Hi Karlee and Tim, My name is Stuart Kimura. On Wednesday morning, October 8, I was at the Manoa Laundromat and got my new laundromat card. When trying to register, it did not accept my cell phone number. I called you, Karlee, for assistance. You were very friendly and professional, and immediately corrected my issue. Thank you for your kind and prompt help! Stuart

Open 24°, very clean, reasonable rates. A little hard to find--it's located inside Manoa Marketplace and I was able to find it at night because it was one of the only places lit up but during the day I'm pretty sure I would have had a lot more trouble. The washers and dryers are brand new and the whole place is super clean. They use a card system to pay for washloads and there are two working card machines with good instructions. There's also a working change machine that's handy if you need to buy detergent or soda from either of the vending machines. A snack machine sits next to the one for soda but it was completely empty when I was there. Also of note was a large TV mounted high on one wall, and plenty of benches and folding tables. The only thing I wish had been there was a sink. Other than that this place is absolutely amazing. I will definitely be back. Update: I just wanted to make an additional note here about how safe I felt doing my laundry at Manoa Laundromat. I'm a woman who often does her laundry alone, in the middle of the night, both bc it is rarely busy at that time and bc laundry is sweaty work & it's marginally more enjoyable to do it when it's a little cooler out. So bc of the hours I choose to get my laundry done, I am familiar with the sensation of being by myself in sometimes creepy places at pretty sketch hours. And I am pretty well versed in paying attention to my surroundings and being aware of who or what may be near me at any time. When I say I felt safe at this laundromat I don't mean nothing bad would ever happen here. I don't mean I wasn't concerned about my safety. But with the very bright lighting, the wide open layout of the laundromat itself, and the shopping center security guard doing rounds periodically and checking in to make sure I knew he was in the area, there was a distinct decrease in the low-level anxiety I always carry as a female walking alone through the world. The anxiety that's usually cranked up at least 4 or 5 ext

Space was clean, and airy, the breeze just keeps the area cooler. The variety of washer sizes was super helpful and because its right in the heart of the marketplace with the restaurants nearby along with the playground within sight- you can bet I will be a frequent flyer here!

This place has, and will always be my primary laundromat. Since ownership has changed, the facilities and services have improved significantly. The new owners work nearly non stop keeping the place and equipment maintained. Under previous ownership, the place became dilapidated with several machines needing repairs. The current owners are doing an amazing job of keeping the place running properly. Mahalo to Karlee & Tim, I appreciate all that you have done to improve Mānoa Laundry

Love the new ownership….. always maintaining property well and ensuring that it’s clean and all the machines are properly working. Even the fact that she took the time to explain the new card system is a big plus for me! Highly recommend to all our local people in the area!

Great, safe, and clean place to do laundry, 24 hours a day. Lots of machines that do various load sizes so I was able to do my laundry way faster than expected. There are vending machines for laundry items and for drinks. They use a payment card system which is convenient. Customer service is responsive when you need something too.

After just a few months of new ownership, the place is back to being AWESOME again. All machines have been fixed and they upgraded the laundry card system (tap to pay and text message alerts when machine cycle ends). I will for sure keep coming here to do my weekly airbnb linen washing (only after midnight though when it's the least busiest so my $100 worth of laundry doesn't make others upset). I'm sure the new owners don't mind me bringing such large volumes of laundry on a weekly basis 😉 🤣🤙

Manoa Laundry — a true lifesaver! This laundromat is absolutely wonderful and truly saved me! 💙 The biggest advantage is that it’s open 24/7 — you literally rescued me. Having access at any hour is priceless, especially when you urgently need to do laundry late at night. Everything is very well organized: clean, spacious, and easy to use. The reloadable laundry card system is convenient, the machines work fast and efficiently, and the entire process is simple and stress-free. They also have a snack vending machine, which is a huge plus while you’re waiting — perfect for grabbing chips, sweets, or a drink during laundry time. The atmosphere is pleasant, and you can tell the place is well cared for. I highly recommend this laundromat to anyone who values comfort, reliability, and availability at any time. I will definitely be coming back! 🙌

What an awesome coinless laundromat... love that you can use the cards to operate the machines and that is open 24 hours. Nice people and great spot in Manoa.

I have been coming to this establishment for about a month and a half. Before I say any more, I have to confess that I havent been to a ton of laundromats. I found this particular one, along with a few others, though google (duh). I made a few stops to take a look inside and see the prices, what the vibe was, check prices, etc. When I came to Manoa Laundry the first time, I was perplexed by the payment system. I assumed youd just put money in the machines. I am also almost 50....enough said. So, the payment situation was a card that you loaded through an ATM like setup, then you use the card at each machine. The cards are reloadable and simple looking. The washers come in several different sizes. I think its 2, 3, 6 amd 10 loads? And the dryers have 2 sizes, i believe. The prices graduate with the sizes. I THINK they start at $4.50 and go to $6.50. The dryers are .50 for 8 minutes. Again, I dont have a good reference point for pricing, however it seemed to me that if you got a good wash and dry, it was fair (considering rent, power, water, maintenance, etc). I made it through my first visit feeling comfortable and knowing I would be doing my laundry here for the foreseeable future. It was clean, bright, the location is great with lots of parking in front. The space has a comfortable layout with seating at the entrance, snack machines, detergent machines, and lots of counter space for clothes folding. The machines seemed to work well and were pretty quick. The shopping center is adorable woth lots of fun little shops,shade, seating, and a CLEAN well stocked public restroom (with a code). There is a rear entrance with 2 loading spots, but all other parking is reserved and strictly enforced when the security is there. Incidentally, the lovely lady that does security is just a bonus to the experience. She is so fun and sassy! And stern so dont act dumb. So, I knew where I was going the following week when it was laundry day. I thought I had things figured out amd walke
