I've been going there for a few years and nothing is too much trouble for Mohamed and his Dad. Always made welcome. It's like a micro community and I have made new friends there And look forward to seeing everyone on my visits. Thankyou Mohamed and Dad for making what would ordinarily be a chore a very pleasant experience. read more

Friendly and helpful staff! They were the first one that we found was open, even though the nation was mostly closed for the Queen's funeral. They really helped us out since we were traveling through the area. read more

Penylan Laundrette is a marvellous place, but I fear that more socialising than washing takes place here. Munir Malik, the owner, is a very congenial fellow, who possesses the kind of eyes that speak of wisdom, humour and compassion hidden deep within... although the humour makes a bid for freedom at reasonably regular intervals! He is more interested to know why I don't have any children than he is to enquire about why I haven't had my duck down duvet cleaned since the iron age, and why he's never been commissioned to perform a service wash on my behalf. His face alternates between quizzicality with a hint of condemnation, and alarm tinged with more than a little consternation. I just smile my answers back at him, explaining my position in a light-hearted way that's suggestive of a belief that I have no need to justify my decisions to anyone. I like Munir, and I like his laundrette. It is simple and unaffected, just like the man himself... what you see is what you get. If I ever decide to have my duck down duvet cleaned by a professional, this is where I will come! read more

Love this place, what a pleasure it is to walk in there, always a greeting and a helpful hand. Owner is lovely and nothing is ever too much bother. Would not go anywhere else read more

I was so grateful for this place! As an American tourist it was hard to find a self-serve laundromat. Then when we did, I had no idea what to do. The owner was so kind and patient with me and kept checking to make sure we were okay. Parking is a challenge, but that seemed to be true in much of the UK. I will definitely go back to this place if I ever make it back to Cardiff and need to do laundry. read more

I was very happy with the condition of the self-service laundry machines, the cleanliness of the location, and the helpfulness of the owner/attendant. They offer money exchange so you can get the coins you need and they also sell detergent and fabric softener if you need it. Overall, a very satisfying experience. read more
