This place rocks! Spacious, clean/free bathroom and great working equipment. Been a really long time since I used a laundromat. I had my own washer and dryer for a while. This place is awesome though and I'll definitely be back! Great prices and deals to load your card and the staff was really nice and helpful. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. read more

Pearl Laundromat - Bonus load amounts - Laundromat Near Me - San Diego, California

Believe it or not this really is a 24 hour laundromat. I went to one of my favorite ones to try to get my blankets in, but they turned me away related to last call. It was kind of upsetting to me because this was one of the few that are open late in this part of San Diego. Anyhow, I had seen this place on searches before but I thought it was strictly a laundry service. Thankfully it is a 24 hour laundromat and self car wash. You could essentially clean your car. Then wash all your laundry and other stuff next-door. Overall, this laundromat is clean, almost all the machines look like they worked. The staff was very pleasant. The laundry is only usable with a PREPAID card system. Not a big deal if you go there a lot. The initial card is $.99 and then you can put however much you like. There is a special if you buy $20 - you get a bonus of $5. The machine I used was $5.39 so I was still left with a balance of $.62 after everything was said and done. This is a great spot if you need to wash clothes or blankets on the fly in the middle of the night. read more

BEST LAUNDROMAT IN SAN DIEGO!!! The fact that it's 24 hours makes it even better. The place is clean, the workers are considerate, and I always there for you when you need them. I go there once a week like clockwork and I have never seen the workers not cleaning the place. And when your clothes are in the washer or dryer you can be next door at their car Wash cleaning your car to kill time. read more

The one in San Marcos is much better. In the website it says you can use your Pearl Laundry Card at any of the franchise, but that was not true I had to purchase a new one even though I still had money on my existing one RIPPED OFF AND LIED TO. read more

I love to bring my comforters here for washing. The parking is small but they have parking on the side as well. They also own the car-wash next door which makes nice to stall time. I like that it is a cashless system and load money on to a card. Oh and check it out they have deals as well you load so much and they basically give you free money back for using them. The front loaders are clean and the staff do an amazing job keeping up the place throughout the day even the restrooms are clean and smell like bleach and pine sol like they actually clean the place. I thought this was genius to only allow those who have a card to wash... that same card gives you access to the restroom so it's not just anyone walking in. Like any launder service establishment don't leave your clothes washing or in dryer unattended and drive somewhere else. If you have the staff launder your clothing or materials then they are checked in and that's totally ok. This comment is for those who do their own laundry and leave. It has signs that say that they are not responsible for unattended items left in the washers or dryers. I definitely would come back because i like this establishment. read more

CLOTHES STOLEN -- OWNER NO HELP Came here on 8/13/25 because my washer/dryer was out. While folding, an entire load was stolen from the dryer, including my daughter's new school clothes and expensive items (Mother Jeans, Levi's, Lululemon, Athleta, Nike, Armani Exchange, AllSaints, Carhartt, etc.). Filed a police report. Owner only communicates by text and offered no immediate help. This isn't my first bad experience, last wash-and-fold service here, some items were bleached. If you value your clothes, avoid this place. read more

Pretty clean and really nice staff! I Always come here to do laundry and the prices are pretty reasonable!

Manager is a bitch, their machines smell and and they want to charge for everything $2.00 to use the restroom if you are not washing even though you have a card it wont let you use it to open the bathroom after a certain time, I give this horrible place no stars read more

They charge way to much and then you gonna have to buy a card to load it with money and cards most of the time don't work and they say they can to anything you transfer the money from the broken card to the new card I don't know how read more

I do like it here at night. During day time it's rough. Crowded, people take up lots of space and rolling baskets, the machine sometimes eats your money. But at night I really enjoy the quiet and peace of this place. The lady I've seen there has been nice and she's always cleaning so it's very tidy. She's helped me with technical issues too. They don't mind me taking up a bit of space and being very all over when it's dead (that's why I come super late at night, because I have a lot and I can only muster the motivation when my laundry pile is so much I start buying new clothes. read more

I tried to ask an attendant for help they were really rude and unhelpful. From other reviews it seems like this is a frequent issue

I came on a Monday evening and it was packed!! Which is good for business. Anyways, they has different sizes of washing machines and dryers. The largest washing machine can take up to 10 to 12 baskets, but I would say more like 7 to 8 baskets. The staff was friendly and they kept the place clean. You don't pay with money, but you pay with credits. I didn't take a picture of the prices (sorry), but the more you buy they give you extra credits. I will definitely be back. read more

I spend $100's of dollars at the Pearl Car wash next door (same company), I spent $39 today and have the receipt, I needed to use the restroom for the first time ever after coming here for years and the woman would not let me use the restroom, she then wanted to charge me $2 to use it after explaining this. What a joke, shame on you guys. read more

I used to come here back when I rented a one bed room apartment with coin laundry but for some reasons take credit cards thru an app instead, plus their washing machine power were not strong enough. So I found this Pearl Laundromat location, I believe I still have at least 2 more washes with them, not sure if it was cheaper at the time, but I put in $15-$20 to refill my card then just swipe it every time, also they have service that someone will iron and fold clothes for you for a price. It seems to be a good idea at the time, since it's opened 24/7, well I will disagree on the parking situation, because it's not a big parking lot, it splitting between Goodwill and their Pearl Car Wash, its design very hard to get your car in and out, so super tricky on that part. Anyway since I moved to a new apartment, I have stopped using it service read more

Great place to do laundry and the washers and dryers worked well and quickly. My only complaint is that my clothes all smelled like fragrance, must have been softener left over in the machine. read more

After 19 years my washer bit the dust. Repair man says could take months for parts to arrive from Germany. Comparable machine super expensive. I got on Yelp & Pearl Laundromat came up. Same ownership owns a Pearl Self Serve Car Wash right next door. Great way to do two chores so conveniently. I was impressed by the Continental Girbau washers & dryers. Very clean and I got an extra $5 by loading a card w/ $20. The two ladies who worked today were very nice and helpful. I guess it was obvious I had not been there before. Also open late & will try going later on next time. My only critique is there are not a lot of laundry carts for unloading. I did manage to get one from a lady coming back from the parking lot. read more

Had some things that need to be cleaned early Christmas morning. After checking two other places that were closed Pearl was open! It had been years since I'd been to a laundromat and boy have things changed! Fortunately, there were two very helpful attendants on duty to guide me through getting a card and getting the laundry going. read more

So it's been a minute since I've used a public laundromat. Back in the day the attendant used to be able to stop and restart machines when, we, or in this case, I, forget to set the settings on the machine. So my colors are set to wash in warm water. Call the attendant over and she tells me she can't restart the machine. SHE CAN STOP IT...! BUT I'D HAVE TO PAY AGAIN!?!?!?! The machine hadn't even ran for a minute. This may be true, but this is horrible customer service. FYI: I hold myself accountable for my part... Interesting enough they walk around with their own little cards for their washing service. I'm sure there's a enough to help your customers who use your establishment and make these kinds of mistakes. You'd rather me ruin my clothes than help me out. IDK...is it me? read more

Pearl laundry has been my go to lately and I must say this place exceeds my expectations each time I go there!!!! The dryers dry my clothes so fast it's amazing!thank you so much to the owners for that ! read more

I found myself thinking about what I'm going to wear to work tomorrow? It was around 11:00pm at night and wanted to do all my laundry so I was looking for a laundromat. I didn't think there would be anywhere open at that time but I saw this place was open 24 hours so cool. I got there and it's a nice place with lots of nice and new machines all over. It was clean and not sketchy or anything. The two women that worked there were very helpful and nice too. I decided to just do a few things and leave the rest of the laundry for fluff and fold. I had 10-12 regular loads and just didn't want to do it. I don't like folding. The next day it was nicely folded and packed up for me. It was great! They did a fantastic job and I'll definitely go back! read more

I was in the area on business, and I had not used a laundromat to wash clothes in years. Needless to say I was lost in between purchasing a laundry card, detergent, and selecting which machine was right for me. One of the workers clearly noticed I was having a rough time and came over to offer some assistance. What a help she was! She walked me through the process of purchasing a card, getting detergent, and figuring out which machine would fit my clothes for the best value. So thankful for this place as my hotel did not have laundry located in it and Pearl Laundromat was the only place within vicinity that was opened past 10pm. The laundromat is very clean, and I would recommend it to anyone that needs to do laundry while in the area! read more

Worst laundromat. Three workers teamed on one of their customers about not washing enough clothes to be considered a " real customer" to use their bathroom. She even offered more money to use their bathroom. One of the saddest things iv witnessed. I will no longer be giving my business to this company. Definitely notifying close neighborhood friends and family about avoiding this laundromat. read more

Great hours if you work in healthcare. Fluff and fold is best in San Diego County and I have tried places all over. For laundry they use a card system and often have promotions. Vending snacks are good. They even have ice cream for the vending machines. Large washers and very clean. Car wash right next door. read more

This laundry mat was good at one point but honestly I been coming here SINCES it open but They don't clean the laundry mat in general as like I seen a lady come with hourse mats full of hair and wash it in here and All the Washers full of hair we have told the people here and it's honestly they just wipe it they should tell her she can't do that here but that's one next I have had to throw away cloths because they get damaged and all they do Is get your information and that's all never get called this time I had it I just got new cloths for my kids and bf and every new cloths needs to be washed it got damaged So The manage or there boss message me Now saying my fault I'm like dude no you guys don't ever Check the claims people have done because this is the 2 time and the first time they never returned my call or nothing The worse read more

I would give no star if I could. Wrong water temperature and because it was STOPPED by them to the correct water level. I was charged for a New Wash. It's already bad enough their over charging to dry clothes I will be reporting then to City Council. Dryers should not cost .90cents to a $1.20 to dry for 12mins. Should be against the law. read more

I always come to this laundry Matt! They aren't nice, but the prices are low and the washers are clean.

First time coming and I loved it. Very clean, stocked vending machines, sitting areas, great workers. I saw them cleaning each machine by hand, which is very different from other places (ew) Great prices as well. Think I paid like .75 cents of my detergent and $4 for a wash. Snacks are cheap as well. $1.50 monster, jarritos, and juice. Just don't bring any quarters, this place requires you to use a laundry card. The machines only take card and cash. Overall, great experience and open late as well. Very very happy. read more

I come here a lot and the place is usually pretty busy, especially during sale hours. 11pm-7am they have deals on certain larger load washes and dryers. This place is super affordable and makes it easy and fast to get a ridiculous amount of laundry done. Since it is busy I'd say always stay with your stuff because your cart for laundry will be taken fast. Someone literally walked up and took mine while I was setting up to load things, obviously I let her know I was using it. I also have to say there is a large homeless community in the canyon just behind this shopping plaza so I definitely wouldn't leave your clothes. I have been warned about stealing by a few parties. I do like this place though the workers are nice and I can always find at least a few machines to use. read more

Pearl Laundromat - Always get 25% more than you put on your card - Laundromat Near Me - San Diego, California

If I could give this place no stars I would.They interrupted my wash pulled out my clothes while still in mid cycle and were in their words moving my things because someone they knew came in and wanted to use the washer I was using. When I came up on them invading my privacy by touching my laundry without my consent two of the workings backed me into a corner and started to shout at me. Super unprofessional uncouth and I called for I would never recommend this place to anyone unless they enjoyable lashings invasion of privacy and assault basically if you're into being publicly humiliated for no reason and you get off on it and I will come here. read more

Pearl Laundromat - Laundromat Near Me - San Diego, California

This was my favorite laundry mat until today. Pros: I love the convenience of it being open 24 hr, lots of snacks, ice cream, washing necessities, and the car wash is right next door that you can use while you wait. Never had an issue bringing my dog here. Other customers are generally respectful and friendly Cons: Was always helped by the staff until today. I placed my card in the wash and realized I didn't have the right settings (within 3 seconds.) I hold the stop button and attempt to change from warm to super wash. This is very important due to me and my sons recent skin allergy. I really needed to have the blankets sanitized. I asked a staff member for help and she explained to me that i needed to change the settings before putting in the card. She made sure to emphasize that my card had been charged. The stop button on the machine is more like a pause button. So she asked if I would like to stop completely to change my settings.... but I would have to pay the full amount all over again. I asked her if she could be refund the previous transaction if I canceled this wash. She said no. I looked at the machine to make sure I wasn't going to put my foot in my mouth, Then I pointed out that the water hadn't really started. Maybe a few dribbles at the most. The machine couldn't have been going longer than 5 seconds when I paused it. She stated that because I started the machine that it was going to charge me. I let her know that in the past other staff members have refunded me on my card when something had happened. She kept saying that the card would be charged cause I started the machine. I asked her "so you're going to charge me over $7 when I haven't used the machine? I didn't do a wash. The water didn't even fill up. I only had it on for about 5 seconds." Her response stayed the same. I walked away and continue to turn on my other loads, Then she proceeded to follow me and explain how to use the machine after she had already done that on the first machine. I literally had to tell her to go away and leave me alone after she proceeded to give me instructions when I said I no longer needed her help. It was not necessary for her to re-explain but she already did on the machine I had made a mistake on. I am extremely disappointed that this laundry mat will now charge people for simple errors, even when it concerns the health of my child. It was a simple fix, which I know the staff is perfectly capable of doing but it was out of her personal preference not to assist me. I asked to speak to the manager and she stated that she was the manager. I asked her her name, she told me that I was so angry that I forgot. She is the petite lady with Short dark hair and bangs. If this had been my credit card I would have filed a complaint on their merchant account. Guess I'm going to have to look for a new laundry mat. Update -No communication from the owner about my review we're offer to adjust my concern. Unprofessional read more

Great place. Usually kinda crowded though and the parking can be a nightmare. That depends on the time you go, though. The earlier,the better. I wish they were still 24 hours though but oh well read more

I love the place personally, I mean sure it's not in the nicest part of town, plus there are quite a few ghetto people here, but what do you expect for a 24 hour laundromat. Prices are cheap, location is sweer and right off 805, cool bonuses, and overall great (New) machines. Plus customer service is pretty nice and chill. read more

A laundromat that is open 24 hours?! Sign me up! I'm not too sure why some are complaining about the area... duh, you in the hood! And it is right next to the hood carwash where everyone goes just to hang out on a Friday night with nothing better to do, blasting their music while they hang out outside their car with their friends all surrounding their car. Not that I do, but I have eyes and can see what is going on. So yeah, area is sketchy but just be careful... If you want to go somewhere else that is more boojie, you should go search up north somewhere. Prices are good here and there is a lot of machines to use. Right now that it is summer though, it is super packed at night at about 10 or 11pm, as we all think alike and try to do laundry during parts of the day that are less hot. So, sometimes all the small washers with 2 or 3 loads are full so you might have to wait until someone else is done, but no biggie. Parking also is a hit or miss, as there are not a lot of spaces outside and some people seem to be there for hours. Overall, it is a good spot. Oh, and no quarters!!!! I repeat, no quarters!!!! You simply load your card there (that you get from their machine) with whatever amount of $$ you want. AND there is a deal for $5 free when you load with $20... so spend $20 and get $25 worth. I think there is a deal for $100 as well, but I'm not a baller like that to be dropping $100 in one laundry visit :P read more

Probably the cleanest & newest laundromat I've been too. I've been coming here for about 4 years now since it has opened. Mostly for the blankets because of the good sized washer machines. They have a really good special with pricing too. You buy $20 & they give you $25 of credit! read more

I highly recommend this laundromat! It's 24 hours. I usually drop my laundry off and pick it up a couple days later. I'm so happy with the way they do my laundry it's perfectly folded and clean! Convenient location right off the freeway! So if your looking for a place to do your laundry go to Pearl laundromat! read more

We use the fluff and fold service and have been for the past year. It's affordable and the staff is very friendly and helpful

Washers are awesome. There's the option to pay a little extra for someone to put your laundry in the dryer for you and if you pay just a tad bit more, they'll fold your stuff too. Dryers were weird. Took me forever to figure out how not to have to stick my card in every 8 mins. Tip: for however long you want the dryer to run, re-insert your pay card several times before turning on the dryer. Customers and employees are nice. You know how there are some laundromats where you just feel we're doing your laundry there? All this isn't the place you don't feel weird. You feel like everyone's just there and to wash their stuff and get the heck of out of there. Only thing that I would say it is annoying Is the parking lot. The lot is cramped and hardly any spots open. read more
