Most recently I dealt with owner Jeff who thankfully was able to squeeze my car while in town. Jared was ready for me upon arrival when they opened. It's difficult to find quality hand wash detailers and Aqua Cville has perfected an exceptional service on both my car and UVA student daughter. They are appointment only which is best done online, but also by calling. The pricing varies, so look them up to see the various packages to see if they are within your budget. When back in town I know where to go for the best hand wash in the Charlottesville area. Thank you Jeff and Jared for your professional demeanor.

My husband had a membership here a few years ago and his truck would blind you because it would…read moreglisten and gleam like brightly mined diamonds. That was then, this is now. I have a membership now because I have a new car but no new desire to wash it at home. I don't expect the automatic car wash to get every crack and crevice but I do expect the team if folks who are drying my car to NOT ignore the bird crap and bug guts that survive the wash tunnel. Unfortunately, if I don't walk around the car to point out the bird poo on the windshield, the dirt remnants on the fender, or the bug carcasses on the rear view mirror, they would (and have) wiped over the area and waved me on off the premises. Please, note that none of the areas mentioned are remote areas of my vehicle. So, why not 2 stars (or even one star) you ask? The price isn't bad, I still don't want to wash my car, and when I ask them to attend to spots they've seemingly ignored, they've always obliged very kindly. In a nutshell: I'm still a member but looking for other car washes with affordable memberships that don't require me to supervise as well.

I went to the car wash because my truck was dirty!! After I came out there were still a leaf on the…read moresunroof and stuff all over the hood. It is not sap but probably pollen from the trees that sat and got dirtier while I was on vacation for a week. I asked the guys that were drying it off to see if they can get that off.. They said we don't scrub. I.e. we don't get your vehicle clean. Moral of the story "if your car is dirty, don't go to the car wash" :-) Or at least this one I will try Tiger wash next. Cost $21 before tip

Update: Someone from the wash got in touch the next day, and asked for photos. We sent them in and…read morethen were invited to come back so the detail manager could make it right. We did, and they buffed and waxed out the marks. The detail manager was friendly and apologetic, and did the work himself. We are satisfied with the outcome, though the marks shouldn't have happened in the first place. Plus I had to take off work to get there before 3pm in order to meet the detail manager. Because of the inconvenience, we don't feel right going up to a full five stars. But excellent service recovery!

Nice staff, horrible management! People make plans around…read morethings like this so I drove across town to go here and showed up 15 minutes after they opened. They're closed until maybe noon because it's a light drizzle outside. They have a canopy over the drying area. What's the deal with rain. Are they going to melt? The staff were very friendly, but said the manager wanted to wait for the rain to stop. Last time my car was washed there it was pouring out. Time to find a new place to wash the car if you can't depend on them being open.

I did receive personal service after waiting a few minutes for staff. However you can self serve, select and pay. I did like the personal touch. I choose a $17 wash through their automated facility. They do offer two bays for self hand wash. Staff was friendly. I saw the car in front of me get significant prep by staff which I was excited about. Then my turn the staff was interrupted by another staff and literally got little prep. That was in my mind the no way I'm giving them a 5. After my wash I went to the self vacuum area which was tidy. The car was still very wet. The vacs worked fine, but the spaces seemed more condensed than others. The air sprayer to blow drops off is a huge bonus if working properly. It was actually blowing out condensation though. After finishing I wanted to make a left turn out to the highway which was impossible with heavy traffic. No big deal, I made a right to later pull a u-turn. After driving over 3 miles I finally made an illegal u-turn at highway 250. A 3 really seems to fit them well for my only experience. I may, or may not return.

Downtown Detail is really just a guy named Vinny. And this is a great thing, Vinny is amazing at…read morewhat he does. I'm not much of a car washer, maybe 1-2 times a year when the car gets really grimy. But the 10-year old sedan was starting to look rough and I figured it could use a good detail. I cannot get over how good the car looks now. Pictures won't do it justice. Vinny took a clay bar to the entire car and the paint looks and feels amazing. Headlights are buffed and inside is spotless, pretty sure he conditioned the leather as well because its somehow softer. It took him a good three hours but he did amazing work.

It's weird to think a gas station deserves a yelp rating but I need to tell you why. While I've…read morenever used the bathrooms here, for the most part the team does a good job (this is the gas station I use most) of keeping the trashcans not over flowing, the coffee although they don't often have all the choices, gives me enough choices to go on. And (I'm hoping this will get my favorite product back) they serve Extreme Caffeine Mocha from Sand D in their powder cappuccino maker. That stuff makes me joyous. Another feature of this gas station seems to be a good amount of fresh food prepped and put in containers. Now for the piece de la resistance, They have a any flavor ice cream machine and since we don't keep it in our freezer, that machine makes the occasional craving feel really good coming out of a cone. The other things you might find useful, they have diesel, they have a vacuum, and air for tires, and a car wash for those bad moments. They even have a propane trade out.

There is parking in front and in back of this location. When entering and exiting, please use caution due to the median in the middle and everyone not safely driving through this area (there are some that will get impatient with you, let them it's not worth getting into accident or injured). The prices are fairly reasonable as well for what they have made!! A very nice location!!

I was quite satisfied w/ my new car purchase from Flow VW in charlottesville. I spent quite a bit…read moreof time researching for the right car. Then it came down to where to purchase the car. Shop locally, or migrate to neighboring areas. I decided to look at Flow cville. I was impressed that this location had quite a large selection of cars that I was looking for. Sure every dealer wants to be your friend and get you the car from another dealer, but I didn't want that. Upon my first visit, a sales guy Ray T greeted me. I was expecting a sales pitch, but instead he offered the details and answers i had for the car I of interest. He was quite knowledgeable about the car of interest. Actually, I can't recall any question I had that he didn't know how to answer about the car. This dealer appeared to hire sales people that have a passion for the cars they sell as it was reflected in his knowledge about this type of car. Ultimately, the offer/negotiation was done via email, which is what I preferred. I was happy Ray was open to discussions using this method. Once I decided to commit to the car, the final process must have taken less than no more than 30 minutes! The car was polished up and fueled up (when does that happen anymore?) I hope that when service is needed on my car, their service department is as helpful.

Purchased a new car here -- 4 stars for the buying process, but it's been downhill ever since…read more Service is terrible: they don't return calls, getting a loaner vehicle is nearly impossible, and recall appointments can take months to schedule (though that's sometimes on the manufacturer, not them). We brought the vehicle in immediately after purchase to fix a pre-existing issue that was part of the purchase agreement -- an obvious, visible defect on the exterior. Each of the first two times, they told us it was fixed, and each time it clearly wasn't. It took three visits total before it was actually resolved. They're also supposed to clean, vacuum, and charge the car (it's an EV) as part of routine maintenance. Three visits, three times they skipped all of it. Might sound petty, but these are the details that make the difference between good customer service and delivering a great experience -- actually doing what you say you're going to do.
