Kapahulu Xpress Laundromat

Jan 2024

I’ve been using the extra large washers that can fit up to 6 small loads. They’re very efficient! A full load costs $9.25 for an under 30 minute wash. The clothes do come out clean, but don’t over stuff the machine. I loosely fill until it’s almost full and put two laundry pods in the machine. It then took 24 minutes on high to dry.

I folded my laundry and left, forgetting to take my iPad that I brought to keep up with my work as a pilot. The next day as I retraced my steps frantically looking for it, I returned to ask if it had been found. It had because the people working there, while keeping the place tidy found it, kept it locked up, a refused to accept any reward other than my expression of gratitude and “Mahalo” as they returned...read full review
