Great parking with a $7 weekend maximum which was nice. Was able to look around the Saturday market and take a long stroll around down town and old Portland which was a blast. read more

4th & Yamhill- This SmartPark has tighter spaces than the 10th & Yamhill, however on a Saturday, the floors above 4 were mostly vacant. So we were able to park higher floors with many open spaces. Elevator on the East side was clean as was the parking area. Looks nice and saw uniformed security patrols on several floors as we entered and exited. We were charged $7 and there were 3 exit lanes, so no wait at 5 pm. We paid before going up to the car, so exiting was just a stub scan. If the spaces were a bit wider, it would have been 5 star from us. read more

Would be nice to have security 24/7.Hold folks accountable. Reimbursement of damage would be nice. Just a few options to explore. read more

SmartPark Garages - Gotta love it! Maybe I should valet next time... not sure the alternative. Park at your own risk. - Parking Near Me - Portland, Oregon

UPDATE Smart park is now $18. In December they offer several Sundays with free parking so you can enjoy downtown. You will still have to share your elevator (if it works) with a homeless person or two. The pricing downtown is volatile, but at least they are not raising it $8 like Moda Tower. read more

Smart Park, I don't get it! Why are homeless people doing drugs in the stairwells every time I use your facility! Every single time! It's gross! I'm paying to park, they are using your building to do drugs. It makes me feel uncomfortable. read more

All four elevators broken. Had to go down/up 4 flights of stairs covered in urine and worse. As a person with a physical disability this really sucked. read more

TOURISTS- DO NOT PARK YOUR CAR IN THESE LOTS AT NIGHT. These lots are not patrolled. Our car was parked at night and they shattered the window even though there was clearly nothing in our car to take. a headache and $500 to get the glass replaced (sameday). TONS of other out of state cars broken into as well. Hotel employee says it happens every night. City of Portland homeless situation is really bad, its a problem that they cant fix, they AT LEAST should have a company patrol the lots 1-2 times per night to deter crime to help protect tourist business. My advice dont stay overnight in portland- your belongings are not safe, and no body cares. read more

I got a validation ticket and didn't realize that there were two together so the machine by the elevators kept rejecting it. I pushed the button and a lady told me to try at the actual exit. I did and obviously it didn't work so I ended up stuck waiting for help with all these people behind me. Very stressful. Tip, if you get a validation ticket at the saturday market make sure to check as they are thin and I had no idea there were too. The three employees I had to deal with at the Naito garage were condesending and rude during a very stressful experience. read more

Good value for money. We found parking here easily. It turned out cheaper than other places. There are many homeless encampments around it. No one bothered us, except a woman, who did a strange gesture. We kept walking and she lost interest. read more

My car was there 3 nights. Back passenger window was broken out. They took a quart of oil and some Armor All wipes. I wasn't surprised. My parking options are limited when I visit my daughter who lives in NW Portland. I wasn't charged for parking, so that was a positive. read more

Like Smartpark garages as they are convenient to events I want to attend downtown. When trying to exit the one on 10th Street they used to have signs directing people to always turn right, however, now they removed those and exiting is a nightmare (waiting 1 hour to exit is not okay) because of those that butt in going the wrong way AND please fix the elevators. Sad that there are 4 elevators and only 1 works. read more

DO NOT park here! It is not safe! Your car will be broken into and neither the police nor the Smart Park authorities will help you. DO NOT PARK HERE!! read more

Dare you to find a better deal in any city!!! Used to be 95 cents/hr, but now $1.60/ hr.... Great, great convenience for those needing longer than the meters! read more

It's debatable if it was a "smart" decision to attempt to find parking downtown in the first place, but if you're down there with a car, it costs more in both time and stress to feed the meter than it does to pull in to one of the many smart parks. Specifically designed for short term needs, these garages are only $1.25 an hour if you're there for less than 4 hours, and if you spend $25 at nearly any store downtown - validation baby! $2 after 6pm? Every other city would kill for parking this cheap and convenient. read more

SmartPark Garages - Parking Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Why do I continue to waste so much time circling the streets of downtown Portland looking for expensive parallel parking when I can just pop into a covered Smart Park lot, and (usually) save -- not spend -- money for the convenience. I like the angled parking spots in this lot - feels bigger than the lot next door. Also, the ramp to exit is exclusive in that direction, no bumping into cars headed in while I am on my way out. It seems like hardly anywhere validates. I'm sure some businesses do, but I've never been to them. read more

Cheap and always has parking available. Right next to downtown shopping which is great!

The Smart Park is always my go to place when searching for a place to park downtown. The garage is designed to be a short term solution for your parking needs which typically when I'm downtown I plan to be short term. So, at $1.50 an hour for the first four hours today. I found it to be a deal. I looked at the handy sign they have on the outside that tells you how many parking spaces are left. There were over 150 left when I went in and 58 when I was getting ready to leave. A busy day downtown. Quick in and out. Bummer that Huber's doesn't validate but as I wasn't there for long it was $3 so I really can't complain. I'll be back when I need a cheap and nice place to park. read more

Avoid this parking if you can. Very bad management. It's like a trap. I got stuck here for half an hour. read more

Convenient and safe to park. The place had a parking attendant on duty. The only issue I had was with the non working payment machine in the lobby. read more

Normally I wouldn't take the time to review a parking garage but this was terrible. 4 of the 3 elevators were down along with the pay machines. Had to walk down several flights of stairs and all the way around the building to pay when it was time to retrieve my car. Then, Only to have to walk back up those stairs carrying heavy bags... paying for parking to make your life miserable, is no joke! read more

Smart Park can be really convenient when you need to park downtown. It's comparable to meter prices, so instead of hunting for a spot it's easy to just zoom in here. There are periods where the parking will be full. I most often notice this on Friday nights. There was also one time where the machine that hands out tickets was malfunctioning. We were stuck for around 10 minutes and the service person on the intercom was extremely rude. The person who came out to physically help was rude as well! I love the fish and decorations in the garage. Keep track of where you are. I have a good sense of direction but I routinely get confused when exiting since there are two spots where you can leave. read more

This review isn't based on the price nor the location of the parking-both of these are great. This review is on the horribly rude man who barked at me when I needed assistance with paying. I wasn't familiar with the machine & was not putting my card in correctly, I'm so sorry I didn't get it!! The attendant was actually speaking with a friend who was holding up the other line & wasn't happy that I was requesting help. He kept yelling at me "I can see you're not putting the card in the right way"....I told him he wasn't being helpful..as I was the one not seeing what I was doing wrong...he was just rude. I'll know next time how to use the machine & I won't have to deal with him. Just a regular dose of kindness goes a long way. When I told him he wasn't pleasant in the least he looked shocked... Go figure! read more

This is such a convenient place to park in the middle of downtown Portland. It is safe and massive (multiple floors). Whenever we stay a weekend at a hotel, we always park our cars here since we end up paying somewhere around $15 for the entire weekend whereas the hotel we were staying in charged $30 a night for valet! Ridiculous. I'm glad we found this place, it is now our default parking spot whenever we're in the area. read more

This garage looks large, right price, etc. However, staying in the Hotel Monaco next door, all evening long all we heard were screeching tires - and we could see cars whipping around the corners at a high rate of speed. Either there were some people joyriding cars up and down the garage for an hour, or there were some valets having some fun... hopefully neither, looks dangerous. read more

Quick review. When it comes to parking in Downtown Portland and one wants to avoid the expensive outdoor lots or cannot find street parking....Smart park. $5 on weekends. Seriously. Awesome. read more

Info was not consistent online, but calling in clarified and was consistent with what we experienced in person. I was able to leave my car there from Saturday lunch time to Monday morning for less than $15 while staying in Portland for an event. Way cheaper than parking at the hotel, secure and convenient. Will use again, for sure. read more

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if you are visiting Portland and staying at a nearby hotel. You can park here for 24 hours during weekends for $12 and weekdays for $17. Beats the $30+ parking at the hotels any day. For evening/overnight parking, it says you need to be out by 5am but you can leave your car there and it will just add on the charge for the following day rate. We even left our car there at 3pm one day until about 11am the next day which means we paid a partial rate for the first day, an evening rate, and a partial day rate for the 2nd day and the total was $17. Still better than the hotel parking rates. Rates do vary slightly between other parking garages: http://www.portlandoregon.gov/transportation/article/254736. This location is open 24/7. read more

I go to a lot of movies so it has been life changing to be able to park in enough time to get to the movie and not worry about the time. Sometimes irs fuller than others but I've parked on three different floors and not had any problems. Easy to pay! read more

Parked on the 6th floor of the parking garage my first day in Portland. I was on a road trip for a work conference and hadn't had a chance to check into my hotel yet so I had my luggage with me, but it was hidden from the general public view. I came back from being at the conference for 4 hours to find my car had been broken into. My driver seat window was smashed, they left the weapon they used to break it and all my stuff scattered on the ground, my luggage gone, along with my cooler, sleeping bag, backpack, etc. (Luckily I had kept my most expensive items with me). They had rummaged through my glove compartment, I believe they were trying to find proof of ownership of the vehicle to try to steal it. There are no cameras anywhere in this parking garage and the man ( a security guard) and women working at the ticket booth at the entrance were clueless that there was even a break in and just looked confused when I told them that my car had been broken into. In order to steal all my stuff it would have had to been obvious walking around and trying to bring all the stuff down the stairway or exit or a car must have been driving around for what I have been told, out of state license plates, and targeted my car. If you are from out of state, be careful parking here and look into Portland's crime records especially about stolen cars. read more

When I drove in I asked how much to park overnight. I was told $17. The reason I asked is it was late at night and there was no signs posted that gave the rates for overnight. I picked up my car in the morning. BOOM. $30. No more need be said. Buyer beware. read more

Five dollar weekend parking, best deal in town. The review below which mentions a garage next to Hotel Monaco is incorrect, the closest Park Smart garage is several blocks away, and Park Smart doesn't have valets, oops. Don't forget to validate, free parking is good. read more

cheap in comparison to other lots- you get what you pay for! smelly urine soaked facillity- machines break down- attendants do their best but supervision sorely lacking- cars are broken into regularly smart park not responsible! how nice- long time to get out when problems occurs attendants are freezing ever since they took out booths read more

Warning--Smart Park becomes Dumb Park if you're a minute over four hours. I went to see a long movie with friends, then a brief lunch afterwards. To my surprise, my parking fee was $14.00!!!! I could have parked at a real parking garage all day for $9.95. I always used to opt for the Smart Park, but no longer. Also, they no longer accept cash, so be prepared to pay with a credit card. read more

Star park recently upgrading the ways to pay to make it easier and faster. However, aside from the reduced staff, the raised their prices today. They went from 12.50 a day to 15.00 a day. I can go up a couple of block and pay 10.25 for day. I will not be parking here anymore. read more

Parked here all of labor day weekend for 29 bucks. Deal? I'd say so. Checking in and out was quick and easy.
