The customers also appreciate the number of size machines accessible, including a number of large washers for big, bulky loads. There are crowding issues at the facility, worse during peak times and on weekends. Prices are very reasonable, considering the option to vary sizes of loads. In general, the facility is clean, though there are complaints about odors in the machines. Some customers might view a lack of attendants or drop-off service as a disadvantage. On the whole, it would appear that Wash House provides the community with a reliable laundry service open at all times. Indeed, for the best experience, one is encouraged to visit during its off-peak hours. The business could, therefore, stand to gain much by addressing the crowding, improving machine maintenance, and considering customer-friendly additions like better clothes buggies.
