Mr Car Wash

4 stars for hand-​wash exterior and 1 star for interior cleaning. I will not be returning for any interior cleaning, but I will continue to get the exterior washed here.
I have been to Mr. Car Wash a half dozen times for exterior only. On the bright side, the workers are super friendly, usually speedy and I like supporting a local small business. However yesterday I went to get the interior cleaned by them for the first time — I usually do that myself to save money, but a friend of mine had her interior done by them and said they did a great job, so I figured I’d give it a try. I paid $ 70 for their mini express plus and left the car for three hours — and told them I would come back right before closing — so they’d have plenty of time. When I went to pick the car up, I was disappointed that there was obvious dirt and hair in the backseat. They told me that Mini Express Plus ($ 70) includes EITHER seat shampoo or carpet shampoo, and I had specifically requested the seat cleaning, but I didn’t see how that explained the dirt and hair that should’ve been picked up by vacuuming. No matter, the young man who works there apologized and told me they’d shampoo the carpets real quick. I do appreciate their attempt to mitigate the situation. Then I came home and took a closer look. The outside & wheels looked great, but that’s only $ 15 of it — the other $ 55 appears to have gone to haphazard vacuuming and spot cleaning. I just finished vacuuming and cleaning the substantial amounts they missed (see pics) The menu for mini express ($ 40) says no dog hair under vacuuming, but that disappears at the mini express plus ($ 70) level so I assumed that was covered. Mini express plus also specified cup holder cleaning. Also, the $ 20 Manager’s Special includes a trunk vacuum, so I assume the $ 70 level includes trunk vacuum. There is no way they even looked in my trunk — it was COVERED in dirt!
I understand the concept of «you get what you pay for» but I don’t think this was worth $ 55 on the interior. I found 3 – 4 pieces of trash under and between seats as well.
Again, I’ll return for exterior cleaning but I cannot justify paying $ 55 more for a crap interior cleaning.

13.95 for small SUVs apparently. Put that next to the big 10.95 sign when you drive us please or tell me when I pull up.
Also, noticed the car still had a lot of dirt all over when I got home.

I had an amazing experience here getting my car thoroughly cleaned, inside and out, including seat and carpet shampoo. They were incredibly accommodating as I walked in with no appointment, and they did a far superior job compared to any other car wash. They pay close attention to detail, including the insides of cup holders and door pockets, and my stained seats and carpets looked brand new when I went to pick it up. I also thought the price for the service I received was reasonable. Will continue to return!

i have a handful of cars washed every week, always looking for the best wash/​deal/​location,
i have been disappointed before, but never like this (2^nd trip here, & last) at $ 16.00 i feel i got beat out of $ 16.00, first time i felt i would have been robbed if it had been free, posted photos

Honestly the BEST car wash I have had in Denver. They take their time to really clean your car. I have an SUV and after an awesome 4^th of July weekend in the mountains on loads of dirt reads my entire care was coated with dirt inside and out. I left my car there so they could work on it for a few hours. When i came to pick it up I was so happy! They totally cleaned every nook and cranny. I have had numerous bad car washes in Denver, and had started to believe maybe i needed to do it myself. I was so happy to find this place, I will only go to Mr Car wash from now on. Super affordable as well.

I went in hoping to get a good carwash on the exterior as well as some attention to the interior of my vehicle. After my experience, I do not think this place it worth the time or money that you will spend. As others have written, it can take some time to have your car cleaned. I waited about 30 minutes. I would not have minded this if when I returned to my car is was thoroughly cleaned. Plain and simple, they did a lousy job on the interior of the car and the exterior was just decent (comparable to what you get with a «do it yourself» wash at a much higher price).
The search for a good carwash continues!

I agree with the other poor reviews. Thought I was getting a quick, affordable wash. Due to time, I went with the $ 14 basic. After 40 minutes waiting, then having to rush off to get back to work, I noticed that the inside wasn’t vacuumed or wiped down.
Thoroughly unimpressed. As a small business owner myself I also wonder why after choosing to support the small business, nobody says hello, or thank you. Missed opportunity.

Just as an update to my review. I was just contacted by the owner first calling me a liar and my wife a liar. All I did is call to speak with the owner after my wife left this so called business. He was very rude on the phone, denied everything, and hung up on me. After that conversation I chose to write my first review. The car was scratched when they pulled the car in to actually wash it (the space is very tight). Based on the owners response just tells me along with everyone else what kind of place this is. For the record when I called I was looking to come to an amicable solution for what happened. I love to support local businesses in any way I can. The situation escalated after what was said on the phone.

I can understand waiting, and can understand lines. They have no system in place to deal with anyone who has to wait. I was cut off by 4 cars and no one spoke to me. When it was my turn I pulled up to get into the wash area, and the kid working told me that yes, I was late, but I needed to pull forward for a moment before he would Get me in. What followed was another 2 cars cutting in front of me and pulling right in. No explanation, no checking with me, and no apology. I left. Anywhere would be a better bet. Drove 40 minutes out of my way to go elsewhere

Thought I was getting a decent car wash for $ 15. They took almost 30 minutes to wash it. Couldn’t tell. They didn’t even vacuum out the center console, didn’t wash all windows, didn’t vacuum floor mats, and did a lousy job on the exterior. You would think that a car wash by hand would be better then a machine. not here. I posted pics to show all things above.

This is a quick stop and go place but I have to be completely honest. The entrance is tricky. If they have two car getting washed you have to wait on the street and it could back up traffic. People were honking because they didn’t get why there is a line of cars going no where. Also I only wanted the exterior washed. A normal wash is 12 which includes inside and out. They asked if I wanted my wheels washed and I said of course, why would I not. But they don’t tell you is cost extra. So to get just the exterior washed it cost me 14 bucks. A little too pricey for me considering I can get my car washed and detailed for 8 bucks plus a tip elsewhere. When I looked at the back bumper there was still a bunch of dirt on the underside. Not super happy to say the least.

I usually don’t leave reviews and am typically a very easy and happy customer. My car was pretty dirty and I wanted a full detail. I paid $ 60 so I expected just about all the dirt to be gone. Looking over my car, there is a ton a dirt still. Even on the rims which werent even that bad to begin with. And Im talking dirt that would just take a little scrub and would be gone. Not stains. Also, they popped open part of my center console to get the cup divider out which I now have to figure out how to fix. They said it was like that when I brought it in, but Im certain I would have noticed a half inch gap in my cup holder. They werent busy at all and I tipped them without looking my car over (bad mistake) so no excuses. I will not go back and dont recommend it unless your car is already pretty clean and you just need a light wash. The one guy helping me was really nice and he was really trying, so I gave him an extra star… But sorry results werent worth the money.

If you can get in here while there are no cars (my last visit), this place is definitely worth it!
I’ve been 5+ times and it’s been a little hit or miss. 3 of the 5 times, they’ve been spot on (or spots… off. haha?) and I felt like the cost & wait-​time were worth the result.
But, 2 of the 5 times, I have been disappointed — once because my car was only clean on the outside when I paid for both interior and exterior to be done (to be fair, they had a long line of cars behind me, but still!). The second time I was quoted «1 hour» and it took much, much longer (2.5+ hours).
Conclusion:
–This is not the place to go if you are in a hurry (unless, like I said above, there are no cars in line ahead of you, though, even then you are looking at 20 – 30 min. wait time — that’s how long I waited for my «Manager Special» wash with 0 cars ahead of me) hint: show up right at opening.
–Great place if you have the time, fair prices
–Customer Service could use some help — the guys washing my car were really nice but when the owner came into the small «waiting room» to take my money, he just asked what car I had, checked some of his mail while I stood there waiting for him to take my credit card (oh yeah, they take credit cards!), and after he took my money, he just walked out. I suppose at least he was efficient.. .?

Just one quick review (a first for me !) DOUBLE CHECK YOUR BANK ACCOUNT after going to Mr Car Wash !!!
They basically charge me double the price (41.95 $ instead of 21.95 $).
I ve been back to have my refund and they have not apologize at all, saying that «it can happen», «they have already plenty of customers if i am not happy i can wash my car somewhere else». That s exactly what i am going to do !
Be careful … THIEVES !

A little tricky to park, but these guys do a great job and are very thorough. You pull up on 38^th and if there is room inside, you drive inside. Entrance is awkward but great Highlands location & great work from 12.95.

They are good for a basic wash. If you want interior done and you have a dog you better do it yourself. They wanted 145 dollars to clean interior of my jeep.

Great place! I’m a local so I always like to support local businesses. These guys are very thorough and will not try and up sell you like most other car washes I’ve been to. The outside appearance of Mr. Car Wash is very basic but their work is far from it.
My truck was a disaster as I had just gotten back from Pinney Lake in Vail. I mean covered in dust from bumper to tailgate. They did interior and exterior, washed my seats and floors, dash board and even that weird spot exterior of the car but inside the door.
I would highly recommend Mr. Car Wash if you live or are just visiting the Highlands. Taking another truck in today!

What a great find. Don’t let the unassuming exterior fool you. It’s what’s inside that counts.
These guys are down to earth and honest about giving the best service and the best value. Just step into their waiting room and you’ll see how customer oriented they are.
Excellent quality. Excellent value. I’ll never go anywhere else.

Don’t be scared by the appearance, this place is solid.
I have a black SUV so it’s a pain trying to keep it clean. I’ve been to a dozen places around town and always feel like it’s a corporate chain. Mr Car Wash gave me the exact opposite feeling. It’s a small family business that is invested in making sure you’re happy with the finished product … a clean car.
The process takes a little longer that your typical car wash because it’s all done by hand. It’s worth the extra time and they have a cozy waiting room (with WiFi) to hang out while you wait.
I’m a fan, and will return the next time my car needs a bath.

Friendly and thorough service at a good price.

Three years later prices have increased slightly and the service is still excellent.
I had the $ 12 vacuum, wash and dry and they did an excellent job. I look forward to return visits.
The big shock here is the waiting room. Totally unexpected with with engineered hardwood flooring, a sofa and a restaurant-​style booth.
They have free Wi-​Fi (shared with Caminito Tango restaurant) which is good given that you spend at least ½ hour in the waiting room.
P. S. I could double their business with two simple signs out front:
1. Enter Here
2. $ 11.95 Full Service Wash
