    No working escalators
    Iris J.

    Parking here on a random weekday evening was easy. There was a ton of parking and since we entered after 5PM, it was a $9 flat fee. I felt like the parking price was good, considering that it was downtown Los Angeles. Minus two stars because the escalators did not work, which was not great, especially since I have joint issues, and it smelled soooooo gross, even through a mask. I would park here again if I had to, but hopefully I won't need to come to this area again anytime soon. Also, something to keep in mind - the clearance is very low, so if you have a high profile vehicle such as a large SUV or truck, you might not be able to park here.

    The pricing for parking seems very fair for the convenience compared to the adjacent peer competitor outside lots. Parking is great, and cheap enough where if you were thinking of using public MTA transit to get here in fear of expensive parking, fret not, although I'm all for the eco-friendly trains and buses, I'm also an advocate for safety and life conveniences. The MTA can be sketchy, usually smelling like weed or urine and a bit of an urban jungle at time where you're wise to put your cell phone away (fear of snatching) and clutching onto your personal belongings as well as avoiding eye contact. So, if you're okay with driving and picking times where traffic isn't an issue, I'd recommend coming here to park if you're going to the Central Market, especially at night.

    My girlfriend and I had reservations to stay at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel for a family wedding, but their parking fees were outrageous! My friend discovered that this nearby parking garage was a lot cheaper! It was only $20.00 per night flat rate! We were new to the downtown LA area, and had a hard time finding this place at first, mainly because the heavy LA traffic is so distracting and caused us to circle around a few times before we noticed an entrance. Once we entered, I was relieved to be safe and sound in a protected garage. We did have a hard time figuring out what area of the lot to park because there really wasn't sufficient signage to let us know what streets we needed to walk towards to get to our hotel. Staff members were somewhat helpful, but didn't quite understand what place we needed to get to with our heavy luggage in tow. We found ourselves walking in circles and ended up climbing steep stairs of escalators that didn't work. Once we found ourselves out in the open air and hotel in the horizon, life got a little less stressful. All in all it was still worth the lower parking fees compared to the hotel rip off of $80.00 per night!

    I have read some terrible reviews (some even by people that I am friends with here on Yelp. The parking garage is between Los Angeles Central Library and The Last Book Store and directly below Pershing Square (where they hold FREE concerts in the park from the Spring until late August... Did I mention that they are FREE? Anyway, I failed to encounter the urine smell that I expected, I felt safe during my visit since Park Rangers were on hand to ensure that the day progressed in an uneventful fashion. I even stopped into their office to thank them. My only complaint is aimed toward the escalators. I parked here twice within a 3 week period and both times they either weren't running or only one of them was functional. I even made jokes, at their expense, that they haven't run since the Lincoln administration. Fix the escalator and I can easily see bumping the star-rating up a notch.

    They close this garage too often without notice--allowing only monthly clients only to enter.

    They really need to have cameras in this garage. Someone damaged my car and did not leave a note while I was in the office working. I inspected the cars in front of mine and noticed yellow paint transfers and damage to the side of a dark grey car. I notified security who came on a bicycle and took a report and photos. He told me that there are no cameras. While security was writing his report, the owner of the grey car came and she said that she did not know that she hit my car. If she would have returned to her car before I did, I would have never found out who was responsible. The security man said that I could pick up a report the next day from the office upstairs. When I went to get the report--no one could find it. Fortunately, her insurance company paid for the repair. But when I went to the office for my report, I was informed that they have approximately 30 accidents in the garage every month reported. Management allows people to abandon and park in the middle of the aisle blocking other cars from getting into and out of spaces. People race to spaces in the narrow corridors here.

    On Oct 1 no more 10$ parking for early birds it's not even an option. Disappointed they were the cheapest place near my job. Looks like I'll have to look somewhere else. Don't waste your time here ! OCT 1, 2018!!! Can never buy a monthly pass because they never have any either. Pointless.

    We were staying at the nearby Millennium Biltmore Los Angeles, and on general principle I wasn't going to pay $45/day for valet parking with in-out privileges. Particularly when the Pershing Square Garage was right across the street. Safe, well-lit, and $16 for overnight parking. Frankly, what more could one ask for from a parking garage?

    I use this parking garage whenever I need to go to DTLA. Relatively inexpensive and safe.

    Can you overnight park here?

    Yes—I parked here overnight on a weekend in July 2019. I took the normal precautions but my car was fine the next morning.

    Is this near the Westin Bonaventure Hotel? My daughter & her friend are staying at the Westin & they charge $50 for parking. Is it safe for them to park here & walk to the Westin?

    It looks like it's only a few blocks away from Pershing Square, so it would be an easy walk. Whether it's safe has more to do with the time of day than anything else. During business hours, the walk along 5th street will be past open storefronts…

The big food festival that happens every week is what initially brought me to the Row and there is so much to discover there. I also often come here to charge my Tesla ~ charging on Level 5. The Row opened almost 10 years ago on the edge of Arts District and is spread across 30 acres. As mentioned with the charging, they do have a parking garage which is really nice when coming here. And it's a nice garage, well kept and clean, free for 2 hours with validation. You never need to worry about parking when you come here! Like much of Arts District, it's kind of industrial chic vibes. It's an open-air spot with just lovely landscaping and seating all around. There are some excellent food options like Pikunico and Hayato, as well as Go Get Em Tiger for coffee needs. Very cool stores including concept spots and trendy clothing shops. And i'm def getting my next tattoo at Nonfromseoul. Aside from the brick & mortar shops and restaurants and weekly Sunday Smorgasburg, I've been to some other smaller cultural fests & pop ups here. It's always trendy and cute at ROW DTLA!

That being said, ROW DTLA is a dreamscape when it comes to filming content and just catching city vibes in a safe space. Located near the Arts District this space of buildings used to be utilized for the textile industry. With multi floored buildings creating rows of foot traffic on the ground this space is perfect for events, pop ups, and get togethers. It's one of the reasons why Smorgasburg is held here on Sundays. It's why on any given weekend there may be an event being held, whether it be to celebrate AAPI month or the different creatives in the area. This space is filled with homegrown businesses and unique shops to visit. One of my favorite places is Hightide which is a Japanese stationary and supplies shop. The vibes are immaculate and walking in really feels like being in a store in Japan. Another popular space is Scent Bar for those who love perfume and are aromaphiles. With plenty of small curated artists being featured in this apothecary of aromas, Scent Bar is a nice stop whilst visiting the Row. If you're looking for interesting and discussion worthy furniture A+R is a must, located at one of the ends of the Row. For good coffee with artistic vibes you got to check out GGET (Go Get Em Tiger). Next to that if you're looking for stronger waters is Flask & Field with smaller batch and independent distilleries and crafters. All of this and the parking is free for the first 2 hours. In LA, that's unheard of! And it's a large parking structure with modern infrastructure. Blessed. With all this, hopefully ROW DTLA will continue to grow with more businesses and still retain its charm as time marches forward. Good for a short stay or half a day, if you're looking for things to do in LA proper, ROW DTLA is worth your drive.

Yes, part of it is because it's smack dab in the center, but the main part of it is because a lot of the businesses I like to shop at and peruse are located here, as well as lots of the places I like to get food and snacks from. I like visiting what I deem the "Anime Jungle pit" since eventually the entire underground section was taken over by businesses related to or owned by Anime Jungle, but in that pit, when there's no crazy lines, I like to visit Anime Jungle, Q Pop Shop, Little Akihabara LA (depending on the collab pop up), Kiddleton Kiosk, and maybe I got into the model kit or the TCG/vidya game shop, but not as often. Outside of the pit in the plaza area, sometimes I like to go to Monkey Pants, but it is a small shop, but they have cute trinkets and sometimes character mascots have meet and greet events, Catch on the 3rd floor, Neko Stop, Maneki Neko, Tokyo Japanese Lifestyle, the Sanrio store, Nijiya for quick drinks or snacks, Yamazaki bakery for the meat buns, Mitsuru Cafe for super cheap dango and takoyaki, and sometimes they have cool collab decoration and events throughout this location. It definitely gets crowded and busy here, the parking garage can get quite fisted, so it's not somewhere I park normally, but I will definitely visit.
