Solair Cleaners Now Open!

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Finally, after much anticipation… the cleaners on the ground floor of the Solair Wilshire opened on March 8, Monday!

The fitting room off to one side...

The nice owner Agnes was there with Sammy, who is in charge of alterations. They are giving away $5 coupons off $20 purchases that you can use at either the Solair Cleaners or at the soon-to-open Aroma Cafe, which has the same proprietor.

Prices? They have to take a look, but in general a sweater is at least 5.25 while a jacket is about 8 dollars. They say they’re cheaper than Imperial Cleaners a few blocks north.

Hours Open: 8:00 am – 7:00 pm, Monday to Friday; 9:00 am – 6:00 pm on Saturday; closed on Sunday.

Address: 3785 Wilshire Blvd, Suite #21, Los Angeles, CA 90010
Phone: (213) 381-9998
