Suds America Laundromat

It's a pleasant place to do laundry. Code enough to the convenience store to pick up a drink or snack to eat while working. The drop off service is good, too.

My dryer broke. This place and their industrial dryer saved the day! Nice and clean. Family business. I was out in 30 minutes. Thank you!!

I have been faithfully coming to Suds America for almost 3 years, now. It is one of the cleanest and well maintained laundromats I've been to. This fact speaks very highly of the people who work there as there is a tremendous amount of traffic in and out of the facility.I usually come in to do my laundry during the evenings and I got a chance to know Bill while he worked there. He did such a fabulous job keeping things running smoothly, he was always kind, and he usually had a story to tell me.When Bill left to pursue his dreams, Brittany was hired on for the evenings.My very first impression of Brittany was that she was focused and a very hard worker. She did her job quickly and efficiently, and worked with a purpose that is quite frankly not evidenced in the work ethic of the employees of most of the other businesses I frequent. I can tell that for Brittany, this is more than just a job or a paycheck. She really cares about what she does and the people she comes into contact with.I got a chance to see Brittany in all of her glory one night when I drained my car battery while waiting for my clothes to dry. I went around asking, business to business, to see if anyone could help me jump my car battery and no one was able to help me until I asked Brittany. Without blinking her eyes, she said, "Yes", and went swiftly to work, pulling jumper cables from her trunk and expertly brought my lifeless battery back to life.She was so kind to me and never made me feel bad for draining my battery. She shared her own "dead battery story" with me which helped to make me feel better about my own experience. Instead of leaving the parking lot that night feeling ashamed for not better monitoring my battery, my heart felt full and like I'd gained a true friend.Since that night, I continue to see Brittany go above and beyond in all she does at Suds America. I purposefully make sure to do my laundry on the nights when I know she works as she always greets me warmly and with a smile.Brittany, thank you for the way that you show up in this world. I wish you got more recognition for all you bring to Suds America and the world around you.I notice. I see you. I appreciate you.Thank you for your kindness and compassion in a world that is not always kind or compassionate.Now give this woman a raise!

Spring cleaning in means switching everything winter in a home for spring. In my life that means washing all heavy bedding and clothing layers before packing them up to swap for lighter, brighter spring and summer delights. Unless I want to do several continuous loads, that means using huge laundromat washers Suds has two massive washers. One was apparently out of order. The coin receptor on the other jams so badly, it may as well have been labeled out of order as well. Even the attendant gives up on it and refunds my money with an apology and a suggestion to use the next largest washer drum. The machine was already fully loaded with items and detergent, if course, so this made for an amusing - and very messy - swap. Tons of powder soap end up on the floor in front of both original and smaller machine. The attendant had stated he'd return the amount he and I had gotten through jamming into the first machine as well as give me a single-size soap packet to make up for what I put into the mess. In returning with the cash and seeing my large containers of detergent, he notes this and says he guesses I don't need the soap after all. Heads up: Customer service isn't about whether the guest has enough to cover your mistakes as a business - it's about taking responsible for bumps in your operation and their consequences. I jokingly muse that I could drop a note in the suggestion box, and the attendant dryly responds - Steve would never fix it. Or upgrade to coinless operations to make life much easier for his guests. Well, that's comforting. It's okay, there are plenty of laundromats that not only would, they have long provided that service. Oh, and while waiting on my washer, I spotted another guest having to unload a dryer to move his items to the next one over - because the coin receptor on it was jamming as well. Nice. Irony that in leaving this spot, I drop in on a lovely, clean laundromat down the way that I'll definitely be visiting next time I have blankets to wash. So thanks for that!

I've been doing laundry here for the better part of a year. Loved the place... not any more... I thought opened at 7 ... I got there at 7:30 when the owner pulled in... & I was talking to a friend & Also my voc rehab connect in text. I pushed my laundry into a pile next to the drivers door on the ground... I was finishing up my power juice... & this is typical of me doing laundry - turtle ass - nobody could see my laundry pile as I was in the back corner ... the owner opens the side door.. & suddenly starts yelling at me "if your not doing laundry get out of here ... "Huh? I'm confused... he is yelling at me more...& mocking me... well... here is the problem... last week... I asked this bully if he'd rent me a part time space as he rents to a roach-y food truck & my flyer has been hanging on his bulletin board... he said no. Used insurance as an excuse... I did not engage or argue... I was finished my laundry & left until this morning... I maybe homeless but I'm cleaner than this pig... no pride in ownership... I could have provided service as well as rent $... look at his filthy parking lot... I'm not homeless to spite him... I exist & I am part of this community. Let's do the math $15-$50 bucks a week for a year is what I've spent as a customer - I'd never talk to or treat anyone the way I get talked to.

I can't really compare this laundromat with others, as I really just keep coming back here instead of trying others because I've been so satisfied with Suds. This place is clean, seems to always have well-maintained machines, and very large capacity washers and dryers. It also has a number of standard capacity washers, too.I always come here when I have a laundry crisis and need to get several loads done in addition to my bed spread, sheets, and pillows.My only gripe is the sheer number of coins (quarters) you have to manage. Granted, they have change machines to convert bills to quarters. But with large capacity machines costing $5.00/load, you're sitting there shoving 20 quarters into the machine which is just a nuisance.They should have some sort of electronic payment system. And, at the VERY least, the machines should accept DOLLAR COIN (which the entire United States should be using in place of bills, but that is a rant for a different time).

Where is the 5++ stars? Honestly I didn't expect much coming to a laundromat around three (more?) major colleges. Boy was I so surprised...They have a drop off service for laundry - $14 for a comforter. ($15.06 with tax) I think wash and dry is about $10 worth of quarters - there is an old saying 'Time is money' ... and I will be giving them my money to save time again the future!!Not gonna lie - my comforter was *nnnnnnasty* covered in dog hair and drool (poor puppy anxiety) - I needed to wash it ...and bit the bullet and dropped it off -- not only did they call and leave a nice message - they got 98% of it off! ('Loads' better than my impatience ass - pun intended) Highly recommend this place and will recommend the service to anyone that will listen. Thanks for doing a great job!!

So this was my go to place back in the day when I didn't own a washer and dryer. The place was clean, they had a TV going, located next to a convenience store and they had a video game and a pinball machine. It's still like that but Izzy's is now across the street. The only major change was that now to do a load is $5.75. Things sure have changed. Either way, there is always staff on sight and in the grand scheme of things, the place gets the job done.

YAY FOR CLEAN CLOTHES! This place offers different size washing machines from small, medium, large and extra large loads.The prices for wash are decent, about $3-10 per load depending on what size you want. And dryers are 25 cents for 5 minutes. Machines are super efficient and work well. The staff are nice and help you if you need it, but also let you have your privacy too. Ever since I moved back to St. Paul, this has been my go to place for laundry. Try this place out, you won't be disappointed! PS - just don't overstuff your wet clothes into the dryer like I did - or else you'll be embarrassed and make a scene. Happy washing!

My washer broke down so I had about 5 loads piled up and was desperate to find a clean laundromat. Suds America is the best laundromat I've ever been to! There's parking, it's clean, has a nice waiting area with video games and vending machines, there are entry of washers and dryers that all work well! I did 5 lids for about $10. I'm so happy I found this place!
