Reviews of Bee Clean Express Car Wash (Car Wash)

Jacob Gallaugher

I almost never give bad reviews, but I guess this warrants one. I went through Bee Clean Car Wash on Saturday before they closed. Took my car home and parked it for the night. Noticed Sunday when I went for brunch scratches and swirls all down the one side of the car. So I called. No answer. Okay, let's try their websites message feature. No reply. No one ever answers the phone, and apparently ignoring problems is their solution to damaging my car that is less than 30 days old. Lesson learned, Bee Clean Car Wash will damage your car and do their best to avoid you afterwards. If you're reading this because you had a similar situation, then just know Lakewood Small Claims Court has sided with the plaintiff (you) in the vast majority of cases when you showed you with evidence. A few times the owner couldn't even be bothered to show up to defend himself.

Louisa Borowick

Love this spot. I've shown up with my car so grimy that they took a picture!

Meghann McKay

The staff is friendly & diligent. I forgot to take my bumper magnets off prior to the wash & lost one. The employees shut down operations to search for it!

Shannon Faye Osborne

Ask for Joe! He's the best worker

Anthony Cenderelli

Awesome price

Sandra Love

$15 car wash by machine:( free vacuums are ducktaped so poor suction, I will be looking elsewhere.

Christopher Slowey

Great prices but definitely misses some spots on the cheapest wash.

Eric Bowser

Quick service and a good wash for only $5. They have just replaced the machinery within the past couple years too. I've had a monthly "all you can wash" package with them for years!

heather prior

Paid the extra 5 for the extra special car wash and there was nothing special about it. If you go, i would just do the 5 dollar one but dont expect your car to look great, just better then before.

Lori P

Free vacuum service. How beeautiful is that?!

Amy Sharo

Great local business!! Did a fantastic job, and were very easy to deal with.

Kevin Klik

Great wash! my car is never filthy and I make sure to leave the employees a nice tip

Cory Roberts

Reviewers are right. Streaking all down the back if you have a hatchback. Not to mention the car was barely scrubbed, just some surface dirt removed. I'll keep going to the car wash on East end of Madison.

Kevin H

You can't get a better car wash for $5. The free vacuums are a nice bonus. Would be 5 stars if they had better hours.

Asmint Cruz

Went to this place since it costs about 10 bucks to do your own cleaning. Only one difference.....attention to detail. I felt like I was a piece of meat served raw! $16 and they left the window dirty with a plaster residue that my car ran into on the highway. Last time I go through a "take-out" car wash....I'll stick to the manual wash; it not only costs less, I get a thorough job done.

Joe B

Got the job done.

Danielle Solomon

Fast and friendly. I like that the interior of my car smells like shampoo for hours afterwards. The vacuum is free to customers.

Scott Finney

Vacuums are broke all the time here and the ash itself is subpar. Go somewhere else

kevin mcintyre

They do a fine job. Of coarse some people like to sue people to make themselves feel important so I ignored that ranting post.

Rich

We just went here and it was the quickest wash with so many options. They even yelled that we got the top package and then we just sit in the car while the carwash takes place. Very good experience I highly recommend.

Mimi Almarsund

Absolutely love getting my car washed here. Every other time or so I get the more expensive option $10 but if your car isn't super dirty the $5 wash is fine! I love that they always have attendants here so they don't run out of things like soap - unlike the laser washes that so many times are out of soap and there's no one to talk to. Also love the self serve vacuum that is included in the wash.

Ryan Anderson

Always long line. Several spots on my car were missed by the machine.

Therese Kimbrell

Good service, good and fast.

Patricia Abraham

Best deal on car wash in town!

Richard Sumlin

Car was still pretty dirty after coming out of wash, staff was nice and handled rush efficiently.

Russell Pierce

$5 carwash? I'd give it 6 stars if I could

Ernie Adam

That's gonna be a no for me, dog.

moma flowers

I went there with three different car and all 3 were not clean .....and there is not always time to go back through the line at that time ...then after that day. It's hard to give recall info. To them to make it RIGHT.......

Colleen Silea

$5 wash and free vacuum! Staff is friendly. Hours are accommodating and open Sundays.

Anthony B.

Nice car wash for only $5

Andrew Wilms

I went in for a car wash yesterday. I got stuck on the belt, (my own stupidity for putting my car in Park in stead of Neutral) and thought I broke it. A very fine gentleman by the name of Vinny instructed me to put the car in neutral instead of park. Wish I would of read the sign prior. I went through the wash and my car was squeaky clean! If only it hadn't of rained later that day, my car would of remained as clean as it had been after I left the wash!

Earl Melvin

Nice

Tracey Von Czoernig

Nice automated car wash

Steve Tyler

If you have a hatchback, the back of your car will not get rinsed off. In the three minutes it took me to get home, the entire back of my car was covered in huge bold streaks of dried soap. I had to redo the back by hand, which is fun in the snow.

Al Franko

Good service, quick and has free vacuums with a car wash purchase.

Jess Simms

This one's not that great. My car was clean but all of the vacuums were broken

john breckenridge

I had the best experience,customer service awesome!!!!!......free vac, who can say anything about that, used them for 3 cars resale value top blue book, so go there,they have monthly pass too.....

Kathleen Thompson

I love this convenient drive thru. Five bucks for a basic wash (higher prices for additional service) and free car vacuums available. Can get crowded on sunny winter days.

Rebecca Murawski

Decent car wash. Doesn't always get the back of my SUV and always tries to tear off my license plate, but I keep going back.

Lucinda Garmus

This is an awesome place. I can't imagine what the whiners are going on about. For five bucks, you can get your car clean, and can use the vacuums for free. Maybe not the fanciest place, but for the price, it can't be beat.

Cailyn H.

Quick, well-priced, and did a good job getting the grime off.

Jennifer Lizanich

Great local car wash. Friendly staff, great job on detailing.

J. Victor Ryckman

Always good to get the dirt off

Rebecca Clark

Don't sign up for the monthly car wash plan. I had lots of trouble with repeat charges and charging me for the more expensive plan when I requested the cheaper. I was not credited when I called to correct, eventhough not my error.

MyShirt House

They just installed new equipment. First time going through with the new equipment my rear wiper arm was torn off. Not only do they claim no responsibility they're barely apologetic! They claim my car is old and the wiper blade was defective because of age! I WAS a regular user of this car wash because of the price but it cost me $35 and a day of my time to fix my car. It's just not worth the cost of this service to risk more damage to my car.

Steven Zupon

Fix or replace the dang vacuums already. This place really sucks, it's just the only options. None of the vacuums actually have any suction.

Brad Scotten

Great service. Excellent price $5 for a good cat wash.

Ananth tacob

A decent wash for $5. Workers are always efficient and move the vehicles through very quickly. The vacuums are just OK but are complimentary.

This is one of those, if i could give negative stars I would. So the confirmation is correct, rated WORST carwash in Lakewood! Not just by me, but by City of Lakewood Officials as well. I had small claims court on 3/28/2016 @ 1500 Hours. I was called by Magistrate Dowling and noted that Bee Clean, nor Kody Kocias from Bee Clean was present. This is unusual for them not to show up, but this is a very, very reoccurring issue they're having with them and mentioned the city is looking into action. I explained my case, presented evidence, briefs and professional opinion letters. Come to find out, they did not show up because I was so thorough, had a law school background that they knew it was a losing battle. In Magistrate Dowling's ruling in concludes "Defendant (Bee Clean/Kurt Kocias) negligently caused damage to plaintiff's vehicle and breached the duty to preform the wash in a workmanlike manner." The Magistrate recommends a judgement for the plaintiff and against Bee Clean/Kody in the amount of $575.75, plus interest at the statutory rate per annum from the date of judgement, plus court costs. Under advice by the City of Lakewood, and myself...stay away from this two bit place. They damage vehicles and won't take responsibility. I also filed a lien against their property and next is doing bank attachments to their accounts.

I live right next door to Bee Clean Auto Wash and I also Drive for Uber and Lyft during the evening and during the day I am a Real Estate Agent so its pretty important for me to keep my car looking as good as possible because you only get one chance at making that first impression. I have been signed up for the $29 unlimited monthly washes for over a year and usually every morning Bee Clean comes before even my coffee.

Dominic Cleveland

Great place, great price.

Brandon Krapes

$5 wash + free vacuum!

Craig Curtis

Great price, good service, fast lines. Best wash in Lakewood

nourdean rabah

Tbh I only go there for the free vacuumed other wise the 5 dollar wash ain’t worth it for real car still comes out dirty

Adam Metzner

Only car wash I go to.

Michael DiZonno

Worst experience I’ve ever had in my life at a car wash. Got my car wash and the car was still soaking wet. I tried to ask for a towel or something and they tried to charge me for it. After I asked for the manager she threw the towel at me and walked inside. Then proceeded to continuously walk by my car when I was drying it. Never will I use a Bee Clean again.

Rita White

Love it

Ryan Ponikvar

Pretty good deal - $15/month for unlimited washes.

Dan Wagner

Right around $4 for a car wash that lasts about 3 minutes works for me. It actually does a pretty solid job. They have vacuum stands that cost a bit more than normal, but for a car wash there's no better deal in the Lakewood area.

Christine Whitman

Can't beat a 5 buck car wash. All new car scrubbers too!

Kaliope C

Fast car service good price thumb up

Jeff Geffert

Definitely one of the better automatic car washes in the area. I like how you can just put your car in neutral and everything is done for you including the drying. No need to try and time it correctly to get your entire car dry. They also have free vacuums.

DM Johnson

Waited in line for 10 min for them to close the door at 6:00 pm right when it was my time to get my car washed. Not even a sorry we are closed. on the dot with about 10 people behind me. Never going heat again I’ll pay the extra $2 to know I’m gonna get my car washed.

Joseph Nary

Love the staff! Always friendly. Enjoy the monthly fee for once a day wash also!

Jack Robinson

Simply called and asked who I could speak to about supporting the local high school programs (didn't even say what it was yet), wasn't expecting them to scoff and hang up ... saying no thanks would've sufficed. Going elsewhere from now on.

Shawn Ridenour

Great place. Free vacuums

Pam Clark

Still a great $5 special

Mike McMahon

People are nice. Great value. A Lakewood institution.

Michael Bruner

Great value. Not the greatest wash but hard to complain for 5 bucks.

Stefan Nikolic

Good and fast

Mark Tyree

Nice greeting, like the undercarriage spay.

Brian Whitford

They always do a great job.

Steve Bozsa

I wish they would stay open later like till about 8 or 9 pm

Pman hmy

That's a kick ass car wash!!

ermir xhaferi

They scratch every car every time they wash my windows are terrible now

Andrew Ruda

Awesome wash and staff!

Bonnie Henke

Badly run. Owner is nasty. Create terrible congestion on Riverside and block apartment driveways.

Robert Carillio

Good for the money but use horrible scents that stick inside your vehicle.

Sharon Pelagalli

Best car wash. Free vacuums and car is really clean. Great prices and nice staff.

Stephanie Gunderman

5 bucks. cleaner car (lol) for 5 bucks. come get the salt off your car.

Chris Hall

Great employees, new equipment, fair prices and free vacuums...what's not to like? They need guys to wipe down your car after a wash, all. ,

Hannah Wise

The worst. Don't even sign up for their monthly unlimited car washes, they continually charge your without permission. I even went to the better business bureau about their dishonestly. Thankfully my credit card company thunderstorms us, but they would not even respond.

Mezan Ramazani

This is good you pay $5 to wash the car

Ron Q.

Great place!

Paul Jones

It's a no frills drive thru. $5 or $10 plus free vacuum

Eric Majkut

Would it kill you to join the 21st century and maybe post what services you offer and prices online somewhere?

George Keenan

Paid for the higher end wash on my 2 week old F-150 and the wash ripped the back off of my mirror. Was never told to push them in beforehand or take any precaution. There is a sign that is out of the way when you pull in that I was made aware of after the fact stating they're not liable for damage to my vehicle. Long haired male employee offered no help and told me that the mirror backing must have been broken because "he knows" the heavy spinning material smacking against it couldn't have done that.

saxon marly

Best car wash deals in cleveland if you only want the outside done. No detailing here, but only $35 a month for the best package which kewps my car in beautiful condition. Personally i dont take my beamer anywhere else
