Gintong parking. It's about time for a regulating body

[Gumusut_Amige]

i don't have any issues on the parking rates imposed by any establishment kasi alam ko naman na parte yan ng bisnis nila. wala naman kasi tayong batas na bawal maningil ng parking fees ang mga establishment. regulating it... imo malabong mangyari yan. don't get me wrong, kung meron mas mababa na rates bakit hindi
ang hindi ko maintindihan ay yung mga hotel na yung parking fees nila ay hindi pa isinama sa hotel rates para iwas hassle lalo na pag ang cashier/counter ng checkout at parking ay magkaiba, at yung mga nag employ ng mga b*b*ng guards na pag nabasa ang parking tiket ay humihingi ng additional penalty

Hindi naman kasi lahat ng hotel guests may kotse.

Wala pa kong hotel na nastayan na hindi libre yung parking when I was a checked-in guest.

BTT: we live in a capitalist world. Bat ko gagawing 20 pesos parking fee ko kung pwedeng 300?

It's all about profits and you shouldn't be so surprised about that. If McDo can charge 1000 pesos for a cheeseburger, they would - except that at that price level, they won't have any customers anymore.

But for parking, supply is limited and demand is growing, simple as that. People can commute but most are too spoiled to leave their comfy cars and take public transpo. They'd rather make futile complaints about parking fees because they don't want to be paying so much for convenience. Thing is, the price of convenience will just steadily rise unless you either increase supply by having more parking lots or developing more CBDs outside Makati/Fort/Ortigas, or decrease demand by improving public transpo and getting more people to commute in the metro.

And do you think the government will step in? Doubt it. Matutuwa pa sila - they don't have to deal with the issue of lessening cars on the road anymore since the private sector is doing it for them.

Pretty much.

I don't see a problem with the parking rate. If you have no business at the hospital, then you have no business parking there, di ba?

Parking in the whole of Alabang used to be free. But now that traffic is increasing, there are fewer and fewer free lots. Last ones, I think, are S&R and South Supermarket... they're still too far away from offices and other businesses for it to matter.

McDonalds Alabang, ATC near the church, SM Las Piñas open parking. Metro Mall, Puregold & Shopwise Alabang validates parking tickets, good for 4 hours. With the cost of real estate, taxes, cost to develop parking areas, naturally, they would charge. I keep a mental note of those that charge too high, like metal parking in Shopwise. I would avoid them in the future.

Same here. I patronize more often establishments that offer free or reasonable parking fees.

Which hotels? Even the cheapest hotels I've gone to (and I've gone to some really crappy hotels) have free parking for check-in guests. They have to... otherwise, no business. Even those that have you park on the sidestreet strip along Roxas Boulevard.

I once had a brand new test unit parked beside a movie star's sports car when we stayed at a casino on Roxas. Didn't even need a ticket or validation. Pure pogi points lang. (The car, not me. )

Shopwise in Festival validates? Really? Which parking area? For Puregold, are you talking Molito? Still, I prefer South Super, because it's less hassle to go to.

Metro is the best, if you can get a spot. No hassle basement parking, it's inside ATC already, and it doesn't cost that much even without validation. But you've got to wake up early in the morning to get a spot there. And they only open at 10. South Supermarket opens at 8.

McDonald's Alabang, great spot, also, but it fills up right away, and if you're early enough to get a spot there, you're early enough to get a spot at Metro. ATC by the church... too far from the mall. And worse, wrong side. All the places I need to go are on the other side.

Nowadays... specially in metro manila... i'd be happy if there's parking space available... free or not :D

Shopwise in Festival been doing that for ages anywhere you park in the area. Catch is there is a minimum amount you spend in their grocery, same goes for Puregold molito. Personally, I like parking in Puregold molito basement. Slots are wide & there is always parking. I just walk across to ATC.

Teka, free naman ang parking sa hotel if naka checkin ka.

Abusado kaso ibang motorist eh. Gagamitin ang parking lot ng isang establishment pero establishment are not getting any business from them. Ang nangyayari yung mga legit customers nila eh di maka park.

Tulad na lang sa South, sa may molito. Yung covered parking under pure gold. Palibhasa fix rate {last time I parked), protected pa from sun and rain, kaya puno sya during office hours. Ngayon yung mga true customer ng molito eh walang choice kundi sa malayo mag park.

[gearhead000]

^I was about to say that. Nauso na nga rin kasi yung pag may free or cheap parking... yung mga malapit na offices/business centers dun na nagpa-park maghapon mga empleyado. Nakahalata na rin kaya kanya-kanya nang pamamaraan para di ma-over run ng mga "freeloaders". Especially true dun sa mga malalapit sa call centers.

bos boybi, yung remington hotel malapit sa terminal 3 charges parking fee even for guest.
ang sistema pa naman ay iisa ang parking cashier location na nasa B1.
pag ang car mo ay nasa B2/B3 daan ka muna sa B1 para magbayad.
ayaw pa naman pagamit ang emergency doors gusto thru the lifts.
pag guest ka at gusto mo ng flat rate, kuha ka muna ng validation sa concierge counter next to their checkout counter.
walang problema kung pa-checkout ka na dahil magkatabi naman. not recommended kung labas-pasok ka with your car.

laking plus talaga yung business location, they can really dictate their terms!

wag mo na intindihin mga taga call centers bro, sa gabi lang naman sila napasok. unless pang gabi rin work mo.

[victorevolution]

hotel? shangri la hotel makati offers free parking(if your checked in), you just need to validate it or they will give you parking passes(for longer stays), heck even dropping off to get your laundry done is free, even if you went beyond the 15 minutes, you just need to have the ticket validated.

[noitimed]

Sa Centris Mall Quezon Avenue may bayad na ang parking nila. Dati nung libre pa puno palagi dyan especially dun sa basement parking nila. Ngayon kahit weekend o kahit payday palaging may bakante.

[funkeemunkee]

^Tama lang ginawa ng Centris. It weeded out the free riders.

[zechs]

Mas naiinis ako sa open parking sa moa. Nadatnan ko one day, halos lahat UV express ang naka-park. Moa and yung open parking lot sa tabi ng podium. Punong puno din ng mga UV express.
