Long Giang Dang Laundromat

I have been coming here to do my laundry for years now. Their hours are better than most in this neighborhood. It’s also not too cramped and not overly busy and reasonable. You can usually get a washer or dryer without waiting. The only downside is that for some reason the washing machines take more like 40 minutes than 25 minutes so just make sure to plan for the extra time. The owners are nice and the lady with the red hair that is being referred to here does not own this place, she just lives in that building and hangs out here so noone should penalize this place for her being there and honestly she is an old lady and why let her bother you? She is just the super of that building and this is her hang out. Why take her so seriously? She is harmless. I get a kick out of her and she is always nice to me… this still is little Italy and she is a neighborhood fixture… Thank God we still have some!!!

Beware of the angry red headed troll that hangs out there. She thinks she owns the place. I’ve stopped going here & will return when she dies (should be soon).

I’ve been coming here for about a year just to use the washers and dryers. It’s been fine, just a laundromat. I finally decided to stick around while my clothes were washing to see if the choice of «cold, warm, or hot» actually matters. Turns out, NO it doesn’t. THEY NEVER HAVE HOT WATER. How are my whites and towels supposed to get clean in freeeeezing cold water? GO ELSEWHERE if you need the most basic and necessary element of a laundromat.
Oh, and stay away from the short white lady with red hair who, I believe, owns the place. I’ve heard her screaming at her customers. Quite an unpleasant woman.

Do you like having your favorite, very expensive cashmere sweater ruined? If so, come to Long Giang Dang Laundromat.
I had hopes that a nicer looking laundromat in «Soho» may be able to care for my favorite sweater better than my usual spot on the LES. The sweater is black cashmere, kimono style, with a band resting at your hips. Now the sweater was admittedly stretched out a very small amount after wearing it a couple of times… Usually a good dry cleaning will bring it back to perfect standing.
I arrived back a week later to find that there was an upcharge of $ 5 in addition to the $ 5.50 on my ticket as the lady explained «it was a sweater dress» in broken english. I looked over and it was stretched out down to knee level ON A WIRE HANGER!
At normal dry cleaners, nice sweaters are folded nicely with tissue paper and hung over a padded hanger while folded… but this dry cleaner apparently thinks it’s OK to suspend fine cashmere on a wire, ruining the garment… and making a dress out of my once loved kimono top.
NEVER GO HERE. Please… stay away unless you want your items ruined!
