Merivale Coin Laundry

A small sized laundromat that also provide dry cleaning and alteration services. The owners are helpful and friendly enough. The machines are all rather small. The medium sized and the big one are overpriced but if you are in Ottawa you have to chose one of the 3 laundromats that are open as of 2021. Price list, per load, as of December 2021: Small washer: $2.50 Medium washer: $3.50 Larger washer only 2 available: $6.00 Big washer only 2 available: $14.00 Dryer: $0.25 for 5 minutes Big dryer only 2 available: $1.50 for 24 minutes. These dryers are available to you only if you use "Big" washer. I had to wash one comforter which was too big for my washer. I used the Large washer, but I could not use the Big dryer because, as per their policy, I did not pay for the "Big washer". Other dryers are all of the same size and I wasn't happy with the results. This place needs some cleaning. I was afraid that if I drop my comforter, I have to redo the wash. There is a small waiting area. For regular washing if you do not have washer/dryer or if yours is under repair, this place is great. For comforters, be prepared to spend $14 + $1.50 for each. They provide wash and fold services and I did see many bags washed, folded, and ready for pickup. They also provide alteration and repair services.

Pros- The machines function and are relatively clean. They provide quarters and sell the necessary products like detergent and dryer sheets. They offer services like pick up/delivery, dry cleaning and alterations. They have a TV usually on the sports channel. Cons- Sometimes this place gets really busy and then the small parking lot is full or there are no machines available. The building is somewhat in a state of disrepair. They close early last load is at 3:00.

I went in to help my daughter. Staff was super helpful. Can use debit to get coins for machines. Great place.

My machines at home are too small for my comforters so I came here. The machines are faster than mine which is great and the man running the show was really helpful and friendly. The machines are a great price too. Really cheap. I'll be back.

When called and asked for the price of using the machines I was told $1.25 but when I showed up the costs were almost triple that. The owner of the laundromat was rude to myself and my girlfriend and also to a couple others and polite to a select few. I do not recommend this place as they provide false pricing to lure you there and are just ignorant to some customers for absolutely no reason. -5/5 rating from me, the worst score I have ever given anywhere. Avoid this place!

It’s too bad. most of dryers are not working well and workers there they are not helpful with customers and hard to communicate with them

You could do worse, but if you have another option - take it. The machines are top loaders, and there are not a lot, so be careful. The place is dirty. The worse part is that you are stuck here with nothing to do. Next door are pizza shops 2, a bakery that has a woman's only entry in the front, and men only in the rear. Surplus furniture. And when I was there some dope smokers with facial tattoos. One woman, the other I am not sure. This place has a last wash at 3, which is best as it is not the sort of neighbourhood you want to be in too late, and I grew up near by. If it is not Wednesday, go to Maple Laundry. It is worth the drive.

Updated hours of service by business owner? Why would you update your hours a week ago and then not actually change them? I took three buses to get to your laundromat, which is the closest one to where I live and I get there after reading that you have changed your hours and... surprise ! You're still closed at 5. I will never come here again.

Owners are friendly however, it needs organizing as the place looks a mess.

Nice people, clean, good washing machines and fast dryers. Great place
