Please bring back coupon code

Citygirl80

I used to love this app. You had the choice to pre-pay for a spot, or get a coupon code. They changed it though and now you can no longer get the coupon. This makes it tricky if things change because you are locked into the spot that you’ve already paid for. You can cancel the pre-paid but only up until the start time not the time you actually park. The coupon code was ideal because you could still choose not to park in the particular garage should things change. Life happens, and it’s nice to have the option to change your mind.

Perfect

Update: I downloaded the app again and the free parking info is back! The company sold it's soul to solely generating revenue. The new update only shows paid garage amounts so they can take a cut of the profit. NO MORE STREET PARKING INFO!!

So far, so good.

Used app for first time yesterday, and booked parking for the full weekend on E. 46th in NYC—for $54. DAILY rate in midtown is usually $50-$80. Arriving tonight...will update this review after check-in at garage, if necessary.

Street parking, back on, yay!

Best app!

This app always saves us money. We always use it as an alternative to expensive hotel parking when we travel.

Terrible experience - careful with surprise fees!

They charge a $5 processing fee and I got charged a $30 “oversized vehicle” fee that was not made readily apparent when I booked — then they refused to refund

Once the best, now the worst!

This new version is totally useless. You should not force the user into making the reservation through the app just to be able to export the directions into google or apple maps. That is extortion and a money grab. This app is an exact copy of Parkwhiz. If I wanted that horrible user experience, I would have downloaded that app. I had been using the old BestParking app for over 4 years now in NYC and never had any problems with functionality. It’s like these developers have never even tried to use their app for its actual purpose. Listen to your users! Bring back the functions of the old app. You should be able to get directions to a garage without having make a reservation in the app. Things happen - construction, accidents, the president being in town, all these things can totally screw up your commute and prevent you from getting to the reserved garage. Reservations should be optional, not mandatory! Add direction functionality to all garages with or without making a reservation. Thank you.

was great now total crap

i used this app since its beginning... it WAS fantastic, good UI, easy to navigate and get the discount coupons. Now it’s the exact opposite awful UI impossible to navigate and you must sign up to their app with CC info to get the discount. if you want to find parking with BestParking use their website or Icon’s parking app. these are much better and don’t require you to give up your privacy

What? I’m not making airline reservations!

The cheapest price shown for the Austin City Limits venue at 3:00 was $10 and at the “W” Hotel showed $18. At 4:30 the same spots showed $30 and $81. Gave up and went to another app that showed a ton of parking all around the venue and showed it at $10, granted you could not pre-purchase but you didn’t need to. I will be deleting this app as I found it lacking information. I am hoping they were just inaccurate and not simply trying to grossly take advantage of their subscribers.

Went from Best Parking App to Trash Parking App

Old app was useful, provided maps, pictures of garage but best of all the option to either reserve or purchase a parking spot. App now is cumbersome to use especially in a hurry and to make matters worse the garages are not honoring the purchases and you have to request parking management to get involved and a lot of time is wasted.
