While, in the past, the self serve laundry took cash (not just on DCL, but other cruise lines as well), DCL washers/dryers now operate with the KTTW card on all ships.i think I read somewhere that the laundry on the Dream uses your key to the world card and not quarters. Can someone confirm this for me? Thanks!
What level is the laundry on please
An excellent resource about laundry on DCL ships, including pictures and location info: http://disneycruiselineblog.com/2013/01/onboard-self-and-full-service-laundry-and-dry-cleaning/
And they are tiny!!!
I've heard that about the pods, but they've worked just fine for me. I never had a sudsy problem at all.They are tiny.
We made the mistake our first cruise of bringing laundry pods. One pod, one load. Lets just say there were a LOT of suds. It took 4 or 5 full wash cycles until there were no more suds. A costly (time and $) lesson.
We now bring a small travel Nalgene bottle filled with our favourite liquid HE detergent and a small measuring spoon. 1 teaspoon (maybe 2) is all you need [actually, unless clothes are smelly or visibly dirty they get remarkably clean with just water, in a pinch, at least in a front load HE machine...].

Purex does not make these anymore.I don’t use vacation time doing laundry but we always take a few of these just in case. Very easy to travel with, compact, no liquid, etc.

I don't think anybody makes a 3 in 1 sheet anymore.I used that one as an example since I couldn’t recall the brand. They may have been wash-eze.
There are laundry spots all over the ship, as the link indicates, but in my experience they get wildly different levels of use, seemingly at random. You'll go into one that has every machine in use, then go down two floors and find one that's completely empty. You just have to find the one that works for you both in location (I'd rather go up/down more stairs and not walk the full length of the ship) and availability.

As there are laundry rooms on all stateroom decks, you could go up (or down) a deck and find one closer. That's what we did on the Fantasy.I usually do laundry while traveling - doesn't bother me. On the Dream, the washers/dryers were small but not too bad and the pricing was fair (the last cruise I went on had free laundry - that was fabulous!). My only issue was that they were at the opposite end of the ship from my cabin!
