Steven the general manager went above and beyond helping me cancel my account. I called as I was moving back home to help my mom, and he couldn’t have been more kind about canceling my service! He was so professional thanked me for my business and said if you ever come back come and see us! My best friend and her family live in Galt so when I visit I sure will. That’s true customer service, during a cancellation. They have the best customer service and it’s less expensive 100% come here!

Confusing entry to put my car onto their conveyor belt. It might have just been me though, the next time would be easier so not a huge deal as it was quickly rectified. They don't take credit card which was the bigger issue and why I docked one star. I was lucky I had cash on me. I took a second star off for pricing. You're essentially paying for a gas station automated car wash. It is a little more thorough because the machines are washing your car for longer and I think you get to use their vacuums on your car after the wash (totally optional & free). All things considered, if you're going to do the cheapest package, just go to a gas station car wash instead. It's a few bucks cheaper and basically the same thing. The higher tier/premium packages that they offer might be worth it for you though.

This place was terribly AWESOME! I took my dog through the car wash (in the car) she loved looking out the window at it all, it got my car ultra clean and was an enjoyable experience for myself with all the colors and scents. Then I vacuumed, very powerful suction. Lastly for my car I washed my floor mats in this weird contraption they have and they were spotless. I spilled some vegetable glycerin on it a few months back and it was impossible to remove until I used the strange machine. Then I washed my dog in their dog bathtub. I shampooed and conditioned then dried her, she loved it! Next I will be taking my son to enjoy the show! But I won't be bathing him in the dog bath.

A good car wash at a good price. They also have a unlimited monthly plan which is good for people who like to wash their car at least once a week. Free vacuums, friendly staff and you can wash your dog too if you are so inclined.

I got the most comprehensive car wash and I was happy with most of it. The people there were nice but my car didn't get clean all the way. I have a minivan and the back of the car didn't get clean. There was still dirt and a lot of streaks. I was disappointed since it was pricy. The rest of the car and tires looked great. So 4 starts.

The dog wash was adorable and great for my pup! We had the snoop dog voice going all through the wash. Very surprised to see that they offer a flea wash that has a strong citrus smell but, it doesn't last very long after the wash out. Do recommend if your dog is short haired that you bring a towel since the air dryer is better for long haired dogs.

Horrible experience today, had to run through the car wash twice because the soap was not removed because I believe the vehicles were too close together vehicle behind me was somewhere around 2-3 ft behind me. Turned in one more time lined up for the second time and once again the attendant directing the vehicle behind me to close literally 2-3 ft behind me once again. So close the rear brush didn’t complete its function, it moved on to the vehicle behind me once again. I suggest management train their employees to make sure they understand all or any dangers associated with the car wash operation. Stacking vehicles to close together is unsafe, mind you I’m a customer that visits two to three times a week and this is the first time I’ve experienced the vehicles being so close to cause concern. Please insure your employees are knowledgeable on what and how your system works. Thank you .

This car wash is a combination of automated and manual. 2 people scrub your vehicle with a brush front and back before you enter the automated wash. They always seems to do a very good job as far as automated goes and the price is reasonable. The associates are always friendly if you need their assistance.

The 3 star is completely situational. We have a monthly pass for all three of our vehicles. Either we have horrible timing or it's broken down a lot? The staff is nice. Overall the cars get clean. If and when they are up and running. Paying kiosk is often broken. Lines get long due to only one kiosk being available. Is that not the purpose of paying monthly so you can be in and out quicker? Don't get me wrong a little wait is not that big of a deal but it is so frequent I hope they figure it out soon. It was very convenient and fast when it first opened. Sincerely a loyal customer from the beginning.

Well Gilly’s ruined a good thing when they “simplified” their wash plans. I used to get the $14 plan 1-2 times a week for both of my vehicles but they got rid of it. Now they only have three plans and the $12 plan only offers half of what the middle plans used to be. The two other plans are too expensive and offer too many things. I do not want to get tire shine but I do want undercarriage spray which now I can’t get unless I pay for the two expensive plans which have tire shine and other options I don’t want. When I selected the $12 plan it gave me the option for a $4 upgrade which offered items I wanted and were on the past mid range price plans prior to the “Simplification”. An employee came up and told me the $4 upgrade was a “computer glitch” and it didn’t exist. After Big Sponge changed ownership Gilly’s became the best and most affordable option in Galt. Now that Gilly’s changed their plans it’s no longer that place and time to find a new car wash to do business with.

Went to get a car wash today 7/23/25 at 3:35 ish and the young men that preps the car at the begging of the car wash went above and beyond to get this crusty car looking good again. They made sure all the leaves and junk came off before pulling into the wash bay. They deserve a raise. Good job.

Went to Billy's to use the dog wash. Wash better than I expected. Took a friend's German shepherd for a much needed bath. The wash was so simple to use. Just like a dog grooming station, and the hot water was great for cold weather. The shampoo and flea shampoo are part of the wash. There's even a hair dryer. And the voice that indicates your selections and time was a surprise, and I'm not spoiling that one. I'm planning to use Gilly's dog wash for all future baths my dog needs.

Amazing car wash! We traveled from Washington State and our car was bad. We did have to go through 2 times due the build up of the dirt and snow over the siskiyou mountain pass. The were friendly and noticed the car could use another cycle and sent us through again. Thank you all!! Highly recommended.

Just got a car wash here and I think it’s amazing! I seen the other bad reviews about the young guy didn’t care well ma’am or sir who wrote that their teenagers doing the best they can and I think they’re doing an extremely good job. Are they gonna be over the top probably not but they’re gonna do their job and do a really good job so I’m very grateful for what I got. Thank you, Gillies.
