Not overly impressed. Fairly fast but little attention to detail, still obvious dirt on side mirror cover and wheels. Also, please don’t use blue drying towels which are going to leave blue fluff all over my car and then make no attempt to remove. Had to go home and touch up the wash and wipe off the blue fluff myself.

I LOVE CAR WASHES that don’t use high powered jets only to clean your car. Those car washes don’t actually clean your car much because it only sprays away the first layer of dirt and the deep dirt stays. It’s great to know there is a gas station with this kind of car wash near by. I wish the car wash had the RAINX spray but this will do. The attendant yelled at me because i didn’t know you had to actually answer the question about whether or not you had a safeway card in order to complete your transaction… he said «HEY! Finish your transaction!» and i was like… ok… :(but…the car wash made that unpleasant interaction go away.
Would recommend that when they start spraying the soapy stuff. that you turn on your air fan because it smells AWESOME :)

The car washer blower is very bad… bad. After the car wash which is good, the blower don’t blow any water off the car, and i paid $ 9.00 for it.
The Chevron gas station with car wash at the corner of Fremont blvd and Thornton avenue did much better job for only $ 7.00 and up.
Just one thing never go back to this Shell car wash again

I usually have my car washed at another car wash, but they were closed and this one was open later. I waited for quite a while with just two customers ahead of me. I could go into detail but bottom line is, I will not we a repeat customer. Areas of the car were still dirty, they left many areas wet (which I asked them to go back a dry, but still did not). They used old towels that left major lint fibers all over all of my windows (had to clean them when I got home). I will not be back.

I am pissed about the exterior car wash. The entire car is still covered in dirt! I waited in line for 20 minutes and the automatic car wash got about 10% of the dirt. I pulled into my driveway and the truck looks exactly the same as before the car wash. The full service does a pretty good job but I would never go back for an exterior only wash.

Not a good place for a full-​service clean. They only have two attendants at a time. A full-​service clean estimate takes «3 hours» because their attendants will stop working on your car to work on the regular car wash customers. They expect you to waste your time waiting instead of staffing the car wash area appropriately.
If you can’t provide proper full-​service car cleaning — don’t advertise that you do. Second, the place is staffed with people who are not motivated to work and earn money.

Like a bonehead sometimes I’m in such a rush I drop money and don’t realize it. Dropped off my vehicle here and came back 40.00 richer. The guys that clean your vehicle could have easily pocketed it and I would have been non the wiser. I can’t say enough about someone with integrity. It’s also the best carwash in the county. Thank you for your honesty and hard work.

This is place is not only really close to my house but also literally on the way to and from the freeway I take to work, or really, anywhere that isn’t Newark, it really is super convenient to get my car washed here.
For $ 15 plus tip, the pleasant and polite gentlemen by the machine do a pretty good job in the interior, and they work quickly. I get the inside service done every two weeks, and I know that every time I come through, my car will be nicely shiny when I drive away.

I live in downtown Hayward and drive all the way here just to get my car wash! The guys there always do a job well done! Much rather spend my $ 15 here than a poorly done job at 76 down the street for over 20 bucks.

Don’t go for the car wash unless you’re going to pay for the hand-​wash. They’ve screwed the basic drive-​through wash all up now. You leave with soap still all over the car.

I tried this car wash after reading the good reviews. Bought the deluxe wash. It basically sprayed water and stopped working in the middle. I exited my car and the attendee asked what happened. I told him he was nice enough to go inside and let the cashier know & told me to retry. He explained that this machine is new but stops from time to time wtf!!! I wasted 45 minutes here. Definitely not worth the time.

They recently upgraded the car wash to full service and do a decent job. Also I noticed the canopy lights where just upgraded to LED. The station is very well lit at night and super bright. I will go back.

Great experience. Automatic wash machine did a very good job of cleaning as it is brand new installation (compared to other crappy washers that makes it dirtier than before).
Once completed, hand wiping, vacuuming and interiot cleaning and tire shine was done nicely by couple of assistant.

This Shell is in the Raley’s Shopping Center, here in Newark. It has competition right across the street with Chevron right there.
The prices here, are pretty much the same as the Chevron. They seem to keep their prices the same so it’s usually basically whichever brand you decide to go with. Chevron or Shell, basically.
I use to see this Shell put up Christmas lights up on the Convenience Store but haven’t seen that these Christmas’s lately.
Also has an Convenience Store, Car Wash, and Restrooms.
Overall, it get’s the job done.

Since Chevron across the street added their car wash, Jarvis Shell needed to up the ante by converting it’s car wash into a full service one. This is the most radical change here since the former Lido Shell was renamed Jarvis Shell, and a convenience store put in place of the service garage.
The price of gas here is relatively high, but they keep the station spotless, and it’s a comfortable place to patronize.

They recently added a full service car wash. Car wash, detailing, ect. for $ 13. Great deal and great service. Will definitely go back.

As gas stations go I like that the attendant in the store is always polite says hi and thank you unlike others. The station itself is big with many islands to pump your gas and clean. Not the cheapest gas in the area but you can get your car washed before you leave.

This place is just good enough to fill up my gas tank. It’s pretty expensive, but sometimes I’m nervous to put cheap gas in my car. I’ll also get a quick car wash here, but the past few car washes smelled like rotten eggs. Hope that gets fixed soon.

I hate this carwash. First of all, it’s overpriced compared to other carwashes. Secondly, they do a crappy job. I’ve found soap still on the car after it has been supposedly rinsed. If they cant rinse off the soap, then how good of a job is the machine doing?
I prefer the Shell on Cedar and Thornton instead.

I always go to this gas station to fill up my car, buy a lottery ticket and get a car wash. I don’t really pay attention to the gas prices. Its terrible. Its out of convenience and its by the Dumbarton bridge. I always have those «Oh shit!, I need gas» moments.
On hot days the car wash machine will overheat and break down. If you should have it break down on you midway through your wash. Exit the car wash and get a refund from the attendant. They will usually give you another car was ticket that you can redeem in 7 days.
Their ice machine broke down. You can’t buy ice here. go across the street to the other gas station or Safeway for ice.
