Laundromats in the city

Nothing is safe...laptops are stolen from everywhere. I won't even take my laptop to work anymore...I learned my lesson after the 2nd stolen laptop.

I rarely take my main Apple laptop anywhere. Laptops are ABSOLUTE thief magnets!! If I must take a laptop out I use my cheapy one which is a back-up junker with very little sensitive on it as I only use it for Intranet stuff and I'm extremely, EXTREMELY CAREFUL! I just do without computers in most public settings... though I may pop on my Ipod discretely if in a WIFI hot spot.

I used to use a place up on West Grand Blvd. and 14th but it rough and not the safest parking lot.

Indeed there is a big shortage of them in the city. Some are so grim you'd not want to pull up into the parking lot, no less go in. I use the University Laundry up on Livernois near U of D. They are clean and it's a safe friendly environment. I think they advertise on local tv from time to time.

Otherwise I really like Courtesy Cleaners on 9 mile in Ferndale which is a laundry mat and dry cleaner combo. Great place!

They have a bench out in front to sit. Very few vagrants. You can pick up your dry cleaning up to 9:00 PM. And they have 20lb super wash front loaders for only $2.00!
