I went today to the laundromat to wash my cloth. I washed two loads of laundry in regular machines. There was not much because I have some clout to laundry because I travel. But 2 colors: light and dark. It is not cheap $2.25 a wash. I dry the cloth, when I start folding I check for underarms and other spots in a shirts. I other laundromat I had sinks and could precast the spots with soap or shout. The cloth was not washed at all. Underarms small like will be not washed at all. The socks was not better, did not have the nice clean smell. The washing time there is only 27 minutes. Normal machines at home the cycle is min 50 min. I told the lady there the machines ddid not wash my cloth at all. She said, o did you add a sop. What ironic , I am 56 yo, working in domestic jobs. I am expert on cleanings and cookings. Please. She said no one complain. Of course because not many people checking their laundry and of the quality of wash. Another thing the machines are very old. I do not recommend the laundromat at all, unless you want waist your time and ruin your cloth. Yes ruin because when not completely well wash and you put in dryer, you bake the dirt, the smell and so on. Then next time is even worse, it is very difficult to take that off.

Put $5 bill in change dispenser. Got $2.75 out. Sign says service counter opens at 8am, it is 8:15 and no one is here. Nice quiet clean place but getting ripped off and not having someone to talk to when it is advertised that I should is not cool. UPDATE At 830 the owner showed up and gave me the rest of my money. I know it's only $2.25 but in a city where a lot of business owners wouldn't have cared or made it right, Linda did me a solid. Actually after watching her work I can say I have not seen many business owners as kind and diligent as she is. Truly a model of how business owners should treat their customers. Thank you! I will not go anywhere else to do my laundry in the city!

There are elements that transcend every community wherever you go in the world! Laundry is one of those crucial transcending aspects and like anything it can be handled with or without love, care, integrity, etc. etc.. Sparkle is a jewl within this San Francisco maze glistening with cleanliness! You almost want to go out and live fully if only to create a pile of clothes that need washing to have an excuse to go feel the revitalizing vibe of the people that make Sparkle sparkle...

Almost dont want to say this, since the more people that know about a great thing, then the risk is that it becomes more popular, making your experience worse, but im ready for it! What im trying to say here, is this place is everything you can ask for in business that provides laundry services, in a laundromat. From the machines to the staff, great place all around, nothing but praise. A fixture in the community that provides everything you need as a customer, and more.

  • Sherry Yee

I just took David out to San Francisco to Sparkle, and he said they didn't have enough water for him to get the wood dust off of his pants...to do his laundry. He said they're , not clean. Then threatens me by saying that he's going to do something bad to me when I am sick, and give me junk food. He just britched at me, and he's dysfunctional because that is how he was raised.

Sparkle Laundry Services is not just a laundry service... It's a business brought to earth directly from the heavens, with true angels delivering cloud fresh linens to your doorstep. Forget washio, my friends, because Sparkle Laundry Services is straight up laundry of the gods.

  • Mindy Tiffany

Super friendly! Family owned and they recognize their regulars. When we just moved into town, they noticed we were new and made conversation with us. Super helpful and their machines are cleaned and maintained regularly. I'd definitely walk a few extra blocks to come here.

  • Kelly Lee

Amazing laundromat! Family owned so it is great to support small businesses. The owners are also amazing and always takes the time to get to know you and remembers you the next time you come in. Such a personal and friendly experience. 100% recommend!

  • Daria Bean

When it comes to the laundry shop, I am so meticulous. Only this place impressed me with their service. I appreciated the assistance that I received from here. My clothes were all cleaned and smell fresh. Great service and fabulously convenient!

  • Jechri D

Nice owners and nearby. There are a few machines that are error prone but it seems like things aren't left in disrepair for very long here. The coin machine is picky about $10 bills so bring 5's if ya can. No, it does not take 20's

  • Daniel Valenza

Great owners/staff - so friendly. Clean, good machines. Open 7am - 10pm daily. Change machine takes $1, 5$, $10 bills. See my photo for service counter hours (dry cleaning, change for $20, wash/fold, other help)

  • Ariel Ferree

Only cash and coin options. The coin machine doesn't even take card. Luckily, there's a convenience store about a 5 minute walk up the hill. Pretty clean place and not too busy during a week evening.

  • Jenny Lefferts

Linda is like family! I have been going there for years. My children all know her by name. LOVE LOVE LOVE this place and their customer service and workmanship is spectacular. xo

  • Caroline Moncure

Such a great laundromat! The owner is so friendly, the machines are well cared for, and the place is very clean. Lots of washers and dryers including 4 load washers. Great spot.

  • Charlie Liu

Family owned cleaners. Great people. They have always made sure that my clothes return in its best shape, or else they would send it back to the dry cleaners.

  • InGodWeTrust

Lady was quite rude. I would only recommend this place if the staff is out of sight, as you are likely to have an issue to some minute proportion otherwise.
