Monterey Express Wash

Maybe costs a bit more, but a very well run and well maintained place. Full time and very helpful attendant also.

Clean, quick, fair. Monja is amazing! It’s all around just perfect if you can’t do laundry at home.

Best laundry mat ever been. I’ve been here for quite a long time before renovate. After the renovation it looks very clean, very convenient. The attendant are there all the time, and are very friendly. And you don’t have to worry about your laundry if you keep there for a while. Highly recommended.

$ 7.25 for just a wash. Decent machines though. Also they changed the name on the building to just ‘Launderette’

I haven’t been to other laundromats, so I can’t really compare this place to others, but this doesn’t feel like one! I told the woman working here that it was my first time here and she was so sweet, she came over to help me with working the washer/​dryer! It’s open, bright, has new washer/​dryers, and they’re super easy to use. They have 2 different sized washers so if you have a smaller load, you don’t have to spend the same $ for a big load, it’s $ 4.00 for the cold temperature wash (#4). Best part is that you get a free dry (1.50 value) — 35 minutes — with every wash if you get a loyalty card, which I highly recommend! The dryers are huge, so low or medium heat should work with a small wash load. It’s not in a shady area, and trust me, I’m someone who’s never had to go to a facility to do my laundry and I don’t mind coming here at all. I would still come here during the day though!
For someone who is new to the area, it’s hard to spot from the road because it doesn’t actually say Monterey Express Wash on the store front, but turn at the first left you can if you’re coming from the 1, as you turn left onto Soledad Dr after you pass Pacific, to get into the parking lot. This place has some seating, fast/​free WiFi, just ask for the ID/​pass and restrooms are for customers only. If you’re looking to charge, you are out of luck, because there are no plugs by the seating area! There’s also a change machine in case you want to use coins, but it takes credit cards, and the loyalty card. They sell laundry pods and dryer sheets for some small change, so if you don’t feel like bringing your own, or forgot yours, they have it. They even have self-​serve coffee as you wait! Great customer service! Definitely coming here every time I need to do laundry!

Loyalty card makes things quick and convienient with a nice offer of not only $ 1 for every $ 10 deposit add a free dry also. Nice job keeping it clean, I like the large individual folding areas, WiFi and the fact that its not dry and hot in there its refreshing.

This is a great place to wash. I moved here about a year ago and went to many different laundry places and this has been the best so far. They have new machines and plenty of them. The staff is very helpful and nice. The best thing about this place is that if you wash here you get a free dry! For me that’s worth the money, and that’s why I keep coming back.

Best Laundromat I’ve ever been to.
New washers and dryers. You can load money onto a card no fee or balance minimum-​NO MORE ROLLS OF QUARTERs!!! Also drying is free when you have a card.
attendants clean washers frequently. There is an overall lack of sketchiness here… no bums, creeps, goblins. Free and fast wifi is a big plus. I’m always in and out in about an hour, time is too precious to waste on laundry.

Been using this laundromat very often over several months and have nothing but good things to say. I can wash three large loads and dry them completely within an hour. They’ve got awesome machines that take credit, debit and loyalty cards. I highly recommend the loyalty cards: drying is free and for every $ 10 spent, you get $ 1 added onto the card’s value. Their wi-​fi Ian outstanding too! They will always have my business in Monterey.

Very clean. Attendant on duty. All state-​of-​the-​art equipment — what’s the low rating $$$
While the dryers may be state-​of-​the-​art, they are not hot enough. This has been on-​going since they re-​opened.
Case-​in-​point, did a large wash and normally hang my clothes on a line in my yard — but with the rain it’s been impossible! I grudgingly took my laundry here — I stopped using this facility many months ago because of the cost and in-​efficiency of the dryers. I only dried, 3 pairs of panties, 2 bras and a very lightweight sleeper — 7 minutes. Oddly enough, the sleeper dried, but the others were still damp after seven minutes.
When I asked the attendant, she explained, «These dryers take a minute or two to ‘warm-​up’. She offered another cycle, but I was so angry (again), I declined.
If the dryers take a minute or two to ‘warm up’, then program them for 8 min or 9 min. Although this facility is within 2 miles of my home, I prefer going to Carmel Rancho or Sudz in PG.

Expensive but new washers and dryers. Also within walking distance from my motel so it was convenient. Has good WiFi connectivity. Closes at 8pm, which is a little early.
Also I posted a photo of the storefront, which is not «Monterey Express Wash». Look for a laundromat in a small plaza next to the market.

Traveling and needed to run a load or two of laundry. Very clean, safe, takes debit cards so you don’t need $ 20 worth of quarters, extremely helpful attendant. Going to give laundromats a good reputation.

We are traveling from Texas in our RV. This place is super clean, the machines are easy to use (quarters or credit card), even the smaller machines hold a big load (6 people’s clothes/​towels/​swimsuits for 7 days and only used 2 washers). Free wifi that actually works and has a strong signal, the dryers will even text you when your clothes are finished drying. Laundromats have come a LONG way since I was in college. Couldn’t have asked for a better place but the BEST part was the woman who works here. She was immediately there to help with a beautiful smile and welcoming attitude. Hope she owns the place, if not… SHE NEEDS A RAISE!

I love this place! I come in every week or so and drop off my laundry for them to wash, and they are just wonderful! First of all they are always friendly, they remember me and what I like with my clothing. Price per pound of clothing is very reasonable as well. They can get any stain out of clothing too. Everything is folded nicely for you with good shirts on hangers. And it is always done in a prompt manner, either that day or the next morning if you come in late. I would definitely recommend this place!

This is my new favorite place! The laundry machines at my apartment complex suck, so I searched on here a close by place and wha-​la! Love it! It’s a bit pricy, but you can pack so much into one machine, it’s worth it. I had to do so much laundry and there was no way I was going to have enough quarters– luckily you can use your card here!
$ 1.50 for a dry cycle is the best.

$ 6.75 for mid size washer pretty high tech with the new washers and dryers. They offer loyalty cards which you can load money into and swipe kind of like a Debit card for each machine. Dryers can be used for .25 or swipe the card for $ 1.50. The place is clean with plenty of working equipment. The lady working had an attitude when I inquired about my balance on my loyalty card, but she did give me my balance and loaded more money for me. I am still pretty new at how the whole laundry facility works specially with the new washers and dryers. So make sure to ask how to use the machines. Overall I gave this place 3 stars for the cleanliness of the facility and having working washers and dryers. But better customer service would help. I come here because it’s closest thing to where I live.

This place used to be pretty run down, but they’ve recently remodeled with all new equipment that is VERY nice. All machines now accept credit cards as well as quarters. It’s a bit more expensive than it used to be, but still cheaper (and much nicer) than some local laundrymats. I’ve tried ‘em all, and this is the best laundry on the Monterey Peninsula.

The place looks clean and new. For a traveller it is a great place to do laundry. And easy payment with credit cards at all machines. I will definitely return here next time I visit Monterey.

The ladies at the Fluff and Fold rock my world!!! If you haven’t used this service yet, please gather up your dirties and send them over. They are the BEST!!!

I am not a big fan of doing laundry and I don’t drive so their current deal of Free pickup and delivery for their «fluff and fold» service I was excited. Clothes came back fresh and clean and neatly folded for only $ 1.25 a pound! Customer service was great from both the driver and the girl who answered the phone when I called. Will be using them again for sure.
