Hoffman Car Wash in other cities:
Love this place best car wash around and the vacuums are free
Chaos! 3 lanes merge into one with no discrimination, no guidance, no courtesy. Absolutely no way to know what vehicle paid for what service or what lane they were in. Cleaning strips never hit the back of my vehicle leaving it noticeably dirty.
After multiple tries, I could not find a vacuum that was working and was surprised when an employee found me a bay with two working hoses and stood in the spot until I was able to move my car over to it.
Car washed really good, my new second hand really clean and shiny ..pretty happy and of course I will always come back for car wash
Horrible job on the car wash. Paid for ultimate car wash with undercarriage spray. When we got home and looked at our brand new vehicle the job Hoffmans car wash in Amsterdam did was horrendous. Would not recommend using this car wash to anyone. Rip off!!
Theres not many places in Amsterdam to vacuum and/or wash your car. If Im not mistaken I believe there is only two. Hoffman and Ricks Robo carwash. Both of them are good depending on what kind of day your having.What makes Hoffman car wash possibly better is the fact that you can vacuum your car for free and there is more than enough vacuums available even on busy days. The actual wash your car gets at Hoffman might be better than the Robo wash. The cons of Hoffmans would be there not open 24 hours (both the carwash and vacuums close at 8) and there is only one car wash building, so you may have to wait in line if its a busy day (the line does move pretty quick though). At Ricks Robo wash theres several carwash buildings and there open 24 hrs. The cons of Ricks would be they dont have Free vacuums and there is not as many vacums available to use, but again if you want to vacum your car past 8PM or early in the AM Ricks is open while Hoffmans is closed, but unlike the free vacuums at Hoffmans you will pay to vacuum at Ricks.
I just started working at this location today, and I have a whole new appreciation for the employees at Hoffmans! The work environment is very friendly and fun while also being professional and on top of everything. Management is wonderful and very caring about customers and keeping the business the best it can be. Happy to have joined the team!
Nice the vacuums are free, but lack of 24hour service, and it be usually crowded makes for a poor experience. They are a bit expensive, and not a full service like other Hoffman carwashes.
It was discovered and agreed with Hoffmans that the trim was torn off my car by the carwash at Amsterdam location. Having to repeatedly go there in person and inquire as to the status of new part, nobody has called me once. All I here is, well take care of it, not the case. Poor business practice.
Very convenient to vacuum out car before wash but lately vacuums have been not working properly or hose are broke area not very clean. Hopefully when weather gets better it all will work better.
Unfortunately I wont be getting my car washed here anymore. My boyfriend bought a new mustang and their car wash broke part of his car. Yes accidents happen but when he went to talk to them, one staff member said he saw it on the video footage and it happened there. He went about getting this problem fixed but then when the car wash had him return, the man who has the final say says it didnt happen, must have already been broken, and wont hand over the footage. Just be careful and maybe use touchless car washes so this doesnt happen to you.
A little bit of a holdup at the automated machines, because 1 of them wasnt working properly. The gentleman that pre-rinsed my Jeep, didnt do a very good job, as he only slightly sprayed one side, and then moved on to the car behind me. The gentleman guiding me onto the automated track, honestly didnt seem to be paying much attention, and the look on his face, was NOT a smile. Once I got thru the whole routine, and pulled over into a nearby parking area, I got out to look my Jeep over, and saw that it wasnt as clean as it should have been, after going thru an automated car wash. I wont be paying $12.00 for a barely basic, car wash, there again. My husband can do a FAR better job in our driveway, with a sponge, bucket, and the hose.
New car wash located in Utica area. Friendly staff. Quick service and car looks great.
Fast service. Clean car. I only go with the subscriptions not single washs. Best value.
They have free vacuuming, thats the only good thing here. I went through their wash and it was terrible. It let all kinds of residue on water spots all over the car because they rush you through it too fast, the wash doesnt get the proper time to do its job. Seems like a fairly good way to scam people, give them free vacuum then make them pay for a lousy wash. I will never ever wash my car at this location again.
Signing up for unlimited washes is a great value especially in nasty winter weather with salty roads. Protect your car and save some cash.
I just use it for the free vaccum. The clips for the floor mats was broken on the right side towards the end soI had to lay them on my seats and vaccum the mats. The vaccum doesnt really reach the hard to get to places because its a little bulky compared to the vaccums at the one near the bowling alley, but they charge for the vaccums so free is free even if its not the best o guess.
Attended automatic wash is a bit pricey but membership packages are available. Uniquely features convenient array of absolutely FREE vacuum hoses with strong suction into a master tank; you can use one on either or both sides of your vehicle. Wash operates until 8PM; more convenient hours than other car washes in region.
I had a hard time figuring out how to find the wash I wanted and the attendant took time to come over and help me he was very kind and not condesendind(I totally appreciated that) you can now see the sparkles in the paint job. We are very happy.
Decent place, be careful exiting the car wash stall because other drivers are driving in to go to the entrance. The carwash is in a type of a plaza its visible from the main road. They have the complimentary vacuums there.
This is the best place to go! Free vacuuming and a lot of bays so you dont have to wait so long. The drive-through wash does a really good job at cleaning your vehicle. The attendance were very pleasant and helpful. Dont forget to give them a tip if they deserve it cuz most likely they will.
I went through the drive through car wash and their car wash scratched my car and they arent doing anything about it. From reading these reviews Im not even suprised. Wouldnt recommend to anybody that values how their car looks.
I love going through the carwash. Im such a little kid with it! I have to knock them one star, however, because of the newly updated payment system. Instead of pulling up to an employee and actually interacting with them, you now pull up to one of three machines and press a few buttons on the screen. I dont know, call me old fashioned but interacting with humans is so much better than interacting with a robot.The free vacuums here are great, too! Theres usually one or two nozzles that are broken, though, but thats more of a minor nuisance than anything - they are free after all. That just means the hose of the working nozzle goes a little further, oh my. (*sarcasm*)I once used the unlimited washes for a monthly charge and it was also great. My biggest complaint about that was how it appeared on my banking statement. At first, I could never remember what H08 was and it made me very confused. But I digress, as thats more of a corporate thing than it is store.
Appreciated being able to vacuum the car out for free. It had plenty of vacuums and spaces for people. And my car looked great after the car wash.
Im very disappointed w them my 2016 jeep was all scratched up from the Amsterdam wash. I had unlimited, washed once a week. I told them about it and got nothing. I cancelled my unlimited. I would give zero but cant . Sorry Hoffmans I wont be telling people good things about you.
Was really good for the first year but now they dont scrub my car with a brush in the middle of summer. If I wanted a no touch car wash I would go to a machine! Just sucks cause there are no good car washes around anymore and at first they were so good.
Went thru very fast didnt get the car clean all the way and still had soap on it. Im not sure what the issue was it was not busy at all actually i was the only one in the wash bay.
When the carwash opened two years ago I purchased the ultimate exterior (2 washes for $20.00) the employees washed the bumpers, windshield ,etc. manually. Two years later the price is $32.00, the employees do one swipe on each bumper and act like they could care less. I dont mind paying more but at least keep the service the same.
This car wash is quick in and out. Nice to have the free vacuums to use at the end. Not touch-less like most washes now. Gotta check over vehicle after you leave. Always messes up my mirrors.
Everything is now automatic/computerized screens to pick what wash you want (it was easier than anticipated to use). One major problem is there are 3 lanes to enter which then merge into 1 lane going into the car wash which proved to be a bit of a pain with impatient drivers & it wasnt nearly as busy as other times ive been there. I cannot imagine how it will be during the Summer season if it was like this in the Winter. The previous set-up was more efficient and provided a few extra jobs.
Gets your vehicle pretty clean. Only inside wheelwells were left a bit dirty. Doesnt damage paint. The price is a bit steep if your only going here and there. But if you bye the months worth it can be a much better deal.
Went here for their $20.00 car wash 06/10/19. Came through with many bugs still on front, dirty, ugly wheels, soap still all over it, still all wet with droplets all over so that I got out and wiped off by hand with paper napkins so I could see out of the rear view outside mirrors. This has to be the worst for the money car wash anywhere, and I have been using them over 15 states for over 50 years. No wonder they try to get you to save by purchasing multiple washes, nobody would ever come back again otherwise. No matter where else you go, it will be cheaper and a better job. Be sure to get out and check your car before driving away.
Pricing was a little steep for what I was expecting my first time compared to what I have seen back home. But the facility was really clean, and the vacuums are free. I can see making up the difference in wash price based off the free vacuums alone
Car came out wet, drier didnt work? I dont know, maybe the wash was too wet. Had to dry my car with my own socks because thr employees would not lend me theirs. Ugh.
Needed the full wash/wax. Next time I WILL get the 2/$34 deal. Looked great except the guys brushing the grill and back-end didnt quite meet in the middle on that back bumper/trunk. I was irritated to discover it when I got home & unloaded the trunk. Guess I better check before I drive off!
Free vacuums most other carwash charge to use great services..
I wouldnt recommend to anybody. Their drive through car wash ripped my broher bumper off on the driver side and their machines even said it malfunctioned and they wont replace it. They have it on camera also. Terrible business ran by terrible people
Such a great place. My car was egged one night and it dried all over. They scrubbed it and when it didnt come off in the wash they scrubbed it again and let me go through until it was clean. No charge! Great customer service.
Good prices and free vacuums. Have never driven my car away and wasnt satisfied. The 3 month package deal is well worth it btw....
This is the only Hoffmann car wash that is terrible most of the vacuums are broken staff seems to be miserable i have been to other ones that are great thinking about getting rid of my monthly pass
I received a gift card from a friend for this place. First trip thru I noticed after I got home that my car still had placed that were not cleaned. Went back again and my car still wasnt clean. It seams like they run you thru so fast it cant clean it right. Very dissatisfied with this place. It was very convenient for me here. I will either do it myself or go elsewhere.
For many years I would hand wash my car. Now, due to my current work schedule, I joined the unlimited plan at the Amsterdam location. A few days ago, my vehicle received a small ding from the equipment. Unfortunately the business is not liable for damage. The cost for repair will run around $100.D. AbbottJohnstown, NY
So much better than the car wash in Johnstown!! By far! The free vacuums are very generous. Always get a great car wash too.
Little expensive but if I need a quick high quality run through the car wash I go here.The employees do a good job.
Staff need to put in a little effort into there job...work harder on spraying off people 60k trucks..not worry so much about clearing the line as fast as possible
Been going here for over a yr with 2vech. Pay almost $80 my first vech was a 2016 hyundi sonata the brushes ripped my antenna fin off the car, took almost a month to get the replacement and hoffmens wanted me to travel to albany to have it put on, i told them you come to the place where it happened which was Amsterdam, next they told me they would have to bend my headliner down in 10° weather i said absoulety not, my headliner would have been in pieces. So i had to pay for it myself never recieved a sorry that it happened here.needless to say i was upset about there arragments to fix an issue, next today 7/23/2019 i take my truck through at end it was never dried nor completely dirt and bugs still covered my truck,needless to say i was upset i started wipping off my truck only to see the paint was coming off my bottom part of the box on both sides and scratches from the material brushes used to clean both sides of vech. I went back immediately to attendent to show him and i hope he tried to write up a report, this is so sad to try to keep a vech. Nice all winter and all yr long and you end up with more damage to keep your vech nice i guess i should wash them myself..not sure if they ever replace the so called brushes with all the dirt they accumlate with every wash...
The scratched the hood of my car (down to the metal) when the attended banged it with a spray wand last year. I pulled right back around and told them and they told me theres nothing they can do about it. My car wasnt even clean when it came out anyway. I wont go back...
Multiple bad experiences in the past month.. will never go back again and will be supporting local business who takes pride in their work!! Absolutely disgusted, brand new car 2 months old scratched to HELL.. blamed it on someone hitting me, then the other one must have been someones door.. how about the 3 antennas that got ripped off?!?! You cannot say the car wash did not scratch the hell out of my car when it will rip an antenna off!!! Then bought a gift card for $100, they doubled billed me and it took multiple emails and phone calls and nearly 3 weeks to get refunded! I am not the type to do reviews, but I am beside myself how a company like this handles business. RICKS ROBO will be getting all my families business from here on forward
$36.99 monthly carwash unlimited washI wash my car almost every day because of snow and all the salt on the road.If my car is really dirty and one wash is not enough I pass through again.... Free vacuum!!!
You have to drive real slow and close to new scanners for your pass to work, workers seem disinterested. No matter if youre a rim scrubber, do it with pride. Life is a marathon, not a Sprint!
Horrible last visit, rushed through, back of car still dirty. Six kids working. No one working! Will only go when its slow in the future and checking before I leave. Not up to Hoffmans standards as I know them
The monthly deal is the way to go you can get your car washed as many times a month or day you want and you don’t have to wait in line that $48.00 a month goes a long way
Decent place has free vacuumes claims to have unlimited car wash deal but unlimited car wash isn’t really unlimited
Best place to go and clean your car. And a bonus is free vacuuming with no limit on time. Kudos❤
I love that Hoffman’s has free vacuums but I think they are lacking on the wash dept.I was just there spent 21 dollars on a premium wash and it had a lot of dirt still on it then my wife went today and her whole back of her car didn’t even looked touched it had salt and dirt all over that back.......in my opinion they need to slow down the speed that the vehicles go through the wash to give the system more time to scrub the dirt off
Only thing I would like to see here is air guns by the vacuums for blowing water out of trim and dust off the dashboards.
Too expensive, they dont pre soak/rinse your car enough and the wash itself is too fast
Nice place to wash your car and it has free vacuum for your vehicles. And they have monthly deals on car washes.
Free vacuums work absolutely great if only my wheels didnt get scratched with the roller rails at this car wash
Compared to the new nice superior car wash Hoffman’s offers nothing like superior car wash and is not as professional
Im not sure if its the staff who have me drive in at the wrong angle or if the carwash is just rough, but every time I go something happens to my car. Ive had my mirror shoved in, my gas cover ripped off, and my license plate badly damaged. Will not be going back here.
Great place for ur car.... They have the best thing for a clean shiny car... All bugs gone.. Lol but I highly recommend this place
Fast, quick, and easy. Price seems high for the bigger pkg though. But with the lower price which included wash, undercoating and dry it was great
Enticed to go there due to the free vacuums of which more than 50% we either not working or barely working. Car wash was sufficient
The was was mediocre at best. Ive done better in my driveway. The wash blew off one of my magnets and the wheel cleaner tore paint of off my rims.
I love the fact the vacuums are free but please they are almost all broken end of the hoses or now suction maintenance here and there would be helpful
Free vacuums!! And they really do a good job of pre soaking your car before it goes thru the wash.
Usually great, but sometimes the vacuums have so suction and one must drive their vehicle around to find which ones work or not.
Too expensive for 2 drops of water
Its just your run of the mill car wash. After driving in the ADKs on the weekend car was covered with dirt and road salt. Nothing fancy but worked as expected and prices were reasonable.
Normally I have no problems, but today when I refilled my card, it used both of the washes I had just loaded.
Not going there anymore my car is never clean. Paid for the better wash this time and still left with dirt on the car.
No matter how many times they wash your car it is still dirty. Soap left on your car and dripping off right after you come out of the wash.
Great carwash. No other in the area that comes close to the wash quality.
Its a car wash.
The best car wash anywhere. People always ask if I detailed my vehicle after an ultimate wash....
Love the free vacuums
Went through the first time dirt left all over inside wheels well go through a second time ask them to spray it out front and back didnt touch it left soap all over the tailgate of truck and wheels and no dirt removal ridiculous and 20.00 to boot
People were hand-drying their own cars when they come out as I did too
Sometimes they brush the back of my vehicle, sometimes they dont. They still charge the same however. Mediocre car wash at best.
Wish they would get wheel wells better other than that its a decent wash
Free vacuum works great, quick service at car wash with excellent cleaning!
Quick and easy place to wash/dry your car, the free vacuums are a plus and you can also dispose of your garbage!
Definitely not worth the money for the car wash they do a terrible job and their employees are extremely rude youre better off going down the street to the mobile station paying $10 to go through their car wash
Excellent wash just wish the dryer dried better. I will always be a returning customer!!
Does and okay wash job but for an automatic Ive seen alot better.
The belt stopped and I was stuck on the tracks for 30 min worh no maintenance available o. Shift terrible experience
Nothing like a clean car, great vacuums
Awesome car wash newest facility in the area vacumes are always working properly
Free vacuums I have no complaints.Great place
The car cash is pricey and the vacuums dont work very well.
Comparable to other car washers. Close to my home. Average was, side car not cleaned completely.
Favorite car wash, and they have free vacuums, so its a one stop shop for cleaning your car.
Save your money. Got the $17 wash and my car came out almost as dirty before the wash.
Good service. Free vacuums, affordable car wash with sales and discounts.
Quick in and out. Does a great job on your car. FREE vacuuming
Every time I go there I have to do touch ups on my trucks interior dash,door jams, console, ext, ext,or have to go through the washing process again
Dont expect your wheels to be clean after your wash
My car and I both love Hoffmans! If I lived closer, I would def have a monthly membership!
Vaccum running after hours is a noise pollution issue often louder than traffic on route 30 in Amsterdam NY. I apologize NOT Hoffman but PCT on Wallins Corner Road.
They gone up with prices plus they Scratch my car last year this is my new car and I took a chance and that I know of no Scratches but I dont Recommend them too much
Great car wash, In and out quick free vaccums
Luv This Place, So Convenient So On Target, Plus Free Vacuum 💯💯💯
Asked for package #2 and when handed my debit card he handed me a gift card too. I tried asking why and he wouldnt answer me. The next day I see I was charged $22 not the $13 I asked for.
Great place to quickly and effectively clean up your car inside and out.
They need better lane control. People dont have the common sense to go in turn.
Great place! To wash and detail your car!
Nice clean car and the people are friendly
Its okay but they dont dry the car well
Super cool stuff 😎 👌 thank you 😊
I like the monthly wash club but they never get my back license plate clean! 😵
Unlimited car washes for 30 bucks. For real theres no competition.
Its a car wash! Nothing bad about that.
Reasonable prices and free vacuum
Courteous and prompt service. Very satisfied with end results of car wash.
Great fast service...free vacuuming.
My car was still dirty when I got done
Premium price for a drive thru carwash, vacuums available.
Car came out awesome and free vacuuming
Convenient you get whole car done inside and out
How do you beat free vacuuming for your vehicle any day of the week?
Great place great employees...wish vacuum had a wider tip
Just let machines wash your cars on nice day
Great car wash, free vacuum.

2022-05-30Do you enjoy a dirty car? Do you want a terrible car washing experience?!?! Look no further! Hoffmans car wash in Amsterdam is guaranteed to waste your time and money. This is what the $25 carwash gets you. I could have lit the $25 on fire and had a better experience watching my money burn than just throwing at a business who just makes my car look wet. I dont live here, Im here visiting family, so bringing it back is not an option.
Review №2
2022-08-03Nice car wash with all new equipment. Self-serve vacuums are free to use. The driveway in and out is a bit confusing and could use some painted lines on the pavement, IMO.
Review №3
2022-03-01We absolutely love this car wash just wish they would make it at least two bays for washing because its so busy and not always convenient if you are in a time crunch! and as a tip keep an eye on the screen when you drive through sometimes they mess up and select the wrong car for a wash leaving you with a different wash than you paid for!

2022-08-06Great job washing my car. Free vacuuming. Is a joke. Hardly sucked at all. Had to go home and vacuum myself
Review №5
2022-08-18Vacuums are great, all is cleaned. Many choices for the car wash and the price is reasonable. Good job.
Review №6
2022-08-14It was overall a good experience the three lines leading into one door was a bit frustrating unsure of how the can determine who paid for what.. but my car is clean and the vacuums work well !
Review №7
2022-06-10Only thing is the parking lot is shared by 2 other businesses and its like the autoloader crazy drivers. When you come out of the automatic wash its in the line of cars driving in and out. Stupid setup.
Review №8
2022-08-06Love it,the vacuums are wonderful,cant wait for the one to open in gloversville across from walmart
Review №9
2022-03-28Vacuums are free. Courtesy is expected and there are on site trash cans for reasonable amounts of litter within a vehicle being cleaned.
