Aloha Dry Cleaners

On Monday morning of 7/18/22 I called Aloha to ask for an estimate on how much it would cost to bring in two curtains to be hemmed and how soon they could get it done. The man on the phone said he wasn't sure about the price until I brought them in and that they could get them done by Wednesday afternoon. Perfect. Upon arriving to the store a bit later that day, the man working said he couldn't believe that the person on the phone told me they would be done by Wednesday because it usually takes them a week. He made a few calls and was able to assure that they would be done by Wednesday. I asked him approximately how much this would cost me and he looked at the curtains but could not give me any insight into how much it would cost. The curtains are blackout curtains from target. They are 50"W 95"L. I paid $74 for the both. I needed them hemmed 11". I should have known right then that when he didn't give me an estimate this could be problematic, however I trusted him and saw another reviewer on yelp mention they paid around $20 for curtains to be hemmed so I figured mine would cost approximately $20-40 since mine were lined and there were 2 of them. When I arrived to pick up the curtains I thanked the man for getting them done so quickly and he made a snide comment like "yeah we should have charged you extra for doing them so quickly" which I felt was a little rude as I was very gracious and thankful and was planning on giving a great tip. (Plus the guy on the phone said this was do-able) When he said they were $105 I was shocked. I could have NEVER imagined this price. I asked him "$105? Are you serious? How could it be so much??" He briefly explained that alterations are expensive these days. I called 4 different alterations spots in the Eastside area and they all gave me a quote of a minimum of $20 and maximum of $50 for the curtains. While I am relieved to have my curtains done in time, this was so unexpected for me and I would have really appreciated it if they could have given me some insight into how much this would cost beforehand. I paid way more for the alterations than the actual curtains. I will be taking my business elsewhere next time as I feel he took advantage of my naivety

We came in here for a very simple alteration: hem a curtain about 7 inches. It took 2 days and cost $19. They did a great job on the alteration, but I was disappointed to find out the price. I wish they had told me how expensive it would be before I gave them the curtain. (The curtain itself only cost $15. I would have put safety pins in it or something.)
