Laundry Quality:
While the dryers are cheap (a quarter gets you 15 minutes) and rather wicked hot (watch your delicates!), this laundromat suffers from a bit of the stinky in its water. When they were ripping up downtown, did they perchance nick a pipe? I have it from a denizen that she can often smell a "sulfur-y, sewer-y" smell if it's damp under the 4th Ave bridge, and that same smell comes through in the water here.
In the end,
I probably won't wash there again, since even Downy Extra Stinky dryer sheets didn't eliminate the nose-wrinkle, even after the clothes cooled down from the nuclear-powered dryers.
Pluses:
- You could do a yoga class for 6 bucks while doing laundry. They're pretty good.
- Shot in the Dark Cafe is a seven minute walk away, and they're pretty damn good too.
- The stinky water thing.
- "Charming & scruffy" can be seen as "run-down and grimy" if you're not in the mood.
