I've never reviewed a parking garage before, but I think my experience could be helpful to others.
I parked here overnight- I called before coming and was told the price would be $25 (including tax) but if you make a reservation online, it's $20. Which is weird because if you make a reservation online, the quoted price is $16 (without tax). So tax is 20%..? If I hadn't called I probably would be upset, but having known ahead of time, it was fine. It was still cheaper than other garages I had looked up in the area.
Pricing is a little confusing because they say overnight vehicles have 24 hours but ONLY if you arrive before noon. If you arrive after 12pm, you have to be out by noon the following day.
E.g. I arrived at 9pm and have to leave by noon the next day. So 15 hours, not 24.
You leave your keys in the car and they ask that you call 20 minutes ahead of time before picking up your car so they can move it out for you. No complaints about the service.
Overall, this garage has good rates and as long as you understand how their "taxes" and pricing work, you should have no problems. I will mention that the street this garage is on is dark and feels a little dangerous. So if you plan to arrive at night, I suggest you have your pickup prearranged or buddy up!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - David H.San Jose, CA3314084Feb 13, 2011
Friendly, professional, and prompt service. Garage is clean, and I felt safe inside the garage. I've accidently left my expensive smart phone on the passenger side seat, and it was still there when I picked up my car (please do avoid leaving valuables in the car).
I will certainly park here again, but do have recommendations for folks that aren't as used to seeing the "other side" of the city.
We stayed at the Parc 55 hotel nearby. We chose this parking garage because of Yelp (big thanks to all yelpers for your yelps). Since our hotel was very close by and to make my girl feel safe, I've always dropped her off at the hotel before parking my car, making that 2 block walk through the gauntlet several times a day.
This garage does have drop off service within certain times. The operator there was very friendly and courteous.
For reference, I've posted a map of the route that I take to walk back to our hotel. The stretch on Ellis St, between Jones and Taylor, have literally several dozens of homeless folks on both sides of the side walk. I've highlighted that in yellow in the map that I've posted.
Also the stretch between Mason St and Taylor on Eddy St have a fair share of homeless and folks loitering outside of couple/several liquor stores. One time, I saw a female person on the ground, surrounded by several tougher looking male hovering over her. I was also approached for money several times.
The stretch on Taylor St, between Ellis St and Eddy St didn't have any one loitering during the few times that I walked between the hotel and the garage. However, this stretch of road isn't as brightly lit, and can feel uncomfortable for some at night.
After the first time walking back to the hotel and got approached several times on Mason St, I've left my watch, nice shirt, and wallet with my wife at the hotel the very next time that I needed to pick up the car (don't forget the ticket to claim your car). I did bring with me $11 cash, just in case... :pHelpful 7Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 881253265Mar 3, 2013
Yes the parking garage is super tight. The neighborhood didn't feel safe at night so I suggest dropping car/picking up in daylight hours. They staff were super fast, the price was the cheapest for overnight parking we could find and all worked out very well. Think it was $17 for overnight parking, while our hotel charged $50.
If you go to the website you can enter your email address and confirm you get that lowest rate.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Audrey C.Corona, CA359217111Dec 14, 2015

The location is primarily what set this parking garage back from a 4 or 5 star rating. Oh, Tenderloin... my boyfriend and I had no clue what to expect from you. It is a tough neighborhood. If you're not used to homeless people or drug addicts harassing you, you'll have a hard time. These types of people are out at any time of the day and yes, we were pretty scared, but the price for leaving our car overnight here was unbeatable compared to other parking garages.
We chose this parking garage because online it said it only costs $20/night plus tax. My boyfriend and I were staying at Parc 55 from December 10-13 and we needed a place to keep our rental car safe for a good price. Parc 55's parking was $58/night - yeah eff that. This location is fairly close to our hotel - I'd say it's about a 5-10 minute walk. The garage itself is right next to the Tenderloin police department too so if you really are afraid of the neighborhood, there are literally cops right outside a block away.
Now when we got everything settled, which was fairly quick and easy, our supposed $60 total ended up becoming $75. Apparently they say that the extra $15 is because of their taxes. Yeah, their system is flawed and they can basically charge people whatever they want, but it was still one of the cheapest options around that we could get close to us. You pay up front when you drop off your car and you get a ticket that says you paid. DO NOT lose it. We had to pick up our car before noon or else they'd charge you for an extra day or something. That part sucked because we didn't want to leave the city so soon.
Overall, our car was kept safe without any damage for 3 nights and for less than $100. That's all that we wanted and asked for.Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0 - Marc A.San Jose, CA18372Apr 22, 2011
Wow, what a great place to park and just a few blocks from Union Square! The parking garage is very clean and well lit and I paid only $17.00 for 24 hours! "Don't be scared," Abdo the vallet told me. Even though you see lots of homeless people (Tenderloin area) they will not bother you. It is very safe." Abdo was right. At 11:30am, with my duffel bag and suit bag in hand, I walked 3 very short blocks to reach Powell and Market St, right in front of the cable care boarding area! Abdo and Amin (Mgr) are very nice and helpful. They told me were my hotel was located and which way to walk. If you are looking for a clean, safe place to park your car, I highly recommend EZ Public Parking.
