My experience was the total opposite, I only ever used them in South East Asia and everyone was helpful, cordial and happy to help. Being a girl makes a difference but we did have female expats there who reported the same things.

After 3-4 days of the same clothes it must have been a special type of smell haha.

I still bathed 1-2 times a day, so it was not that bad. Otherwise, I would have done worse with the girls there. Though there is something about worn clothes, some girls liked the smell of my t-shirt if they were into me, as it reminded them of me. I was too intoxicated to notice anything, honestly. Though I looked like a sitcom character with the raincoat and crocs and trying to shuffle whilst wearing that. I still cant believe I was able to dance for 7 days wearing fucking crocs.

Otherwise, I risk catching the attention of creeps.

Most dudes are creepy by default. If you live in the west, then some might even be homeless drug addict kinds who would scare any sane female.

Where I live, everyone uses the laundry mat, and since everyone includes everyone and it's connected to an interstate highway, there is a broad range of personalities coming in and out 24/7. Being helpful and cordial unfortunately runs a risk of the interaction being extremely awkward; it's best to keep very mindful on one's business and stay extremely neutrally polite. I've never subscribed to the notion that most dudes are creepy; I think people just can be creepy and there's a lot of people going in and out of that mat.
