Midtown Wash

We went on a cruise out of Ft. Lauderdale and decided to drive to Atlanta to visit MLK’s campus along with the other heritage rich things to do in ATL. Problem was we had no clean clothes! Well the hotel manager at The Downtown Atlanta Hyatt Place suggested Midtown Wash and we are so glad she did. We are from Los Angeles and knew nothing about Atlanta. We Google Mapped our way through the downtown neighborhoods into what we later learned was Midtown — a suburb of mid to middle high class primarily educated neighborhood protecting people! Kim, the manger of Midtown Wash was friendly and down to earth. Honestly we had not been to a laundromat in 15 years and were intimidated and lost on how to operate the modern day machines. I’ve never seen a washer that takes debit cards! The machines and facility was clean, quant, modem and appropriate. They offered various types of liquid detergent, bleach, change machines, snack vending, dryer sheets and even a very clean bathroom. The business dubs as a fluff n fold and dry cleaning. Also offered was delivery service. Kim walked us through which washing machines to use based on the size/​weight of our loads of laundry and did the same for which dryers. Kim also took the time to suggest restaurants, tourist attractions and advised which neighborhoods to avoid. I highly recommend Midtown Wash!

I come here every week to wash my clothes and other things. Interior is very nice and pleasant to sit and wait. Everything is very clean. So, use this service very often. My neighbors also use it, and give a lot of positive recommendations.
Washing is going very fast, after this you can dry it. Also they provide free coffee and Wi-​Fi. Sometimes I come here with my laptop and do my work, so good economy of time.
Recommend!

This place is pretty decent. Big washers and dryers I see they upgraded and have debit card payments available at the washers and dryers. the first time I came they didn’t.so that’s def a plus. I wasn’t going to comeback because of that specifically because it’s such a hassle with quarters. I’ll definitely b coming here more frequently now.

I’ve been going here every week for 2 years, they can’t get it together at all with the dry cleaning, and now have shrunk my favorite expensive sweater and won’t pay to reimburse me for it 3 weeks later. Stay away!

It was my first time and Ms Vette was so friendly and helped me out because I had no idea what I was doing!!! She definitely deserves a raise thank you so much!

I live about 10 – 15 minutes away from this little laundry spot, but it’s worth the drive. I usually come here between the hours of 7:00 and 11:00am, and it’s never been crowded. This laundromat is very, very clean, and all of the machines appear to be functioning. There is a coin machine, but all of the machines also take cards. Cycles run less than 30 minutes for wash and less than 40 for dry. They have large machines and drop-​off laundry service as well. What really keeps me coming back to this place though is how comfortable it is. There are plenty of chairs and a few tables to sit at while you wait, lots of natural light, and tons of magazines and a snack/​drink machine. There are also usually chairs outside if you want to enjoy the morning air in this quaint Poncey-​Highland neighborhood.

I came here with two large comforters to wash because I didn’t want to pay out the nose at the dry cleaners. After all, these are just down alternative comforters to fill duvets. The place is clean, cool (lots of ceiling fans… and Southerners know how important that is in this hot, sticky Georgia weather), great 80’s music playing, lots of full size detergents for purchase, plus a vending machine with smaller sizes, refreshment vending machine, free wifi. They even do dry cleaning and/​or wash/​fold for you. I mean, what more do you really need? The super nice lady at the front, Lanita, was extremely helpful to me. Although I’ve had to go to laundromats in the past, I hadn’t been to this one, so I needed assistance at first with the machines, mostly because they take credit/​debit cards and I needed instructions on how to use them. She even provided me with free dryer sheets because I use fragrance-​free detergent and decided I wanted my comforters to smell a little fragrant after the wash. If you have to use a laundromat, this is the place. I am so happy to have found it!

I was really excited to try this place because it had great reviews on here, looked clean and nice and safe.
I wasn’t even in the door and an attendant said last wash was over, 5 minutes ago. Ok i was a little late but good customer service would be showing a little slack in the interest of good business.
I call that rude. Don’t rush over here.

Love, this laundry mat, customer service is excellent. The women that operate this store, Stephanie and Laneda are absolutely on the ball. I have been coming here for two years and it’s always the same great service. Although ownership has changed, the lady’s are the same.

Nice place. Very happy with the wash and fold. I thought it was a little pricey for the amount of clothes I brought — there was a 10 lb min @ $ 15 and I had only about 5 lbs. Same day service.

3.5 i giv. Parking for cars is on the rd. kind of inconvenient. Pretty big inside. Its part of a building & on a corner. Bring coins. Does take card i believe. Free wifi. Gonna post a pic on how these laundromats do. I feel they short us on water. Oh. &&&&& you haveee toooo use $ 2 for dryer MINIMUM. Which is 32mins. Gonna try some where else. Though this place is decent.

Let me start by saying I really want to like midtown wash. They are open later than any other laundry service I know of and their employees are generally friendly and helpful.
HOWEVER, their dry cleaning service is disappointing. I’ve had four shirts over the course of the past couple months that have had buttons either damaged or yanked off completely. I’ve tried to bring this to the attention of management, but their always ‘out of the store’ and I’m told to call back — it’d be nice for them to call me back.
Also, the turn around time is sooo long — around 3 biz days if you’re lucky.
I will say that when a pair of pants got damaged, they eventually took back the pants and corrected the cleaning. Hopefully, the shirts will be the same. #fingerscrossed

So convenient to my house, everyone is friendly and always helpful. They also have free wifi and have hot coffee if you are dragging. I never have to run my clothes twice and it is always super clean. I met the owner today and lets just say what a darn nice guy! you will always have my business!

This was one of the cleanest and well run laundry mats I’ve ever been in. The dryers worked in one cycle. $ 3.25 for a washer and $ 1.25 for a dryer. $ 4.50 a load. Tenants cleaned up the washers after every load. In a quiet neighborhood. Very impressed.

I wish I had consulted the Unilocal reviews before heading here tonight but I have been here before and only checked their website for their hours. Their website states they are open until 10pm so when I arrived at 8:55 to do a load of darks and a load of whites I thought, «No problem. That’s plenty of time to wash and dry and be out by close.» I was wrong. They have a strict policy of an 8:30pm cut off time to start your wash. I feel their marketing and social media sites should reflect this so not to inconvenience their customers who drag their laundry down there only to be told they can’t wash it after the Midtown Wash staff watches them unload it from the car.
On my previous day time visit I did find the place to be spacious, very clean and all the equipment was in working order. The free wi-​fi was an added bonus to kill time while waiting.

Wash and fold services are amazing!!! I’ve never seen folding done with such precision. Seriously you never want to put your clothes away from fear of messing them up. I promise you’ll find yourself unfolding your clothes to learn how to refold your other clothes! And they are always on time and friendly.

This laundry is, indeed, beautiful. They have a «free washing detergent» day and they offer coffee in the mornings. It’s relatively quiet and the equipment is great!
However… It bugs me that they still use coins! I could look past that and still consider them if the lady time I’d gone I hadn’t had an incident with the attendant. Even though she herself outs black, I honestly think she has an issue with certain black males.
It was near closing time when she asked about a load of laundry in a machine. When she asked the white couple, she was all smiles and rainbows. But when she realized it belonged to my boo, who was dressed in what some might consider «urban» attire… well let’s just say her whole demeanor changed. All of a sudden she looked annoyed. Maybe even disgusted.
She curtly let us know that we would not be able to dry once our clothes were finished and walked away. Really? Cool.
She’d never seen the boo before and the time I’d been there before that, she was so bubbly and helpful that she even helped me fold my sheets.
Watching how her attitude and demeanor changed within a few seconds really concerns me, so I haven’t been back. I don’t even know if she still works there but I’ve been put off ever since…

Phew. Very long, mixed review ahead.
First: I got a load of wash-​and-​fold done here, and it was excellent. Very fast, very clean and wonderful-​smelling, perfectly folded, shirts hung. ¹⁰⁄₁₀ would do again if I could afford it which I can’t.
HOWEVER, I also got some dry-​cleaning done here. I left three pairs of pants, two silk shirts, a winter coat, and a sheath dress. I warned them ahead of time that the ponte one pair of pants and the dress were made out of were susceptible to «melting» from heat and asked if that would be a problem; I can always take them elsewhere. They promised it wouldn’t be. I also had them check over my clothes for defects so they couldn’t later claim there was something wrong all along (I am deeply mistrustful of dry cleaners; you’ll see why).
Lo and behold, I pick up my clothes later (and it took a long time– I’m not expecting same day service, but three days when I drop them off at 7am is a bit much) and they’re totally wrecked. I’m not sure how to post pictures here, but rest assured that they are completely unwearable. I posted them on an internet forum and got a dozen replies amounting to «WTF.»
I immediately took them back (Friday) and basically was like «what did you do.» The employee said she couldn’t help me, but agreed it looked horrible, and that the owners would call me on Monday.
No call. I called back on Monday. She said he would call later that day. No call. I called back. She said he would get back to me before the end of the day. Still no call. I call the next day. And the next. And the next. And the next. At one point she says that the owners have taken my clothes «out» to be fixed somewhere. Still no call from the owner. Nothing. I call almost every day, at least every other, for two weeks. No response. Finally the employee says they’re «all better» and I can pick them up. Meanwhile, I have only ONE pair of work pants, for two weeks of work. Not cool.
I go to pick them up and this horrible woman is there who turns out to be one of the owners. Incredibly rude. I’m still trying to be nice at this point even though I hate them virulently. She gets my clothes for me, and I admit, I was impressed. They seemed to have fixed much of the problem. The pants had lost the «melted» look completely, but the dress was still screwy at all of the seams. I work in a professional context, so the dress was unwearable. Looking over the pants, I found a hole that had not been there (and remember, I had the employee check) when I dropped them off. Dead center on the thigh– also unwearable.
The woman is copping the worst attitude with me, and finally throws up her hands and tells her husband he has to «deal with» me. The husband at first tries to say it’s all fixed, that they couldn’t possibly have put the hole in my pants, etc. I’m just like, «okay, you ruined my pants and my dress. Both of them are unwearable. I’m a poor recent grad who can barely afford clothes anyway. And for the past two weeks, I’ve called EVERY day, to the point that your employee recognized my number on the caller ID, and you NEVER called me back, and you DIDN’T fix my clothes. SERIOUSLY???»
Now, you’re probably wondering why I gave them three stars. It’s because at this point, he said «okay. You’re right. What do you want.» And I said, «for you to fix or replace my clothes,» and he asked how much, and I pulled up screenshots that showed that the two items are still in store and together retail for $ 200, and he said, «how about we meet at $ 150,» and I said, «okay.» He even apologized very sincerely, though it was undermined by his wife making incredulous sounds and pulling bitchy faces because she’s awful.
I don’t expect dry cleaners not to make mistakes, only to fix them if they do. And Midtown Wash DID make things right, even if I did have to ride their asses and get in a fight with that horrible woman.
I will never, ever go back.
The wash and fold was great, though.

Really nice service .
ATM dispenses 5 $!
Very clean laundromat and clean restrooms. Everything is so organized and it’s in a safe neighborhood so you won’t have to worry about any body begging for change .
All in all. Awesome laundromat!

You know, if you have to use a laundry mat to do laundry (which is only when I travel), you absolutely cannot beat this place to do it.
First, CLEAN. I’ve never seen such a clean laundry mat in my whole life. Not only that, but they have top notch equipment. They have ever size washer you can imagine and they are all heavy duty. The dryers are awesome, too, but a little overpriced at minimum oif $ 2. I generally don’t like to dry my clothes that long, but it didn’t give me a choice. Trust me, that’s the only downside.
They have everything you could possibly need to do your laundry, too. From detergent, to bleach, to bags to carry your laundry in AND in different varieties. You can get small $ 1 things, like softener or detergent, or for a little more get a bigger size. This is super convenient when traveling. They also have a coin machine which is obvious, but awesome.
They also have quite possibly the cleanest bathroom I’ve ever seen in a public place. They have magazines and TV and outlets for your computer or cell phone along with tables! Tables! Bistro tables! Loved it!
The woman and man who run it are so kind too. I know I’m in the South, but they seemed so genuinely kind and the banter was fun. They were super helpful.
If I lived here I’d almost forgo my washer and dryer so I could come here! Fabulous!
