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.

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.

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?
