The garage is only about a block away from the Capitol building, so it's an easy walk. The garage isn't super wide, which I think is a good thing because it keeps drivers from speeding (hopefully). I had no trouble finding parking here during my visit. If you're heading to the Capitol or the surrounding area, park here!

I understand how parking garages work in the city. I parked here because there was a sign that said Guero's customers park free for two hours. There is no arm and no ticket when you drive in. I looked for a QR code and only saw one for a few premium spots by the entrance which were marked in yellow. There was no signage explaining how parking worked and no prices listed at the entrance, so I assumed I would get validation at Guero's or would need to scan my receipt. However, the exit was open upon leaving the garage and there was nothing to scan. I was there for less than two hours and the garage was very sparsely occupied, so at that point I just left. Well, my friend who had had an identical experience to mine and I both got $95 tickets in the mail from Premium Parking in New Orleans for "parking illegally." I appealed mine, explaining the situation and sending them a photo of my receipt, and they lowered the fee to $30 because I was a patron of the business, disregarding all of my concerns about visible signage, illegal business practices, etc. I complained again and they told me that all appeals decisions are final. When I tried to pay the bill, the website wasn't working, so I called and complained again. The employee was really nice but didn't pretend that he was going to help me at all so I finally said that I would just pay over the phone. About 15 minutes later he realizes that their whole system is down and that's why I couldn't pay online so I'd have to try a few days later. This whole process took about a month and was endlessly frustrating. Parking in a free garage shouldn't cost more than what I paid for dinner! Premium Parking runs on trickery and is funded by theft and I will be checking the ownership of parking garages in the future before using them to make sure I never use one of theirs again.

It's a tight space, so it's unlikely your vehicle will make it entirely parallel to the kiosk to get it. The garage allows prepaid parking; you can scan a QR code to get in. Once inside, the has very tight quarters. One helix is responsible for heading upwards; the other one heads downwards. The cross over points exist in every level. Certain spots are marked as reserved, so check carefully for any signs posted within the parking space. Lastly, the levels are marked P1, P2, ... so if you park at a space that is between two P levels, and it is your first time here, you might mistake which level you parked on when taking the elevator back up. So if you feel like your car isn't where you thought you left it, check a level up or down. The security guard working there states this type of situation occurs all the time. The elevators are pretty neat. They have a kiosk outside, from where you select which floor to go to prior to going inside one of the three elevators. Finally, parking there after working hours appears to be a pretty nice value.

To make things worse, you have to drive on the wrong side of the lane in several areas, which is both confusing and dangerous. And if that wasn't bad enough, the ceilings are insanely low -- I hit my car on the concrete in several places, and it's clear that others have too, given all the chunks of broken concrete hanging down. The whole place feels like an accident waiting to happen. I will never park here again and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
