Staff were really nice, only giving 4 stars because it left little water marks all over when we paid £15 for an ultra HD wash! Was very expensive for what it actually was.

Shut but no closed signs-staff rude

Turned up, paid via qr code, waited patiently to be told they were shut.
I expressed my disappointment and explained a simple closed sign or cone blocking the lane to the wash would have been adequate to show this however I was met with ‘we don’t have a closed sign and we are shut’

Good value car wash

Good value car wash
Not the best as best as it missed bits, but that is too be expected with the limited automation and brushed etc.however, given the limited spec it did a decent job of getting the worst of it clean. Happy with the result.

Overall a little disappointing

In places, the car is still dirty (mostly the back). Water marks down the side near the fuel flap and wing mirror housing. I didnt find the employees all that enthusiastic about cleaning yet another car.

The finish has a good shine but that's the only compliment I can give. From a process point of view. I think it only needs 1 person at the start of the clean and maybe the 2nd person can have a microfiber handy at the end doing quality checks to ensure a total dry off/sparkling finish. Its never a bad idea to check your own work to ensure it meets the standard.

Other better and cheaper options locally.

Payment problems

The actual car wash was pretty good but I finished up paying twice! The QR payment system sent me a QR code to show the attendant but got lost off the screen. No email confirmation of payment so went through the whole process (including payment) again. Finally got car washed - confirmation emails arrived 10 minutes later. Not majorly happy!!

Clean wash but did I get what I paid for?

There was a bit of a wait but that's fine. what was irksome though was that the display boards did not show what program was selected so I don't know if I actually had a HD wash or if I was being ripped off with a cheaper one
