Padres Parkade

Worst parking I have ever experienced. Also went there for the Taylor Swift concert. Paid $ 30 plus $ 2 convenience fee in advance. Getting in was fine except the only parking left was on the 9^th floor. I was doomed from the start. Got back to the car at around 11pm. Got 20 feet down the ramp and stopped for a hour and a half. I didn’t expect to wait that long to get down 9 floors. Parking garage is close to the stadium so that’s a plus. Next time, I will remember to bring something to keep me occupied.

WORST RUN PARKING LOT EVER!
Reserved parking online for the Taylor Swift concert. No problem getting in to the parking lot. Getting out was a disaster. We got to our car at 11:00PM, backed out, drove 10 feet and DID NOT MOVE until 12:25PM! Despite having 4 exits that they could have used, they only kept one exit open. It was claustrophobic to say the least.
This parking lot may be fine for Padres games (that never sell out), but for any non-​Padres event, avoid this lot at all costs!!!

We paid $ 30 to park here for the Taylor Swift concert. The location was very close to Petco Park but we waited in our cars for an hour trying to get out! And the reason was because ACE couldn’t get all the exit gates open?!? Total disaster!!!

Perfect! Directly across the street from Petco Park. Reserved parking online which was so convenient when we attended the GREAT Rolling Stones concert. Clean and lit well. On the street I saw many cars being towed. I walked by feeling grateful that I got parking in advance for this sold out show. I’ll definitely use the Padres Parkade again. Lots of restaurants and bars within walking distance.

Debbie at the parkade is always very nice and smiling when I talk to her. She helped me figure out my microprocessor was not working and exemplifies how customer service should be. I’m happy to park here and know that there are hard working friendly people there to ensure all goes well. Big props to the parkade they doing great.

Get here early to get the best spot! You can’t beat the price and location. I get free parking, since I have free tickets and parking… but still wouldn’t mind paying for this particular garage. It’s covered and feels much safer than other spots in the area.

THE BEST HUGE PIECE OF BLOCK CONCRETE AROUND!
A clean, well lit garage that is close to the action (bars and Petco Park). I have used this garage many times, and I have NEVER seen some random homeless guy hanging out in the stair well or in the structure itself. That’s really saying a lot given the fact that they are practically bumping into each other on the surrounding streets.
Sure, the price might be a bit steep, but in comparison to the other lots around Downtown that you have to fight Friday and Saturday night traffic for, it’s worth it.
Bottom line: Safest, «closest-​to-​the-​action» parking around.

LET’S BE REALLY REAL FOLKS/​FELLOW UnilocalERS… WE’RE REVIEWING A HUGE PIECE OF CONCRETE BLOCK TO PARK AUTOMOBILES!
The great thing about this parking garage is that it’s way close to Petco Park and the surround restaurant and bars in the Gaslamp District. Whoever owns this parking garage has really got it goin on. I’m pretty sure that even when the Padres aren’t playing, this garage is used for the club/​party/​drunk/​newly 21 goers of DT San Diego!!!
The parking rate maybe on the expensive side, but you’re paying for the location. Really, that’s what you’re paying for. Location location location fo realsies!

In my typical fair weather fan fashion this past season, most of my visits were made when it looked like the Pads might make it into the playoffs. This parking structure is good for fans like me, especially if you plan ahead. Since I like to show up right before game time, the Parkade’s online payment option ensures a good spot will be available during popular series. It’s also fairly close to the stadium and many restaurants. Circulation in and out towards the 5 is simple.

I use this parking garage to park on game days when heading over to Petco. After this weekend I am now a fan of parking here when going anywhere downtown. I started my day wine tasting with a friend before heading to the game. I took Tenth Street all the way down and turned into the first entrance. There was no line and I paid the $ 20.00 to the attendant.
The ball park is a short walk and once inside enjoyed a few drinks. After the game we met up with a group at Basic. After realizing that I had a few too many drinks I called for a ride and left my car at the Parkade. Fearing what fees I would have to pay I woke up first thing in the morning and arranged a ride so that I could pick up my vehicle.
I walk in and with a sigh of relief I notice that along with my car still being here I had no ticket. I speak with the young lady at the front and she said that cars are left behind on game days and there are no additional fees incurred as long as the vehicle isn’t left all morning. Good to note.
I have in the past left my car and got a ride home only to find that when I try to get my vehicle I have to pay additional charges. Horton is famous for this. I once had to pay $ 145.00 for leaving it overnight.
The Parkade has easy access to and from the freeways and the staff is pretty friendly. Thanks you for looking out for people who have enough sense not to drink and drive.
