    Walked in here with a clueless look on my face. It's my first time ever to a laundromat. The kind Asian woman(owner?) greeted me and asked if I needed help and stood close by as I sorted and fumbled through my clothes that needed laundering. Some helpful things I was relieved to find were: their IS a coin machine here takes 1's and 5's. So relieved. Also- machines take any type of liquid detergent I was really happy about that- not having to worry if I was going to flood the place out with suds or not! Machines take about ~ 30 mins.*including the extra large $4.00 machines. Not bad! I was hoping I wouldn't be here ALL day. 2-loads going at once I'll be done in no time. Note-use the website they add on here for pricing.. If you're a first timer it's the key.. They don't clearly list the pricing on the machines. Maybe I'm blind though.. Happy Washing Yelpers!

    Prices seem to have increased (a quarter for most settings and a full dollar for quick wash of a double load) since the last time I was here. My response was to go to a much cheaper place to wash and dry clothes (for less than the price this place wants just to wash 2 loads).

    Great laundromat! Very friendly staff. New Wascomat Washers! New Dryers are coming soon! They also have Speed Queen machines if it tickles your fancy. The place is well kept clean. Would recommend to anyone.

    Large family washers, good for bed sheets!

    This is the only laundry mat I come to, haha. I don't know if it's the whole Asian thing, the cleanliness, and the helpfulness but I love it here. There's up to 4 loads, and its super cheap. The dryers are nice and big, and it's next to a Chinese restaurant! I come here all the time. The Wi-Fi is free, but it's locked so you do have to ask for the password. But, other than that it's a pretty nice place for a Sunday wash.

    Very clean and not busy.

    See all

    This place was amazing. Joshua was so sweet he let us wash at night such a chill dude. Very clean…read moreplace. I definitely recommend this place!!!

    Clean, modern, great dryers, Apple Pay AND genuinely nice people?! I think I found my new…read morelaundromat. My usual laundromat was randomly closed on Sunday, so I had a whole car full of clothes and bedding with nowhere to go. This has happened before, and I've been meaning to find a backup, but every other place I'd tried either didn't take cards or had those evil dryers that somehow require 17 cycles and STILL leave your clothes damp. So I did what any reasonable person would do and went on Yelp to figure out where the Señoras would go- because they do NOT play when it comes to their laundry. This place popped up, had great pictures, took cards, and looked clean, so I figured, "Welp, I'm already here. Let's see what happens." When I walked in, I immediately started looking around trying to figure out where the heck you actually pay and how everything worked. Joshua noticed me looking confused, I told him it was my first time, and he walked me through the whole place. He showed me the Laundry Boss app, which is honestly so futuristic compared to the old-school quarter situation. You scan the QR code on the machine, set up your account, load money using Apple Pay, and start your machine right from your phone. As someone who never carries cash, I was SOLD. Joshua also let me know they have a drop-off laundry service (I always assumed that was one of those things that costs an arm and a leg, so I'd never even looked into it) but the pricing seemed reasonable especially if you can pick it up the next day, I always assumed it took several days, And everything gets washed, dried, perfectly folded and packed up for you- They can even drive to you and pick up your laundry from your house! I could see this being really helpful for mom's with kids at home and busy schedules or people like me who waited too long and now have to wash clothes, towels and bedding at the same time Joshua was super kind and genuinely seemed to enjoy helping people. While my laundry was going, I wandered around and started reading all the funny plaques on the walls and noticed this big "Hero Among Us" plaque and Joshua told me the story behind the owner, who apparently is very involved in the community -- doing turkey giveaways, coaching at the local high school, and actually coming into the laundromat during the week to make sure everything is running smoothly. And honestly, you can tell. While I was folding my clothes, I watched Joshua greeting other customers by name and chatting with some of the older folks. He clearly takes pride in what he does, and the whole place has this feeling that it's actually for the community, rather than just being another giant laundry chain where you're fighting with a broken machine over your last three quarters. Also, THE MACHINES. Everything I used was clean and working, and the dryers actually DRY YOUR CLOTHES. I didn't have to put anything through multiple cycles, which should honestly be the bare minimum but apparently isn't. They also have these really cool laundry baskets where one side is higher than the other, making it way easier to pull everything out of the washers without your clothes tumbling onto the floor. It's such a small detail, but when you're washing a million things, little details matter. The location is convenient too. There's an ice cream shop, Mexican food, and this funky little shop next door that seems to sell approximately EVERYTHING. So if you need something to do while your laundry is running (or phone dies) you've got options. My only feedback: I was VERY excited to see they had snacks and sodas because I spotted a Cactus Cooler and I swear I haven't had one in forever. Unfortunately, those were exact-change only. I never have coins on me, so I had to walk away from that Cactus Cooler and I'm still thinking about it. But now I know. Next time, I'm bringing quarters AND my laundry. I originally came here because my usual place was closed, but I left thinking this might actually be my new spot. Clean machines, dryers that do their ONE JOB, easy Apple Pay, thoughtful little details, fair drop-off pricing, and employees who actually seem to care about the people coming through the door. 10/10 would voluntarily do laundry here again. ++(Bonus points if you find the bobble head of Mr Boss Man )

    This the laundromat is probably the best in San Diego! This was my go to laundromat before I moved…read moreinto my apartment that had a in room, washer and dryer. I used to wash my clothes sometimes twice and rewash them and soak them here. I hadn't been here for a year and I recently came back and they have BRAND NEW WASHERS. These washers wash incredibly good. I no longer have to use the top washer. I use the front loading washer now. It has a setting where it pre-washes the clothes rinses them and then I add detergent and it washes it a second time for me. It even has a setting where it'll wash your clothes essentially three times and rinse it twice. It has a setting where it can wash your clothes for almost 40 minutes. My clothes smells so fresh when they come out I use Purcell detergent and I started using borax the laundry booster. And a new rinse additive. I only pay a dollar more to double and triple wash my clothes sometimes two dollars more depending but it's very affordable. You don't have to worry about mold in the washer from an old washer or eating your coins and having to try to figure out how to get your money back. My clothes come out smelling fresh like the detergent I use as opposed to stale like they need to be re-washed again. It's amazing! I highly recommend.

    Our very expensive washer broke so I have found myself at the laundromat until it gets repaired…read more You will need cash to get coins from their coin machine. They have one vending machine with snacks, soda, water & laundry detergent. You will need powder detergent for these machines. They have washer machines that do 1,2,3,4 & 6 loads- costs vary, settings on machines vary. They do have a quick wash cycle. The dryers are quite large and can easily fit over 3 loads. There is no AC, too warm in the large room in my opinion. They have one bathroom- you have to pay a quarter to use it. They have a sink out but no soap which I found inconvenient after touching dirty money. Vons is next door in case you need to buy laundry detergent or dryer sheets.

    Valley Laundry is my go to spot for doing laundry when I'm in El Cajon and my laundry bag is full…read more I almost always use the triple load machine for $3.50. Then throw $1.25 in the dryer which buys me 35 min which on high heat works well for me. The one and only time I had a problem here was my fault. After waiting my normal 30 min on my laundry I was ready to dry my clothes only to find out the smelled like dirty laundry. On furtherinspection they looked like dirty laundry. Evidently I failed to hit start button. I reloaded machine and hit start. No need for additional coins since none were used 30 min later they were ready for the dryer. Then 35 min later they were ready to be folded or hung. They came out fine as always. The owner isn't particularly friendly. He's not rude mean or unfriendly, He's just not friendly. Perhaps because he's there to clean up the place, cash out machines, and preping the place to close. He did allow me to park over night once when my car failed to start. So with all the positive I've said why 4 stars instead of 5? It's a cultural thing. Just as his all business deal with me is cultural. I expect to be treated as a friend or family when I'm a regular somewhere. This hasn't happened and I've been coming here for years. Not once has he ever spoken to me first. Never asks how I'm doing. Nothing. BUT he will speak when spoken to. Over all not a bad place to do l a laundry when in El Cajon
