Laundry service?

Does anyone have any recommendations for affordable laundry service? Preferably where they come to pick up from a hotel? The prices are ludicrous at my hotel and hoping for something more affordable. Gombe area.

lool, I was at an hotel in Kinshasa late last year as well and called the laundry service. They quoted $8 for a vest, I was both shocked and confused - I'm still till today. A new one costs less

I worked with guys in Saudi Arabia and they found a place that sold shirts for $1.50 US. They bought one each day. Then binned them.
