Malone Laundromat

Malone Laundromat has built a strong name for itself in San Antonio, and once you do a load here it's easy to see why. The thing people bring up first is how clean the place is kept. Regulars describe it as neat, sanitized, and spacious, with plenty of washers and dryers so you're not standing around waiting for a machine to free up. Ask anyone who washes here and they'll tell you the machines actually work, which is more than you can say for some spots around town. There's real range in the equipment too.

Alongside the standard washers you'll find bigger machines that step up in capacity, which matters if you're hauling in comforters or several baskets at once. One person came in with four comforters and two baskets of clothes and had room to spare, then settled in to read a few pages of a book while everything ran. The AC gets a lot of love in the Texas heat, keeping the place comfortable on a hot summer day. Lori is the attendant folks mention by name, and the word around San Antonio is that she gives newcomers a warm welcome and does excellent work on the wash-and-fold side. If you'd rather drop off than do it yourself, that drop-off service is part of what keeps people coming back.

There's a genuine sense of honesty about the place too. One person who accidentally left shirts behind came back to find them turned in and put away, and was grateful someone did the right thing. A couple of practical notes. There's no soap vending on site, so bring your own or grab some from the gas station next door. Folks are a little split on the machine payment setup and a couple have had headaches with the card system, so keep an eye on your balance.

Overall though, it earns its reputation as one of the better-kept laundromats in San Antonio, known for fair value and a tidy, welcoming space. It opens early and runs late every day, so you've got a wide window to get your washing done.
