This location had been shut down for many years, and we used to come here all the time, so we were thrilled to see the new owner reopen it.\n\nWe brought our 2016 Tesla Model Y in for a hand wash on Sunday afternoon, and the experience was amazing.\n​We forgot the new owner's name, but he is incredibly generous and genuinely cares about his customers.\n\nOur carwash guy, Albert, did an absolute phenomenal job—he cleaned our car thoroughly and left it looking very impressive. They also offer a \"buy 10 washes, get 1 free\" program, which is a fantastic bonus. This is officially going to be our go-to car wash from now on.\nThank you!"

The chemicals they used during the hand wash left a film on my car that they refused to fix and handed me my keys telling me to leave.
