Oasis Car Wash

Think of this as a two and a half star review, don't hate it, but don't like it that much either. What I do like about it is probably what works against it ever getting any more stars out of me. It's retro, in case you hadn't heard, and by retro I mean all of Oasis' washing equipment was made in the 50s. I love all the vintage gear, the spinning brushes made of exotic materials, high-pressure wind nozzles and all that sheet metal painted and polished to an impressive level, too bad the finished cars aren't as clean.

At roughly $20 per wash (for normal sized cars, nothing too big or too small here, just the Goldilocks) it's a bit pricey, especially if the car comes out less than clean. I watched as several cars made their way across the finished line, still dripping wet in many places and still dirty in others. Their product is not that dissimilar from having that weird kid down the block wash your car in your driveway for $20.

Oasis is also a small car wash, as these things go. The total length from hooking up the chain to your car to the cursory wipe across your hood at the end is less than 100 feet and not more than 10 minutes or so in travel time. This is a mini version of the old car washes of the 50s and 60s, the equipment is old technology and the staff is less than enthusiastic about making sure you're happy with your car's wash.

Take away here is if you're into vintage stuff, this should be your car wash, just don't let them wash your prized '57 Chevy Coupe, save that one for your professional detailer. For me, it's the vintage look and feel that I like, but it's that old technology and low-grade attention to detail by staff that makes me less than enthusiastic about having them wash my car.

I think this car wash is permanently closed now. The car wash at park royal may be the best alternative. As it's the only car wash in north shore. Can you believe it

Piss poor job!

The windows of our Toyota were streaked, the inside panels of the four doors still untouched after the job was complete. A rushed vacuum job, still plenty of crud and debris on the floors.

Once the car came through the wash, an idiot whipped the chain up and down several times to release it from the under-carriage of the car that pulled it through the wash.

$27.00 for a useless service.

Save your money and take your car to a do-it-yourself wash outfit. These clowns are useless!

I was sure to remove the spare change in my car before proceeding with wash but I left some polished stones in compartment between front seats. Sure enough, they were stolen by staff. Also the guy who took my receipt at end of wash stared at my chest instead of looking at me. The wash itself was not thorough and missed several spots. So a mediocre car wash by a bunch of smutty thieves. Do not recommend.

Workers stole stuff from under my seat and denied it. Found packages I. Trash and no one did anything. Only go there if you want stuff stolen both your money and your stuff

It may be family owned but, over the last few years the quality of the final clean has really gone down hill. Covid has not helped the situation.

My last clean resulted in the inside front window not being cleaned, 3 rd time in a row. The remnants of a sneeze last summer were still evident. Carpets not vacuumed, front dash not dusted. Door wells not vacuumed. It wasn't until a week later I noticed the side rear passenger window still has Schmutz on the outside.

I have one final coupon to use and then I'll be finding somewhere else. e

Please save your self from a very bad experience!!! It will leave you sad for a while until you wash your car again. ANYWHERE else but here. I have never had such a bad car wash job done to my car! It looks like they took bunch of dirty dust rags and spread it around your car. Dirty inside and outside and now my windshield inside is dirty, which was clean BEFORE I took the car into that very bad car wash.
Please don't ruin your day, go to any other car wash, but here! Now I need to wash my car again, after them washing my car.

Great little car wash....Most Yelper's are whinny ass people....

Set your expectations very low. strong suggest you take your vehicle elsewhere (Powell St hand wash very good). These guys set a new standard for missing the point.

Entirely average. Windows streaked. Pieces of cleaning cloth on the dash. Could have done better at automatic wash for half the price.
