I've been coming to Alameda Launderland with my family for years, but my experience with the…read moreemployee working the evening of September 18 was extremely upsetting. Throughout the evening, my dad and I were repeatedly spoken to in a condescending and confrontational manner while the employee enforced rules she said came from the owner. Around 9:30 PM, my dad needed additional change so we could finish our laundry. The employee told him the change machine was turned off after 9:30. She did ultimately turn it back on and help him, but the way she spoke to him while doing so was unnecessarily rude and condescending. Then, at approximately 9:55 PM, I personally watched her assist another customer with getting change. What stood out to me was the difference in her demeanor. I did not observe the same condescending attitude toward that customer. I was also confused about why customers would be unable to get change after 9:30 if 9:30 is the cutoff for starting a wash, since people who started their laundry before the cutoff may still need quarters to finish drying. In all my years coming here, I personally had never encountered this before. There was another uncomfortable interaction while I was trying to remove my clothes from one of the dryers. The employee was changing a trash bag directly in front of the area I needed to access. I was standing there waiting to get to my clothes, but she did not move or acknowledge me. Another customer standing behind me eventually spoke up, and only then did the employee move so I could access the dryer. The biggest issue involved the laundry carts. The employee took a cart I was actively using away from me twice that evening - they were in front of my clothes in the dryers. There were approximately eight or more other carts available at the time, and I did not see anyone waiting for a cart. It was also already after the 9:30 last-wash cutoff, and we had a large amount of laundry actively drying. Given those circumstances, I questioned why it was necessary to take the carts we were actively using rather than one of the numerous available carts. She told me this was a "new rule" from the owner and said the owner watches the cameras. She also said she had never seen us there before. We have actually been customers for years, I come regularly, and I have interacted with her before and am aware of the rule. Whether she personally remembers us isn't really the point, but I didn't understand why that was relevant to how we should be treated. When I questioned why the rules were being enforced so aggressively with us and told her I felt we were being singled out, she told us that if we were the "type of people" who thought we were above the rules, we should go somewhere else. That was the most upsetting part of the interaction. My dad and I were not saying the rules shouldn't apply to us. We were trying to finish our laundry and go home. Being characterized as the "type of people" who think they're above the rules made the interaction feel personal, as though our character was being judged rather than an employee simply explaining a policy. Customers can follow rules without being spoken down to, and policies can be enforced without turning an ordinary interaction into a confrontation. I also did not observe the same rigidity in her interactions with other customers who were still finishing their laundry that evening. I want to acknowledge that the other employees I've encountered here over the years have generally been kind and respectful. This review is about this particular experience. By the time our laundry finished drying, I was trying to fold our clothes while physically shaking from anger and holding back tears. A routine trip to do laundry should never have left me feeling that upset and unwelcome. Since the employee specifically told us that the owner monitors the cameras, I hope management reviews the surveillance footage from approximately 9:15-10:00 PM on September 18. I would actually welcome that, because I want management to evaluate the interaction for themselves.

Finally got to try this laundromat it has its pros and cons…read more (Customer Service) = horrible! the lady made me feel uncomfortable, when I was loading up washers and going back to my car to get soap I caught her looking in the washing machine at my clothes ( while the door was still open ) I even asked her what is she doing she looked at me like ( oopps just got caught and walked off fast ) #weird The biggest washing machine costed $7.00 ( and the inside of it smelled like mold ) the machine was very very old which I found pretty odd as they have new washing machines in different sizes so I don't know why they didn't upgrade everything. The next size down was $6.50 it was a newer machine.. So washing was on the cheaper side. The older machine definitely doesn't wash good. The dryers is what they get you on. I had one on the hot setting and it didn't get hot. 1 quarter get you three minutes 2 quarters gets you 5 min ( makes no sense it should be 6 min ) normally I would only spend $1.50 max drying but here I had to spend around $3.00 I hope this place fixes things because it's real convenient as I live nearby

Launderland South Shore 545 S Shore Ctr W Alameda, CA 94501…read more(510) 337-0769 Nov 06, 2025 Yes, I went all the way to Alameda from San Leandro to do my laundry, and it was worth the trip. LaunderLand is clean, well-maintained, and has plenty of machines available--even during busier times. They have two change machines, which is super convenient, and there's also an ATM on-site--just note that there is an ATM fee. The couple that runs the business is very nice and helpful, which makes the experience even better. If you're using this laundromat for the first time, pay attention: not all the washing machines and dryers are coin-operated. Some run on a reloadable card that you can purchase there, so it helps to check before loading your clothes. A nice little perk--if you get hungry, there's a café right next door: Southshore Cafe. The washers and dryers work efficiently, and I appreciated how quickly everything got done. The space feels safe and bright, with enough seating to wait comfortably. The machines are easy to use, and the whole place is kept tidy, which isn't always the case with laundromats. Overall, a convenient and reliable spot to get laundry done without any hassle. I'll definitely be coming back.

There's not a lot of space, it's a small laundromat. I wish there were more seats - or maybe even using some of their parking lot to create a seating area. If you want to stay with your close you just kinda have to stand around. No AC so it does get warm in there. I read reviews about the parking prior but I didn't think that people would park that badly. I think it's super inconsiderate, but people parking right in front of the driveway to get in - when theres a lot of space. Luckily I have an SUV so I could go over the curb a bit. There's some huge cracks/holes in the parking lot so part of it is lowkey inaccessible to park on. I wish they'd smooth out the lot and paint lines so people know how to park better.

It usually costs me between $20-$25 weekly for my family of four, which is incredibly reasonable when I think of the time it saves me from washing/folding my own laundry. I have been using their wash and fold services every week (sometimes twice a week) for about 2 years. I found them when I hurt my back moving and couldn't carry a heavy laundry basket filled with clothes for a family of 4 down/up the stairs to our washing machine in the basement. I can pull up in front of Park Central Cleaners and the owner will come out and get the basket from my car. He also carries the folded laundry back out to my car when it's ready the next day. The dry cleaning services are cheap, fast & excellent as well. Also, they have fixed buttons, mended tears, sown on patches, repaired hems, etc, for me for free or for a very small fee. I have always been thrilled with the result. What started as a necessity because of my injury has become something I really enjoy. Park Central Cleaners always does an excellent job for a great price. I highly recommend their services to anyone!
