Straits Laundry

The humidity for a westerner in Singapore is short from torturous. After sweating everyday and having the sweat stains on every pullover shirt I decide to go wash in the Chinatown laundromat. Lucky Singapore is a modern and I found a modern new place to wash and dry clothes. There is a change machine that takes bills and gives you dollar coins. Regarding washers, the fee is an easy $5 to start with $1 more for hot and $2 for hotter water. Soap is included in the wash. Dryers start at $4 and an additional $1 for every additional minute. The place is well lit and ventilated. There's a TV to watch but the passing traffic helps break the mundane of spinning cycle of washing and drying that goes on and on and on and on and on........almost forgot as a modern city with a modern laundromat there is an app to download if you want to go cashless.

Really easy to use. Detergent is added automatically, no need to bring any. 6 large machines (14kg) and 2 more extra large. Same number of dryers. Very clean and close to Chinatown.

Really easy to use, you change the coins in coin changer and put all clothes and wait.
