It's ok. The tire cleaner function has never worked, always just been a squirt of water in the 6 years I've gone here. The machine rarely takes twonies that the change machine gives you, so hope for lots of loonies... it would be nice if when you hit stop the time would stop as wheels are sometimes time consuming to wash properly and this doesn't give you the time to do so... I also think the clear coat is a scam but otherwise always clean and functional. But have Naver left fully satisfied.

Countless times I’ve visited, all of them worse than before. The soap is diluted and pretty much useless and leaves a visible white film on your paint. Bay 4 took $4 via the tap card machine, yet it wouldn’t dispense any water, soap etc. There is no phone number to reach out to for refunds. I would avoid this self car wash at all costs. If you’re in the Orleans area visit the self wash off Youville, or if you want a drive, Lavé auto spa in rockland.

  • brent casimir

Very disappointed. Extremely expensive compared to automatic or Touch-less washes. I paid $24. After following all steps, my car was left with water marks and a white residue. The “foaming soap” is basically cold pressured water. The employee or owner asked me to leave politely. Told me I can’t just “hang out in there” by myself while he watched me towel dry after paying for two blow dry sessions. I left with a wet car…

  • Alex Pratt

Was looking for a self serve wash because we had just driven a long distance and a drive thru wash wouldn't have gotten all the bugs off the vehicle. The water pressure in this place is non existent. Putting your thumb over a hose would get better results. A super soaker would be better. I'm pretty sure I could urinate harder than the "high pressure" setting. Don't bother.

  • Northern Delinquents

I put $6 in the machine and selected high pressure soap and it didn't work for 5 min, I went to see if there was an attendant nearby but the door was locked and nobody answered after multiple Knocks I used to come to this place quite often and was pleased with the service but it has gone downhill. Btw it happened on the right hand Bay furthest to the right

  • Strife Macleod

Every time I go there an old man hashing me I open the bed of pick up truck I had the mat for my wife car and my brother car he come storm up tell I can't wash my truck bed there ... after he get a speech done I show the car Mats to him . He stood around watch the whole time very creepy and uncomfortable avoid if possible

  • Marc Clement

No foam no wax - tell me, what’s the point of having rince only? The pressure is good, but you don’t get what you pay for. Alternative exists in Orléans and Rockland. Btw, I come regular and is never has wax - this is my last time which is unfortunate because I’m relatively close to the place....

  • Andrew Walsh

Why is this business closed 90% of the times that I go during their “open hours”? It’s odd, you would think they want their business to be open and generate income. What’s the point of having a business there that is always closed. Can we please get an “open” car wash perhaps??

  • John Jerry

NOW CLOSED .. NO GREAT LOSS Owners never really cared. Several bays out of service, the one I used was almost unusable as coin machine was askew… took 4$ gave me 3$ of service and then wouldn’t let me add coins. NOW CLOSED .. NO GREAT LOSS

  • Sam Ruben

Very expensive, after 14 dollars and working as fast as I could, I still didn't have enough time to clean my truck properly. Left with smeared dirt all over it. And yes I know how to wash a vehicle. Only 2 stars for being open 24 hours.

  • Jason Bechervaise

There was no soap in the pre-rinse setting, and I wasted most of the time trying to try different settings to get soap without luck (except for the brush, which cant't reach most parts on a motorbike). Waste of cash; do not recommend.

  • Peter de Wit

Broken equipment not apparent until after payment. No contact information displayed anywhere at the carwash or online at this listing. No choice but to initiate charge back.

  • Kia A

Paid 4 dollars with credit card and no soap or water came out of the hose. There’s no phone number to call and get my money back. It’s was first bay by coin machine.

  • Frenchies Deli

$3 for 3minutes: all the functions work well and there's an indoor change machine. Perfect. Only issue right now is vaccuum is off limits because of Covid-19.

  • Aref El-Ghotmi

It's an ok place to rinse off salt and mud off your car. Good luck finding the place open even during his operation hours and when it's warm enough outside

  • Kirk Gidley

The shampoo/vacuum does not work, no sign telling you this and there are no employees to help plus garbage overflowing everywhere, never coming here again.

  • GERALD BRUNET

After inserting coins the unit would not allow any selection except rinse. Timer was not functioning either. Last bay on right as you face the building

  • Amy LeRoy

It wasn't busy and I was in and out quickly. They were sanitizing the stalls between users. I like how well they are set up and had a good experience.

  • Austin chatten

Worst self serve carwash I've ever been too. The soap is so diluted it won't clean simple road dust off vechile. Also a rip off at $5 for 3 minutes.

  • Alain Tremblay

This car wash has updated their payment machines to accept credit cards. Makes it so much easier to wash your car when you don'have money or coins.

  • Lanre O.

An Okay self Car Wash, the only thing lacking is they never use enough amount of soap for their wash compared to similar self car wash in Ottawa.

  • John Hamilton

Way too expensive for the time you get. Dry off blower is useless. All modes of soap are watered down completely. Don’t waste your time here.

  • G Foster

The soap is way too diluted and mild. It barely removes dirt and salt on my car compared to the other I usually go to on Ogilvie road.

  • Жека Дембский

Horrible quality products and no pressure in the water system stay away or wash your car with a Carcher at home or friends place

  • LCC uOttawa

Why are they closing at 7 meanwhile they are saying they closing at 8 . So unprofessional and so expensive for nothing.

  • Joanne Langley

Great self wash place in the heart of Orleans. You don't even need coins as you can use your credit card and just tap!

  • Carole Morris

Last coin alert doesn't light up this place sucks.. high pressure soap barely gives an soap . NOW 5 dollars to start

  • wangbohai Wu

I think this place is alright, I spent $3 to clean my wheels and the high pressure rinse mode does the job.

  • Martica

No soap in one stall, only 2 stalls opened and a very rude old man with no manners screaming at customers.

  • Diane Maciver

Good place to wash your car but if you lose your change no one to give it back to you never staff on hand

  • Tech Studio

I just paid 5 bucks from my credit card and the hose broken canot use it. Waste or time and money.

  • SAM 77

  • K Dar

Good $5 do it yourself car wash. Adequate water pressure and soap. Will definitely go again.

  • Patrick Coyne

Worst wand wash I've used so far. Soap is so diluted. Can't get grime off the car.

  • Guy Breton
