Ultra Wash Coin Laundry

Not bad. I think I’m satisfied. Just careful re exchanging paper money for «tokens» (which can only be used here at Ultra Wash Coin Laundry. They work same as quarters.

This place is great and everyone is so friendly! Maybe it’s because I’m back in MN and have forgotten how nice people are here, but it really blew me away. Total strangers were greeting me and asking how I was. Not only that, but the people who work here are super sweet too! I had half a dozen 13 gallon trash bags full of clothes and was slowly bringing them in. One of the employees held the door for me and then grabbed the other two bags I had left next to my car.
The price for washing and drying seems to be typical of most laundromats. There are tons of machines to chose from. They have top-​loading and front-​loading commercial washing machines. The smallest washer starts at $ 2.00. The most expensive machine is GIGANTIC and costs $ 17.50. I went with the second largest machine, which costs $ 9.50 for a regular wash and $ 11.50 if I want to do «Super Cycle.» I was able to fit about 4 of my large trash bags in each machine (only filling it half way) and then transferred those loads to the big dryers that cost $ 3.50 base fee and 25c for every 2 additional minutes. I find it most economical to start with the large dryer for 50 minutes and then finish anything that’s still damp in the stacked dryers for $ 1.00.
I have got to say that the best part about this whole place is that they have incredibly convenient hours. They are open from 6am to Midnight Monday through Saturday and are open from 5am to Midnight on Sunday. I’ve been lucky enough to come during the day when hardly anyone is there, so I get a ton of clothing washed in practically no time at all. Having a token machine on premise helps a great deal too. I don’t usually carry quarters (which the machines take), so being able to turn my money into tokens (which the machines also take) was incredibly helpful and made me feel a bit safer since there isn’t cash on hand.
