Modem

Modem at 75/8 Alba Iulia Street in the Buiucani district is one of the washes of the Modem chain in Chișinău. The site combines an automatic tunnel line — manual pre-rinse under pressure, active foam, shampoo brushes, protective wax, drying and hand wipe-down — with self-service bays and vacuums. The chain offers a night tariff and corporate cards for companies and accepts card payment, including via payment apps. Website: spalatorie.modem.md, plus Facebook and Instagram pages.

Customers rate the service positively: the tunnel is praised for speed and result, and prices are described as lower than expected. Criticism mostly concerns the self-service bays — worn brushes in some bays, low water pressure and foam weaker than at competitors — and the cleanliness of the site. For a quick wash the tunnel remains the safe choice; for self-service it is worth checking the bay before paying.
