This place has the ultimate scam going. So I stopped for a car wash this week and they offered a…read moremonth for $10. Thought it was a good deal so I signed up. They took my credit card and said oh I'm sorry I don't know why it charged you the full price $39.99 I will give my manager a copy of this receipt and he will take care of it in the morning or you can call this number. We have called the number multiple times left messages and sent emails and no has gotten back to us in 5 days! Funny thing my wife was getting her car washed they offered her the same thing and guess what it charged her full price! They must be doing it intentionally do that actually not know the charge they are applying to the credit card before they swipe it?

I ran my debit card to be able to wash the Salt out of my matts. I ran the self serve spraying wash…read morebay option. I only ran the sprayer for 9 minutes and change. They originally charged my card $12, so I thought they would adjust after and the amount would decrease. This was not the case!! The final charge was $22.60 for under 10 minutes of spraying water in the freezing cold. What a rip off!! I'm not cheap, that is crazy expensive and the math from hard money to card payment isn't aligned.

This review is just for the self-serve bays…read more I'm old school; I'm happy washing my car in a pay-as you-go bay where I'm in control of how much time I need and how much soap and rinse I want to use. I'm glad Colonial has a couple of these bays, but using them isn't quite as customer friendly as I had hoped, especially as a first time user. These bays do not have bill readers. They take credit cards, but you don't exactly get to select how much time you want. Instead, the screen will show increasing time/cost, and you have to remember to QUICKLY press the stop button when you think you've got enough... meaning I need to know in advance how much time and money? They're probably hoping you err on the side of caution and overpay. They also take coins, but only quarters and $1 coins. When was the last time you had $1 coins on you? (NOTE: You can probably get $1 coins and quarters at a coin dispenser on site.) I had a bunch of quarters all set though. It's 25 cents per 15 seconds, minimum of 8 quarters/$2.00. But you either need to have your hand on that spray nozzle or have a 2nd person handy, because as soon as you start adding coins, the countdown begins, which means I lost about 10 seconds getting quarters #2 through #8 in. There's also a time lag between when you switch from soap to rinse, which means you may want to switch to rinse maybe 10-15 seconds before you actually want the soap to stop. Having the ability to put all the coins in and then press "START" would be handy, like some other self-serve car washes I've used in the past. I did get my car clean, and I'll have a better idea how to handle this on future visits. It wasn't a bad experience, just not as good as similar service I've had elsewhere.

Hoffman completely rebuilt the old Raindancer car wash into a state of the art new facility which…read moreopened in late 2025. Unfortunately, they no longer have the self service bays, but now offer free vacuums which is a big plus. When they opened the new facility, they were giving away free car washes for a couple of days and had some special on their Unlimited Car Wash Plan which included additional free car washes after the plan expired. I signed up for the plan, the attendant put a bar code on my windshield and I used the car wash during the winter. Overall, the car wash did an excellent job when first opened. And when first opened a lot of colored lights would begin flashing as the vehicle passed through the various stages of the wash. The final time I used the car wash fewer lights were flashing and for the first time an attendant used a hose to spray down the front of my car. It's uncertain whether the car wash was now providing all the features included in the paid for plan. There are two lanes vehicles use which scan plan bar codes which then merge into one lane while making a sharp left hand turn to enter the wash. Twice I almost got into an accident because a vehicle couldn't make the turn and had to backup as the lanes merged causing a near miss. The exit from the car wash is tricky and causes confusion. There is a yellow light and a small sign which states to wait for the green light. The yellow light may be on or off and green light seems to go on at random times. While waiting for the green light the vehicle may not be moving forward because the plastic track which propels the vehicle is now only on the rear wheels and can begin to slip. Many times I had to drive away and not wait for the green light. Finally, the vacuums work well.

The interior clean was satisfactory but took longer than in the past. Is it challenging to get workers or is the company unwilling to hire more? Probably the former. The exterior clean is not as good here in CP as it is at the Hoffman on Troy Schenectady Road since it is a newer location. Also, the course and length of wash time are longer on Troy-Sch Road.

On two occasions my car tire got damaged - the first time it was completely slashed, and I had to replace it. The second time I got a bolt stuck in it and had to get a plugged. The first time I gave them the benefit of the doubt, but the second time I was more aware based upon my previous experience and the fact I just pulled out of the wash. When I discussed with the Assistant Manager and Customer Service and gave me the runaround of all the reasons why my tire damage couldn't have happened on their property. I have effectively cancelled my service and will NOT be going back to Hoffman Car wash, especially the Clifton Park location.

I had my car washed there a few days ago. When I arrived home, I noticed that my chrome strip on…read morethe rear quarter panel was missing. I called the Colonie facility and asked Alberta, an assistant manager, if she could find my strip as things were very quiet while I was there. She asked for some info from me and said she'll call me back. Thankfully, she called very quickly and said that she found it and it was in good condition! I returned to retrieve my item and a team member offered to put the strip on my car! I could have done it myself as it's a simple fix but he offered and he was very nice to do so. I tipped him and he appreciated it. A big relief for me as it was from an older model car and a replacement for my car would have been an effort! I didn't get the young man's name but he was just as helpful as Alberta! Super service!

When i filled out a claim in, they denied it even though It clearly was the wash. the "Manager" insulted me, threatened me and then "Banned" me. this is all from a phone call mind you, when i he blatantly said I do not know what I am talking about and "A car wash cannot damage a car". One on the most oscinine thing I ever heard/ So even after I was "banned" on the phone call, he kept goading me on and on especially when i said " Oh No, I am banned! You mean I cannot spend $500 a year for you to damage my car?? Oh no, I must now got to the other four car washes around here?? oh no"" So i hang up, go to Hoffman, which is cheaper . better. and has many more locations. but wait it gets better, I get a call from the local police department about some kind of incident??? I was like what are you talking about, this guy called ME at my home and threatened me and canceled me, yes, i had choice words for the idiot, but they went over the line. So far, i have had three people cancel!!! Hey splash, go away, we do not want you around here. We like our local Hoffman and Colonial washes, IF YOU LIKE YOUR CAR, AND LIKE YOUR COMMUNITY, STAY AWAY FROM THIS WASH. BRIGHT LIGHTS DO NOT WASH CARS, IT IS A HORRIBLE WASH AND TO TOP IT OFF, THEY DAMAGE THE CAR AND OPPOSED TO HONORING IT, THYE ACCUSE YOU OF LYING AND THEN BAN YOU WHEN YOU DISAGREE.
