ERIC
A Regular Customer
I've been parking at Airport Center for more than 2.5 years now. And although I've seen some changes, they are pretty minor and do not make an impact to the customer satisfaction. Good Things: 1. I have noticed over the years that the company is trying to integrate technology as much as possible (new website, electronic ticketing, texting for pick up). 2. More clear signage. 3. Newer shuttle buses. Bad Things (Critiques): 1. The spaces for parking need to be much larger. A lot of the mid size SUVs or even standard Sedans are not able to fit into the parking spaces in the garage. The Lines are often arbitrary depending on how large of vehicle you have parked next to. Then it creates a ripple effect, all the spaces are off. 2. Lighting is terrible. The parking garage should have more lights. This brings me to another concern: Safety. I've seen some dodgy bystanders around the block who stand around. I think the only determent is the Hotel, which sometimes has a Security Guard walks the perimeter of the hotel, and has some line of sight to the garage. The parking garage should employ a security guard 24/7 to patrol the garage. 3. Elevators are too slow. When you have one primary elevator for the entire garage, you need to speed up those elevators. I sometimes find myself taking the stairs which sometimes can be faster. 4. I have to admit, the driver are more or less very nice and very hospitable. However, almost every time, I've seen the driver pick up Airport Employees. I have become numb to this as this behavior seems to be tolerated. However, I do see some new customers, from their reaction on their faces that this behavior can seem somewhat strange. We're paying for this parking/shuttle service, so it should only be provided for paying customers. 5. I also have witnessed people rides AC just to walk away from the garage and perhaps take an Uber or Lyft. Patrons should have their reservation ready before boarding the shuttle bus. 6. ONE MAJOR LOOPHOLE: I'd like to speak to management directly about this. However, the parking garage has several loopholes that is probably costing the company several thousand dollars. Part of what I do is provide travel companies such as airlines, hotels, and car rentals video online reviews. And I feel that this loophole should be addressed. Overall, AC is great, its convenient, it's close to the terminals, and its comfortable. Know your car is in good hands. There are definitely room for improvement.
