load machines. The 2-load machines are in the front. I didn't know, and I used a 3-load machine in the back.. could have saved a couple bucks. The pricing is based on load and temperature. You use the dials on the machine to select the temperature you want, and the pricing changes along with it. For the 3-load washer I used, it started at around $3 for cold water and was around $4.5 for hot water. The dryer is $1.29 for a 24-minute cycle. I thought I would have needed more time, but it dried all of my throws perfectly! My favorite part is that they have a free pre-wash sanitation cycle. It is a 1 minute rinse cycle so you get the peace of mind that the machine is clean before you put your dirty laundry in haha. I also love that they have a sink, bathroom, and hand sanitizer bottles. VERY covid-friendly! I'm not very familiar with pricing for laundro-mats, but it was prettty pricey IMO, but it might have just been because of how I ended up going about things. It was a bit of a learning curve tbh hahaha, but I know what to do differently next time. All in all, I find it well worth it and will definitely be returning :) read more

I appreciate how clean and nicely decorated the laundromat is. The plants are a nice touch of color. Large machines allow for saved time since i dont need to use multiple machines. Also, I love that they are pet friendly​. read more

Rip offs! The prices on the machines are set up so you have to put more money on their laundry cards ($3.09, $1.99, $3.59!). They require minimum $5 to load a card, this is deceptive and abusive. They also do not have cash for change in there register, which is apparently just a prop to look like they allow cash. The owner says there is no minimum when using paper money, that is false because you can't use change to load a card, so customers will always have to leave a balance on their laundry cards, increasing the businesses profits.

So I continue to come here because it is a big laundromat. Now I've had some issues and I've asked the workers they all have different answers or don't know. Issues some of the washing machines don't rinse well clothes comes out dripping so it takes way longer to dry. I wash on the cold cycle and it dispenses hot water my color clothes fade because of this issue. Mostly the employees are very nice but some seem annoyed when asked about the issues I'm not trying to annoy anyone. We spend money here for a service that's not being provided 100 percent. Please fix the cold water issue thank you. read more

My daughter and I were traveling from Chicago and found the need to wash our clothes while we were here for the week. I found this place and it looked nice, clean and professional. Unfortunately, there were no staff on-site to sell us laundry detergent or dryer sheets/fabric softener so, we had to get some from the closeby Target. This review would have been 5 stars if there was at least a vending machine for that stuff for those of us who are not local. Otherwise, I would come back again to wash my clothes here. The atmosphere is relaxed and chill. read more

Lucy's Laundry - Interior of laundromat - Laundromat Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Large laundromat with plenty of machines. They are all coin-less, using a card system, so no need for quarters.

This is the cutest laundry mat I've ever been to! Super clean, And new technology, You have to pay with a card but to load it they accept card or cash and have a $1 charge for a new card which I feel is super cool and convenient, Especially since I've grown up with quarter machines all my life and I always drop them everywhere. They have a lot of washers and HUGE dryers, The waiting area is so cute and modern and clean. I only came here because my laundry machine is broken at the moment but if I ever have to come back to a laundry mat again it'll be this one. The bathroom is the nicest bathroom ever too ! read more

Large facility with lots of machines of various sizes cost is not cheap but you buy a card and can add money easily

Really clean laundromat, the machines work great and there is always a machine open. Staff is super friendly and helpful The Wi-Fi is not available, i came in attempting to get an hour of work done while doing my laundry and the access was denied over and over again for whatever reason. No plug in stations, no where to charge your phone or device. Seating: a couple nice couches and some stools. Limited folding table stations. read more

I'm doing my laundry here today (1/13/2023 at approximately 4:55pm). Everything is ok. No problems so far. But I don't know if this homeless guy is doing laundry or not. But I found him sleeping on the lounge area. He looks unclean sadly. But I prefer Laundromats where I won't be hit up by any panhandlers. I'm afraid it might happen here at some point. read more

Lucy's Laundry - I just hope he's doing his laundry - Laundromat Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

My go to laundromat! Super big and can get super packed. Sometimes it's a lil dirty but overall I'll always go here to wash my comforters! Washer and dryer at home isn't ideal for it read more

I found this place on Google maps and I'm glad I did. This is the nicest laundry mat you'll find in orange and riverside county. I didn't include L.A. county only because I haven't been to facilities there. Lucy's Laundry is modern and sleek. I felt comfortable and re look axed there. You must obtain a prepaid laundry card from one of their machines located in the back of the facility, which by the way is free with your first deposit. The prices are only slightly higher than other facilitys but the reward is well Worth the cost. If you're in or near Costa Mesa, you need to really check out Lucy's Laundry. They also offer Fluff and Fold, a full service that does your laundry for you. read more

Dryer recently decided to go to its final resting place. Needed to do some laundry before getting a new one installed. Tried this place. It was really nice and really clean. Very comfortable to wait- machines are clean and efficient and super quick. Would recommend! read more

This is one of the nicest laundromat I have ever been to!!! This place pretty huge, perfect for social distancing. All the washer/dryer are new and all the washers have a city name on it!! That's just something I have never seen before. When you walk in this place, it makes you feel like you really WANT to do laundry instead of you HAVE to because it's nice and clean, they also have couches you can chill while you are waiting for your clothes. I wish they serve food and drink, that would be awesome!! This place does requires you to get their laundry card at the machine at the back for you to do laundry, AND use their restroom!!! They have plenty of machines for your needs, from 2 loads, 3 loads, 4 loads to 8 loads. So you will never have to worry about not having a washer to wash. I highly recommend this place to do your laundry, it's nice and clean, smells fresh and they offer free WIFI!!! read more

Nice and clean! Nice employees if you need help. Love using a card and not quarters. Felt safe.

Brand spanking new laundromat in Costa Mesa. This place is ample with lots of brand new machines. I must admit that the prices are much higher than other laundromats, but it's worth it. Less crowds, machines that actually work, and clean. I've been only been here one time, but I was impressed and no doubt I will be back. Also there is one of my favorite breweries right next door. Enjoy a beer while you wait for your machine. read more

One of my favorite laundromat's in the OC . Very clean and the atmosphere is calm . There is a waiting area , i usually take a book to read while my laundry finishes . Staff is very helpful when it comes to asking if you need any assistance . 10/10 recommend this place read more

Lucy's Laundry - Lucy's - Laundromat Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I LOVE this place. I've been coming here since I moved to Newport, then Costa Mesa I love it. They open super early and the close at a good time. It's economic and the staff is super nice. It's clean! And there's no weirdos lurking. read more

This is a very big, very roomy, very clean laundromat. You must buy a reloadable laundry card for $2 the first time, so maybe for a one shot wash, it might not be the right place. You can load your laundry card with currency or credit card, no coins. Be frugal when loading your laundry card with funds load only the funds you need for your wash day. My only complaint is that drying is a fixed 24 minutes and is $1.99, regardless of drying temperature. I prefer paying a variable 20, 25, 30 minutes in 6 minute increments, for example, based on what I'm drying. Fixed dry time is not really applicable when you're drying variable types of clothes. Lucy's has sofas, seats, chairs, and free wifi. Restrooms are free but you must have a laundry card to open them. The entire facility is 100% Electrolux machines and are 2, 4, 6, and 8 load washing machines. A 2 load cold water wash is $3.09. Folks, residential washers and dryers cost money, are made poorly usually, and take up room in a house or garage. Turn your home's laundry room into a hobby room or even a pantry! Laundromats are like renting a washer or dryer, if it breaks, not you responsibility! It's the nicest laundromat I've ever been to, but I'm not one to ask, really. read more

Lucy's Laundry - Sofa seating area, in addition to many chairs around the perimeter. Free wifi, stick around for a while. - Laundromat Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Fantastic employees and clean. :) I don't go to laundromats a lot, but this one is top-notch.

Cool place, but the prices are the worst. Ridiculously high in my opinion. $2.99 for a single wash load and $1.69 for 24 mins in their larger dryer. But if you want a double load washer, it'll run you $3.99 to start. We won't be back. Water's weak out of their faucet too. Revision/response: the faucet may have been tweaked prior to us getting there. I had noticed the small valve on the side but knew it was motion activated. Hadn't considered the possibility that i maybe should've adjusted the valve to account for others having previously fidgeted with it. Also, I had - in fact - mistaken a 2-load dryer for a single. Thanks for pointing it out. The machines are clean and i like how they're all named after local cities and beach towns. But, if you can find a tasteful way of displaying the machines load capacity, that may lead to less people feeling ripped off. I appreciate your response. read more

Sorry but charging people an extra $1 to get a speciality card is ridiculous. Laundry mats already over charge for loads of laundry but charging people extra just for a specific card to use a machine is ridiculous. The greed in this country is terrible. Also, give people a choice to use coins. I came in with a ton of quarters so this was very inconvenient for me. I stayed because I already put my clothes and detergent in the machine. You can't even use coins to buy the special card for the machines. The cheapest wash is $3.99. Obviously it's $4 so just say $4! Enough with the gimmicks. The floor was dirty but the machine looked ok. read more

Really clean (huge for me), nice vibe, couches to sit while you wait, nice employees. Everything about this place is exactly what I was looking for at a laundry mat! Highly recommended.... A little pricey, but to me you get what you pay for and I'm willing to pay read more

Really clean and easy to use. The hours are great! A little pricey, but worth it for how well they maintain the place.

Pros: new, clean, most machines operable Cons: opened before parking lot was constructed so we had to walk through dirt, no signage for machine capacity (first timers so spent more than necessary on larger than needed machines), no dryer options (one fee/one time) makes for a poor overall value I'm a single mom. I do about 8-9 loads a week and sometimes more. I don't have to watch every penny, but I do appreciate a good value and take advantage of deals and specials when available. I won't be using this facility again, but if you have expendable income and don't care how much it costs to wash your dirty chonies, Lucy's is for you! read more

I love a good ol' laundromat and this one is the Audemars Piguet. I get there early on weekend mornings, leisurely unload my car, and head into the peaceful laundromat with a smile on my face, knowing full well that I will enjoy the next 52-57 minutes. The music is always spot on (jazz) and the machines have all worked so far. Gotta acknowledge the Southern California names for all of the machines. Every machine I've used so far has been clean, works perfectly, and doesn't make me get up from reading my book to make sure it's doing what it's supposed to do. The plants are a nice touch, too. And that big ass balloon. And the fact that their social media presence makes it feel trendy and cool to do such a mundane task. While it is slightly pricey, the dryers don't get that hot, and the couch is kind of gross, I won't use any other laundromat. read more

100% agreement with the other 1 star reviews...here is mine: Thought I'd see what this laundromat had to offer and I should have read the 1 star reviews before coming here with my laundry...well after the experience it's just another reason to feel ripped off after COVID ...Laundry card only (no coin-op machines) $5.00 minimum to load a card + $1.00 deposit.....remaining balance is non-refundable (is that even legal in CA?!) Basic 3 load wash on cold is $3.99....add an extra $1.00 for hot water...Dryer is 1.99 for 26 minutes on hot temp. Need the laundry card to use the single occupancy restroom....cold blowing hand dryer that gets water all over your clothing. The only plus side is that there are in-person attendants that will offer to help you where the payment and use of machines is otherwise very tricky. For example, loading a laundry card and that same card not reading correctly in the funds loader, washing machines and drying machines that they are all designed for and accept as the only form of payment. Overall, this was a very expensive and inconvenient experience for what are really basic laundry facilities wrapped up in a "modern" format with all of the accompanying hoops and hidden expense -- Especially as compared to other local cash/card laundromats that are very clean and much more competitive and priced upfront for the services rendered -- even in a post COVID economy. Affordable laundry services are so very important for those without our own facilities and it just feels like a gut punch when the pricing is not transparent and full of hidden costs! Visiting a website for pricing is just ridiculous for most people just trying to get their chores done and want to try a place out! May I suggest publishing the prices/hidden fees upfront on a placard inside the business so we as customers are well informed before loading a machine. Maybe we'll stay, maybe we'll leave....at least it would feel like an honest business transaction. I'll take my business elsewhere moving forward. read more

I had an issue with one of the dryers with the name "Costa Mesa" a few weeks ago. I had an article of clothing get snagged and reported it to the owner. I'm happy to hear that the dryer has been repaired and back in tip-top shape. Once notified the management helped to resolve my problem. This location is one of the cleanest laundry facilities, and the machines are well maintained. I'll be back soon! Thank you! Jason read more
