Woodside Laundry

The window says they’re open until 10pm and they have a sign that the last load is at 9pm. Pretty clear, right? So I had brought in a comforter and woven rug to get washed because my apartment washer and dryer were too small. At 8:45p I came in to check on them in the dryer & the owner approached me and let me know that my rug was too heavy and kept opening up the door. He kindly blocked the door with a cart to keep it closed. I was appreciative! He told me it wouldn’t be dry, which I expected and I put in more quarters and kept it blockaded closed. I came back at 9:30pm and he told me that he and his wife were waiting for me to come back. I apologized and told them I thought they closed at 10pm. He pointed to the sign that the last load is at 9pm, which to me meant no new loads could be started after 9pm. He pointed out no one else was there, which made it sound like they could have left earlier if it werent for me. But it said they were open until ten. So then I felt guilty :(So I asked him if I done something wrong and misunderstood and he wouldn’t communicate with me. He finally said it was fine. His wife then talked to him in spanish and began scratching the hours sign off the window. I tried to apologize to her and she wouldn’t speak to me in English so I sadly attempted to apologize in Spanish. By the end of my experience, I did not feel welcomed by them and my belongings were still wet (I wasn’t going to use the last half hour of their being open to finish my laundry because they were waiting on me so they could go home). I mean, I guess they could have been worse and locked up with my things still in there. I did see a sign that they keep unclaimed laundry for three days. Not the friendly laundry mat I was expecting and my expectations were pretty low to begin with.

When they say stay with your wash, they mean it.
I needed to wash a comforter that got stained because of a cat hairball .
Dropped off the laundry in one of their large capacity washers at about noon on a weekday.
Went next door for a taco, came back and the washer had been emptied (after about 20 or 30 minutes).
They stole a WET comforter!
Avoid this place at all costs.
