What Our Highway 31 Customers Say
See what customers are saying about our Highway 31 laundromat in Athens, Alabama.
“I recently discovered the Bubble Hut on the drive home. I was using a competitor on Hwy 72 and slowly but surely, All of the equipment at the other place was falling into disrepair. I've been here five times and every time it is super clean, All the equipment has worked and the price is definitely right. The restrooms are especially clean and that for me shows the level of care the business has for its customers. Thanks you guys, you definitely made a repeat customer out of me.”
“EXCELLENT facility for ALL your laundry needs! Very clean, wonderful equipment, easy to use...just makes the whole typical “laundromat” experience as enjoyable as possible. Owned and operated by amazing, exceptional, kind example of humanity. We need more people and places like this. Especially in 2024. You’ve got a gem, Athens. Take care of them.”
“Wonderful people running this place! Great laundry machines. Best place in town. They were having trouble with the ATM machine and they gave us 3 washers of clothes free. So nice of them!”
