Brittany C.

I got #4 $35 they did an excellent job my car looks so clean. I will definitely be back for the other service they offer.

The cargo area wasn't vacuumed.
Chris C.

Quick update to this review: I was reading other reviews, and one person mentioned that people complaining about their trunk (cargo area) not getting vacuumed shouldn't because they don't vacuum trunks, supposedly like every other place. I checked Royal Spa's website, which says they'll clean the interior. Perhaps they don't consider a car trunk to be "interior," but a cargo area IS "interior" in an SUV. If it isn't, then why did the employee working on my car open the back? What was he doing in there? If they don't vacuum cargo areas, they need to specify it on their website. I'm not sure if their signs say it at the location, but next time I go, I'll be sure to look. Either way, it still doesn't excuse the poor wipe down the cargo area received, and it doesn't explain why the cargo area has indeed looked vacuumed in past visits. Initial review: I've been here a few times and have been mostly pleased by the location and service. Today was an exception. I arrived on a Saturday in April around 1:15. I expected a long wait based on the amount of cars I saw, but was pleased to know it would only be about 45 minutes, which it was. The location is clean, stocked with food, drinks, and pastries and has many chairs, so I was comfortable. The purchased the Royal wash, their highest package. At $45, the price is good, but I didn't know there was an extra charge for my vehicle size, a midsized SUV, until I questioned the total at the checkout register. The extra charge wasn't bad, about $5. I've encountered the cashier several times, and she isn't very welcoming, although she does and good job keeping the waiting area in order. As for the final product, my vehicle looked good inside and out except the cargo area. As shown in the attached pictures, the cargo area wasn't vacuumed (or if it was, it wasn't done well). I saw the person handling the vehicle interior open the cargo area, so it's not like no one noticed that it hadn't been vacuumed. Further, while his job might not have been vacuuming, he was responsible for wiping down interior panels, and clearly missed sections in the cargo area. (I would have mentioned all this to an employee before I left, but I didn't notice the oversight until I returned home and put something in the cargo area.) He didn't seem to notify anyone that the cargo area hadn't been vacuumed. Also, there was a small piece of trash left in a handle in the cargo area. I had cleaned out the interior of all trash prior to arriving, but perhaps I overlooked this one. Removing it would have been a simple, one-second task that no one bothered to do. Sure, perhaps they overlooked it, too, but it's one of several things they overlooked, which adds up to poor overall attention to detail on their part. I paid for the top tier service, plus an oversized vehicle fee, and tipped, and received less than stellar service. I would have given two stars, except for the fact that I've been here before and was pleased with prior service. If the cashier can be more welcoming and the team can pay closer attention to details and check with each other if a tasked is overlooked, they could easily provide five-star services. I will return to this location, and I'm sure they'll do better next time.

Large dirt streak in the middle of hood.
Pierre B.

Kind of upset I paid $40 to have to wipe under the sides of my car, as well as the giant dirt streak the guy left on the hood. Not really sure how you miss that.

Spots on Window and side

I have no idea why yelp deleted my review but here I am posting it again because there's zero reason why it should have been taken down in the first place. I went to this location for close to 5 years. I used to love it. It went downhill. I paid about 40 dollars plus a 10 dollar tip for this awful work. Avoid this place at all costs. I'll keep posting this review if you keep asking yelp to take it down lol. You can't hide bad business, but nice try! Maybe try doing the work properly for the ridiculous prices you charge. A 9 dollar gas station wash does a better job than your employees do lately. The fact that you're taking down negative reviews just shows how desperate you are!! And I agree with the other negative reviews, they are very rude here as well.

This is my favorite place I go to get my car hand washed! Everyone else is express. Customer service is excellent and they do a really good job on making my car look its best!

Got my car completely detailed here for $250. So it wasn't as bad as it seems but there were some things that got under my skin. I paid for my seats to be shampooed and some stains were still left on the seat. All my seats had some kind of lint of some sorts left on them. I paid $220 for my floor mats and I don't know how they cleaned them, but now they're bent and look uneven in my truck. The exterior was washed well although whoever dried it needs a clean towel as some spots had dirt from the towels. It took 4 hours so I just took an Uber back to my place instead of waiting inside where it's hot. I think with just these minor easy fixes they can stand out against the competition but it's Palmdale so not much to expect Overall, the job was done somewhat decent. The annoying cons were definitely the lint and my mats now not fitting. Might take it here next time and give them a second chance to fix these issues. Will update when I do.

The loud Mexican music here was absolutely horrible. The work was well gone but the music was so loud and very unprofessional.

Steven and his guys are the best I've encountered. I used to…read moredrive down to Valencia for car washes because I didn't trust any of the ones in the AV to handle my car with care. I found Atlas Luxury Auto Care when googling places to get my wheels ceramic coated and to my delight, found they wash cars as well. Steven and his team ceramic coated my wheels at a very reasonable price and I was extremely impressed with the wash as well so I immediately set up a recurring bi-weekly wash with them. As soon as I get the PPF put on my car, I'm coming back to ceramic coat the whole car. I only wish I had found them sooner. Can't praise these guys enough.

Steven is everything you want in someone handling your new car. Knowledgable, respectful,…read moreenthusiastic, responsive! I mean, there is nothing to say in the slightest bad about his operation! So granted, he was a little booked up. I could only make it in on weekends but he called several times with additional openings once and scheduled to see if I wanted to get in sooner. Very complimentary and excellent service! Once my appointment did arrive. I showed up and he was beyond polite! So was his co-worker, which, unfortunately, his name escapes me. Both of them answered plenty of questions for me, as a massive concern for me as I drive this thing 130 mines a day, 5 miles offroad to get to my house in Acton. It is always dirty! Steven showed me a No Wax Soap Scrub alternative that I took a picture of and got on Amazon on my way home. I left the car for one day. I paid him much less than competitors, and that was two weeks and a day ago. Yesterday was the final day for me to wash my car; we are talking about 50 miles of dirt road! Plue the extra 1250 in those two weeks. To be able to spray it off in 8-10 minutes was a HUGE step up from the car washing I was doing on my old Dodge, I'll tell you that. The only issue you may see in the allotted photos below is that I did have to fight the Santa Ana winds yesterday, but it still came out beautiful for the time alotted. Thanks Steven! P.S. This guy has a toy drive box outside going until Dec 1st! You know he's not just a businessman, he's got a huge heart! That's the business you want to support! Right?

Amazing Tint Job at California Car Pros! I recently had the…read morewindows on my new car tinted at California Car Pros, and once again, they knocked it out of the park! This is actually my 4th car that I've had them tint, and every time they deliver an amazing job. The tint looks absolutely incredible and gives my new car that sleek, clean look I was going for. The owner, Vic, is absolutely amazing and always takes great care of me. His customer service, attention to detail, and commitment to quality are the reason I keep coming back. If you're looking to get your car tinted, I highly recommend California Car Pros. They do excellent work, stand behind what they do, and treat their customers right. Thanks again, Vic and the California Car Pros team! I absolutely love how my new car turned out!

1 STAR -- I would never bring another vehicle here…read more This shop claims to be the "best in town," but my experience was anything but that. I brought them a BRAND-NEW 2026 Audi A6 literally the day after taking it home from the showroom. What should have been a straightforward tint installation turned into THREE return trips because the work was repeatedly not done correctly. First, the tint on the FRONT window was cut short. I brought it back to have that corrected, and somehow after the "fix," the BACK windshield tint was then cut short. There were also bubbles after the curing period, debris trapped behind the back windshield tint, and gel/application residue on the back windshield that I pointed out from the very first visit. Then came the latest return visit, which was supposed to correct prior issues. Instead, I got my brand-new car back with THREE NEW problems: the THIRD BRAKE LIGHT was broken, an interior panel near the windshield was damaged with lifted/pulled threads, and debris appeared in the FRONT CAMERA/SENSOR AREA behind the rearview mirror. A visit that was supposed to FIX problems created additional damage. They also left tint solution/residue throughout the interior, including staining on the leather seats. The latest visit was also ridiculous from a communication standpoint. I dropped the car off at 11:00 AM and was told it would take about FOUR HOURS. By 4:00 PM, it still had not been worked on. When I called, I was told they were "working on it." My Audi app showed the car locked and parked outside. My husband physically stopped by, and sure enough, it was not being worked on. We were then told they were "baking" it in the sun so the tint would come off more easily. If that was the plan, say that. Don't tell me it's being worked on when it's sitting outside. As of 6:30 PM, the car was STILL not finished. Jonathan was a major source of frustration. My experience with him was that he was condescending, dismissive, and rude when concerns were raised. He told my husband the car would be ready that day and said he would call if it wasn't. We never received that call. Once again, WE had to chase them for an update. Elias was the ONLY person throughout this ordeal who was consistently helpful and actually seemed interested in getting us answers. I do want to give him credit for that. Communication overall was terrible. My husband reached out directly to the owner, Vic, TWICE and received no response. Funny enough, getting a response when you're asking for a QUOTE doesn't seem to be a problem. Apparently communication is much easier before they have your business than after there's a problem. I was also told I would be given a ride after dropping off my car, yet I ended up paying for an Uber TWICE. When I brought it up, I was told the team apparently couldn't come to an agreement about whether they should give me a ride. How is that the customer's problem when a ride was already promised? Then, to "make up" for everything, they offered me TWO details. On a brand-new car? Why would I want MORE services after seeing the quality of the work I already received? The car did not need a detail. It needed to be returned in the condition it was received. They also love trying to upsell you on other products and services. Maybe get the tint right first. After all of this, I demanded a refund, and the tint charge was refunded. But a refund does not erase the damage done to the car. I was told the replacement part for the broken third brake light would be ordered THAT SAME DAY and that I would be notified. Jaden was supposedly going to order it. That didn't happen either. No one contacted me. I had to call AGAIN and was told the part would be ordered and they would "be in touch." When I asked WHEN it would actually be ordered, I couldn't get an answer. This is exactly what dealing with this business has been like: they tell you something will happen, it doesn't happen, no one contacts you, and then YOU have to chase them down. Their own invoice documents that the front windshield sensors need cleaning because debris is stuck in the camera area, that there is staining in the seats, and that the third brake light was broken and needs replacement. Three return visits. Two Uber rides. Front tint cut short. Back windshield tint cut short. Bubbles. Debris behind the back tint. Gel residue. Leather staining. Then, on the latest visit, a broken third brake light, damaged interior panel with lifted threads, and new debris in the front camera/sensor area. Hours of delays, unanswered messages to the owner, a promised call that never came, and promised parts order with no clear timeline. If you are going to call yourself the "best in town," the workmanship, quality control, communication, professionalism, and accountability should reflect that claim. Mine absolutely did not.
