Review from Marlon T.

I never thought I'd be reviewing a parking garage. But this was a novel experience so I had to.
I've never parked my car in downtown SF overnight so this was new to me. I was staying in the Hotel des Arts which was just a block away. The hotel and the parking garage have an association so I was told to park in this garage. You get a discount for overnight parking.
The parking garage is valet ONLY. I am always iffy about using valet parking since I don't really need to pay someone to drive and park my car. Additionally, the driver might steal something in my car! I did put my valuable (iPod, sunglasses, coin purse) in the trunk before I let my car be driven. I also should've left only the key to the car, and not my whole keychain in the ignition. Be sure to do this just in case something happens.
Anyway, it turned out to be a good experience. My car was safe in a shaded, protected garage. The workers were friendly and helpful. Nothing was stolen and got my car back easily.
I recommend this garage if you want to park overnight. 4 stars because it doesn't look that nice inside and when I parked at first it seemed fishy and the attendant didn't look friendly. -

I thought I had wandered into a regular parking garage when I realized they charge every 20 minutes!
And once you're in, you're in. Expect it to be a PITA to turn around or back out.
Lastly, I like to park my own car. It's nice that they valet, but you're paying for it! -

While I was getting my wisdom teeth extracted, the valet guys were helping themselves to things in my car. I didn't remember to bring the valet key this morning.
I came back to my car with my glove compartment unlocked. And the area between the front seats, everything was rearranged.
The passenger seat was moved much further back to what I had it set to.
As far as I know, nothing is missing. This is the one thing I hate about valet parking. People stealing (not in this case that I know of) and touching my shit when they're not supposed to.
This garage is so pricey. That's cuz you're paying for valet guys to park your car and riffle/steal your belongings.
Can you believe I had to tip these guys? URGH!
From now on, I am parking across the street at the Sutter/Stockton garage.
I called the garage to inform them of this. The guy wanted our license plate number to see who parked our car. I didn't feel comfortable giving him my license. He was of no help and said "without a license plate, I can't talk to the guy." So you can't have an all staff meeting with them? Give everyone a heads up that their fellow colleague did this and there will be consequences?" Fucking bullshit. I bet they're all in on it. -

Pricey, but very accessible. None of this parking and circling going on... You pull in, trade the valet your keys for a ticket, and head on your way.
Damage: $7 for slightly over an hour, but the all-day rates are $19 if you're in by 11, out by 8, and for hotels they have a $30 all-day pass where you have 24hr in and out access. The price is the only reason they're 4 instead of 5 stars. Pretty good if you have an expense account and/or don't want to deal with the hassle of street parking.
By the way, the valets there are incredibly nice and take great care of your car-- they always put the seat back in position, etc. -

I'm a spoiled brat. I don't' like to walk around alot and I don't like circling for parking. With that said, this garage is perfect for me if I don't want to deal with the largeness of the Sutter Stockton Garage and my destination isn't as close to the other garage where I normally park.
Valet service pretty much: pull in, give them the car, and they park it for you. Of course it's not cheap, but as my father says, at this age, we can afford to treat ourselves. Though he probably didn't mean for me to apply it to me, as I'm not as aged as he is.
Still it saved my feet, they were pleasant and quick, and I would gladly sacrifice a drink or two at a bar to have such a convenience when going downtown. -
