“Car wash is very nice. However we bought hr highest wash package ($20) and it asked if we wanted to add some upgrades. We did, and it came to a total of $27. It appears that it gave us the wrong wash package as we didn’t receive the Triple foam. Besides that, it’s a nice wash.”

“A lot of what I would characterize as 'unreasonable' complaints around this location in other reviews. Parking lot too small?! are you kidding me its huge.. but I digress. I agree that the 'flex down' in store size has resulted in more limited non-pharmacy offerings, though generally most the things I need are still there. The pharmacy staff here is top notch, both the pharmacy check-out staff as well as pharmacy manager. They get to voicemails super quick, work with you when insurance is being difficult like auto-applying discount cards to show you options. Having worked with nightmare locations in the past like South Boston's Broadway CVS, this one is an absolute dream.”
