Patriot Parking

The worst parking garage known to man. I cannot believe them. I have a huge dent in my car because of their irresponsibility. They do not give a crap about your car what so ever.

DO NOT PARK HERE! PARKING ATTENDANTS WILL STEAL! I parked my best friends car here at 10:00AM — we had a few clothes hanging in the car, and her GPS in the glove compartment. We stopped by at 3:00PM to pick up the clothes– THEY WERE GONE! We asked if the car had been locked, they DO NOT lock the cars at this lot, and many people come in and out. They also told us that nobody has ever stolen from their cars, which we found to be ridiculous, as the cop who came said that crime had been high in this area recently.
The staff was incredibly rude to my friend and I to the point where we felt very uncomfortable. We asked for the owners name, and the managers name– we were told we didn’t have ANY RIGHT to know this. We could file a claim with them, but they would reject it. We laughed, but then asked for the form– and they wouldn’t give it to us!
It was a horrible experience – long story short— pay an extra dollar and go someplace else where they actually LOCK the doors, and the attendants don’t STEAL from the cars they are parking. This place is a joke, and I wouldn’t trust my car with these people.

I parked here on a visit to Philly on the recommendation that it was cheaper than some of the surrounding lots. I parked my car at approximately 1:30 pm on Day 1 of my visit, noting that the cost was $ 17 for 24 hours of parking — not bad. I was planning to visit a different area of Philadelphia the following day, so I made sure to note the time because I wanted to be out of there within 24 hours to avoid extra charges.
Well, my plans changed and I ended up deciding not to move my car. I came back at 12:30 pm on Day 3 of my visit (47 hours of parking). The attendant told me my bill was $ 43. I asked him why, and he said I had parked OVER 48 hours and that was the cost! Now, if he had given me some other BS story that there was an extra fee or something for parking over 24 or 36 hours, I might have let it go. Instead, he spun some incoherent story about how I actually parked my car at 8:00 am on Day 1, and that he had been working until 3 pm that day and did not see me at the time I claimed to have parked. I was FURIOUS!!! Not only was it physically impossible for me to have parked at 8 am (I was still sleeping in my house in NJ), I remembered who I gave my keys to and it was NOT this clown. He told me my ticket was stamped for 8 am. After I asked him why he was trying to rip me off he quickly agreed to give me a bill for $ 34 — the listed cost for 48 hours of parking — and said he would «figure it out.»
I don’t know if this is a habit of this particular garage or the parking company as a whole, but the attendant was clearly assuming that as an out of state visitor I’d pay the fee without thinking twice. Do not trust these guys. I’m never parking with Patriot again.
