This was the second time I used this car wash and what a disappointment! Although there were 5 people “working” on it, one very old woman and one pregnant girl ready to pop and three young men they seemed to be just about blind. I watched them chat and laugh as each one repeatedly wiped the same door with dirty rags while missing the top of my car and the back. I politely tried to point out the missed spots that I could easily see and was told they weren’t done yet. It didn’t get any better. They didn’t even remove the floor mats to vacuum I paid $29.00 before tip I and I could have done a better job at the self wash place! Don’t waste your money here bad job and overpriced !

My dogs fur is ALL over the car, they did a great job getting it up from the carpet… It had been a while since I last washed my car, so they did have their work cut out for them and they did a pretty good job… I will be a returning customer…

I have a black vehicle & all the unwashed spots were easy to notice. Rims were not cleaned during the soap phase as package 2 described "hand wiped". Quick & good prices but not ideal if you are high maintenance like me or have a black vehicle you care about.

I looked everywhere in Castro Valley and Hayward for a full service hand wash service for my new RAV 4 that is only 3 months old. I was very clear that the car was new and that I was nervous. The guy opened a new package of the sponge/rag to ease my nerves and assured me that they do an excellent job. They use a power hose. I watched them like a hawk. They took their time and thorough. My SUV sparked even more than the day we got it at the dealership. Highly recommend them.

The car wash is quick and do a pretty good job. I say pretty good because they could do a better job On cleaning the inside of the windshield. That is my only negative. Kinda of a pet peeve with me because smudges distract me while driving. I do trust that they will improve and have gone back several times.

They did a great job. It’s refreshing to see a car wash business doing hand wash only. No drive through’s which can ruin your paint in the long run. The whole process took only 20 minutes. I will definitely come back.

I get my car washed here at least once a week. I used to have a monthly subscription at the Quick Quack but the difference between hand washed and automated car washes are night and day. These guys are always super friendly and have my car looking perfect.

They do a solid job cleaning, usually I just do 20+tip for the cheapest exterior wash but occasionally 30+tip for the interior as well. It’s good value plus they work quickly and are friendly!

My vehicle only gets treated by hand! This is the SPOT, they’ll stand there and listen to my concerns & accept my feedback or how picky I am about detailing, the moment I point out something they missed they take care of it.

I discovered this place online today and it turns out to be a place I’d thought about using for car wash services and just hadn’t until today. I am so glad I did! My car looks as good - or better - as the day I bought it and for just $30 with kindly customer service. I only needed a car wash then extensive vacuuming and service cleaning which are all included in this basic services price for a sedan. I would have liked to leave a bigger tip for all their efforts but 20% had to do today. I will add more next time. What a great find near home!

After searching for a good car wash I ended up here. The reviews were great, but I was not 100% happy with the job they did. I expected a better job some spots on the exterior still had dust on it and the interior had some cleaning solution that was not wiped off completely. I mentioned a window that was still dirty and the man checked it and said it was clean, but it was not, I could see where they wiped and where they didn’t. The inside of my trunk liner was wet not sure why. They vacuumed there but why was it wet? I payed for the deluxe but felt like I got the standard!!!! And no fragrance!!!!

This place is amazing for a car wash!! The price is great and they clean the inside and outside so meticulously. My car hasn’t looked this clean in years. I’ll only be coming to this place in the future to get my car clean!

have been coming to this car wash for 4-6 years, but after my most recent experience under the new ownership, I will never return. I brought my Escalade in for a wash, and when I got it back, it was covered in scratches. It looked like they either used the wrong chemicals or improper cleaning tools, causing damage all over my vehicle. When I pointed this out to the employee, instead of taking responsibility or even looking into the issue, he immediately blamed me, claiming the scratches were already there. That was a blatant lie because multiple people, including employees at the neighboring repair shop and gas station (who know my car well), confirmed that these scratches were not there before. When I tried to contact the new owner, Ali, he was extremely unprofessional and disrespectful. The moment I got on the phone with him, he started yelling at me, demanding to know who gave me his number. When I told him it was his own employee, he refused to listen, told me to get off his property, started cussing at me, and even threatened me with a restraining order, claiming I was “harassing” his staff—when all I did was ask for a solution to the damage they caused. He even went as far as trying to FaceTime me just to see my face while continuing to cuss me out before hanging up. Thankfully, I have everything on video to prove how I was treated. It’s a shame to see a business I supported for years turn into this. If you care about your vehicle and want to be treated with respect, avoid this place at all costs under the new ownership. Ali has no business running a customer-facing operation.

So disappointed on this car wash. I like the fact that this is 100% carwash but the issue is how they cleaned the interior. They sprayed my car interior with the protective shiner. But they missed so many spots to wipe. The interior looks like someone fried a chicken inside my car. There so many oily dots all over the panels. For $45 without a tip, it's a horrible job cleaning the interior. I still have to clean the interior the next day because it's still dirty and dusty. Also, the guy who wash the car he's smoking at the same time. Not going back.

I called ahead of time, and confirmed they would be open till 5:30pm. I showed up at 3:30 and they turned me away because they decided to close early. I was really counting on this and planned ahead, and im sincerely disappointed that they mislead me and wasted my time.. dont promote a business hour youre not willing to fulfill. It’s terrible business

I been coming here for almost a year now and I never really had any issues. It’s all hand wash and they use pressure washers. It’s pretty consistent on the work they do but there’s times where they forget a few small areas inside the vehicle, as long as you let them know they will make it right. I’ll continue to come here since it’s one of the better car washes in the area they even pressure wash rubber floor mats with the #2 package! I’m giving them 5/5 for good customer service and pretty good job overall.
