St. Davids Launderette

Great when it works but the cash machine always steals coins - don't use it, use a card even though that's a pain for the dryer.The washing machines don't seem to get hot either, the clothes come out cold no matter what temp is set

Great Laundromat! No comparison with the reviews from five years ago. New machines, card payment and fair prices makes the shop perfect! And it was so close to our hotel.It's clean and friendly inside. Only the collecting cups for the washing powder are a bit dirty.

Cleaned my clothes well and relatively easy to use.Can use cash or card for the machines.Could do with slightly clearer instructions potentially.

I'm not exactly sure what happened to the people who left a bad review and maybe the situation improved. Everything worked for me after the first try. You have to press the Start" button on the card payment machine and then type the number of the machine you want to use (or to get soap). After selecting a program on the washing machines

Complete waste of time card machine doesn’t work so put in cash and the machine swallowed that up as well . No contact numbers so can’t get help with it or a refund . Might as well just thrown my washing in the river along with my fiver . Avoid this laundrette waste of time and money . Would have have given no stars but won’t let me ….

Clean, spacious washing machines and tumble dryers. Dry clothes in a timely manner and well priced. Clear and concise instructions. Paying by card saves trying to source coins. My new favourite laundrette.

A great place to stop to do laundry while traveling and stopping in Exeter. Everything worked well for us - we got things going and relaxed while we waited.

I have seen quite a few negative reviews on here however I have been using this laundrette for 2 months or so now and have had no issues at all. A wash is £5. The drier is 50p for 5 minutes.The washing machines do a good job, I bring my own detergent and colour catcher sheets but you can also get a cup of soap for 50p which smells nice and seems to be good quality.It is never too busy in the evenings, there is always at least two or three machines available.The card payment machine is a bit odd but once you get the hang of it, it's fine. The key is to press the small touch screen before entering your machine number, and then tap your card.The washing machines have various cycles although I always use number 4 which is 30 degrees to avoid shrinking things.The keyholder who locks up is friendly and I had a good chat with him. He told me that the last 2 minutes of the drier cycle is a 'cool down' phase so you are best adding more time to the drier whilst it is still going. 25 minutes on 'high' for me does a weeks worth of laundry (including towels) without anything coming out damp. Overall, a good laundrette which I spend just under £10 a week at.

Generally clean and tidy, except for Sundays when students seem to do their weekly wash. It is also busier then, otherwise relatively quiet.Open 7 days a week 7am-9pm, AN HOUR LATER than most other Launderettes in the city. Not as expensive as some others despite having relatively NEW washers and dryers.There are 4×£5 and 1×£7 washers together with 5 dryers for which 50p gets you 5 minutes of drying time.The PAY POINT takes both CASH & CONTACTLESS CARD/PHONE payments.Don't try to put too many 50p card payments for drying on in quick succession or your Debit or Credit Card may automatically get temporarily blocked by your bank for too many transactions in a short space of time.Ideally, do no more than TWO transactions then wait a minute or two before the next two payments and you shouldn't have any problems.Someone must have had this problem recently and got so frustrated that they punched and broke the Contactless Card Reader. Although it still worked as a card reader, the LCD screen was a smashed and blank display.The whole unit has since been replaced and is now 100% working.

No instructions; had to guess where to put the soap powder (ended up dividing it in two and half got used). Dryer only seemed to work in five-minute cycles. Credit card payment system is opaque and temperamental. Had to borrow 50p coin to get the soap. Ended up with my clothes half-washed and half-dried.
