City Center Parking

The worst. They quote random prices for monthly parking. Called. It seems nobody working there knows their own prices. The valet for the underground lot between 5^th and 6^th) are EXTREMELY rude. At least in the mornings, which is when I went. The woman answering the phones at the office also yelled at me for calling for than once (???). I tried to contact the manager but he never returned my call. Don’t bother with these fools. Poor management. There are Joe’s Auto Parks everywhere for varying prices and 200% better service.

This is is for their lot on Spring and 8^th at the NW corner.
I needed monthly parking for my new loft close by, and they happily took my $ 180 for the month. Only problem was, they didn’t tell me that they close around 2 days a week for filming almost every week, so I kept coming home and not having a place to park — they gave me a $ 10 credit for one of those days each week, but the bigger problem was all the nearby lots were filled and I had to park far away. To make matters worse, that credit would only be applied to my next month’s rate, and there would probably be 5 – 8 closings then too, so I would probably never get that money back. Rude attendants who didn’t care that even though I assumed i was paying $ 6 a day for a guaranteed spot, they didn’t need to tell me otherwise. Awful.

Parked here on a Saturday at 12:04 am. Walked two blocks to where I am was supposed to go. Place shut down by cops. Walked back at 12:10. Been here for six minutes asked the guy for a refund as a favor since it wasn’t my intention for this place to be shut down. Was just told no refunds !!! He started yelling at me and getting very aggressive as I literally stood there passive and calm. At 99% of parking structures if you are there for less than a certain amount of time they don’t charge which is completely reasonable. This is complete bullshit. And just because this guy is an illegal alien and can’t get a job anywhere else doesn’t mean that I should have to suffer for the poor customer service he is providing.

Keep going. This is for 240 W. 4^th St. location. $ 3 advertising from the street. Charge $ 5.75 inside. Close at 11 even on Thursdays with no clear notice. Unless you want to take a cab home and back the next morning for your car.

Not sure where all the hate is for this place. Cheap parking, what do you expect?
I left my car here for a few hours and it was still in one piece when I got back. Small victories?
The guy who greeted me when I pulled up took $ 4 from me and then I went to the booth to get some form of a receipt/​ticket. They asked for $ 4…misunderstanding. So I explained to them, they didn’t speak much English but I was like «I gave money to the guy in the white shirt». Crisis averted.
Sketch area. But cheap parking, no issues.

I parked overnight at this garage after doing a little research on the best, cheapest places to park downtown. The rate I was quoted online was $ 7 for approximately 16 hours of parking overnight, the parking attendant when I entered (who was holding a $ 7 sign) confirmed that overnight parking was only $ 7 (which was the daily max) and I paid it assuming I would be able to leave the garage the next day without having to pay again.
This was my first and probably last time parking overnight in downtown Los Angeles. What they purposely don’t tell you and put in fine print somewhere inside the garage is that all the rates reset at 6am, so unless you leave downtown by sunrise, you will have to pay the daily maximum twice, i.e., $ 14. I suppose in theory that you could park here from 6am-​6am the following day and only pay $ 7, but even if you only park for 7 hours from 11:45pm-6:45am, you will have to pay $ 14 for two days worth of parking. Lesson learned.
But to make matters worse, the parking lot attendants were very rude & demanding when I questioned them about this seemingly unethical practice of letting people believe they were only going to pay for one day’s worth of parking. They clearly rip people off all the time and get away with it. So, if you must park downtown overnight, do not park here!

This is for the City Center Parking at 220 W 21^st St. since they don’t have a Unilocal for that one.
Came back to my car dented and scratched. Confronted them about it, but they denied having done anything. Started accusing me of accusing them (what?) of causing the damage so I asked for their names, which they refused to give to me. Don’t know why they wouldn’t of they were innocent. I started taking photos when one of them turned on his own cameras and dared to demand for me to «get off private property,» saying that i was «trespassing». What the actual fuck.

This place is a scam. I went to meet someone to drop off an item. I literally parked, took two steps off the property and was told the person was now several blocks away. I asked for a refund and while one attendant was ready to give me a refund (knowing full well I was there for less than a minute), the other guy was steadfast on keeping the money. I called the corporate office, where the lady that answered the phone was a complete bitch. The supervisor that came by was a complete asshole. Apparently, he is a supervisor, but he has no real authority. He told me if the attendant wanted to give me a refund it would have to come out of his parking. The attendant felt awful, because he knew I shouldn’t have had to pay, gave me my money back. Telling me he didn’t want me to be unhappy. His supervisor should have taken a cue from him. For me, it had nothing to do with the money. It’s the principle. Park anywhere else but this place!
