My daughter was home on college break to attend a church function. Parked in a parking lot that has LITTLE to NO lights allowing someone to see the parking signs regarding payment. She & several others parked there and got a parking violation. $40 if paid in 14 days...otherwise $60. Highway robbery. The parking garages don't charge that much. WTH!!! I went down to the parking lot to see what kind of signage and lighting there was. Yes, there is a sign that says "permitted parking 8-5pm" and under that in smaller lettering it says after hours payment. WHY not put that part in reflective lettering and bigger OR better yet - put up lights so it can be seen. I did call and speak to Daniel - the Manager and explained the situation and he was understanding and did drop the violation fee to $20 instead of the $40...which I am appreciative of. But please put better and adequate lighting up. Unless this is how you are making $$$ by not having adequate lighting. You are better off finding street parking or an actual parking garage. Way CHEAPER! read more

LOL a $60 parking ticket for parking in a literal dirt parking lot next to Payette Brewing that had been free parking for years. Didn't even see a "the car park" sign. read more

Scummy company with outrages charges. Parked in a side street I had before that had free parking after a certain time, turns out one side is free the other side isn't the sign numbers were only one number apart and it turns out the only option for that side was 3 hours at $18.50. Parked for only half an hour, no way would I have parked there and paid for 3 hours of time knowing that. No option for any time less than 3 hours is ridiculous and an awful business decision. I would have been willing to pay an hours worth of time had I known. Will never park in a lot or street owned by this company again. I would rather miss an event than give this company any money. read more

BEWARE. Deceitful parking signs designed to generate revenue. $40 ticket. Plus an additional $1.99 for online processing fee. Avoid these parking spaces if at all possible. Not city owned. read more

The Car Park - Hidden sign very small print - Parking Near Me - Boise, Idaho

See all

They are not helpful at all. Give tickets to handicapped people that never go downtown and was in a handicapped spot but still gave a 40 dollar ticket and won't dismiss it at all. Won't let you talk to any supervisors. Had one person say she could dismiss it then the call disconnected and when called back was told that was not going to happen. What happened to compassion for handicapped people. In Idaho, vehicles with a disability placard or license plate can park in any public parking space, including metered parking, without paying a fee. They can also park in restricted areas for unlimited periods of time. read more

The Car Park - Parking Near Me - Boise, Idaho

I am surprised that some folks got a first time violation waived. I have a monthly parking pass, and I parked in the wrong spot on my third day using it. With the morning rush in the garage where I had to back into my spot to get out of the way quickly, I completely missed the sign. Ginormous $150 fine on top of the monthly fees for the parking permit. I called customer service and got nothing more than lip service on how they understood how frustrating this could be, but it seems the only mandate they have is to be polite about it. I own that I parked in the wrong spot by accident, but cannot believe there isn't even a one time first offence waive for mistakes. I will be returning my pass in favor of riding a bike, and go with street parking when I really need to drive. read more

I arrived at their lot at 4:52pm. Their sign says after 5pm, evening rates cost is $7. The sign also says 12-5pm is day rates 1hr $2, 2hr $5, 3hr $8, & 4hr $11. I arrived 8 minutes prior to the evening rate charge of $7. I knew I would be at least 2hours maybe 3hrs at most. I knew in 8 minutes it wouldnt matter because after 5pm its evening rate charge is $7. However, trying to be fair in paying the 8 minutes I went ahead and paid for 3 hrs, thinking "Im covered" all night anyway. I come out just over 3 hours(8:30pm approx)later, to a ticket at 7:59pm. For what? So I go and dispute it. Not only did they deny my dispute, they ignored my disputed explanation, ignored my suggesting that their sign is misleading and ignored my easy suggestion so others dont have a problem. I wrote several emails, requested a number & name to contact,....still ignored. On top of all this, they double violated me so now they claim I owe $120??!! So apparently if you pay or try to pay for 8 minutes prior to 5pm, youll be charged day rates after 5pm. Which their sign does NOT clarify. Its misleading, and your dispute doesnt matter anyway, because you the customer doesnt matter! read more

The official parking Nazis of downtown Boise.....DON'T USE THEM THEY SUCK! You can pay for parking when the only spot left is next to a CRV parked diagonally or a spot that says no truck or suv parking...I spoke to Kendra, then Jessica the manager. Now I will have to talk to Jeff Wolfe the owner. This company is the parking scam artists of the Treasure Valley. read more

Horrible! They shut parking facilities down, and/or dramatically limit parking spaces while doing repair. They still allow open parking, so people who pay for monthly parking often can't get a spot. Very disorganized. read more

I was a shuttle Supervisor at the economy lot while I was on FMLA. On the day my orthopedic surgeon said I could return to work well guess what I was terminated, I didn't even have the chance of getting an interview with this company. You really need to take a good look at your AGM. He should be replaced, and 1 of your Swing Supervisor too. It's unfair. But that's just it. It's a right to work state. The swing supervisor vapes in the office and in all the vehicles. And sleeps in the vehicle or takes off for hours and hides where he thinks there's no camera's. read more

I work for a company that has an account with The Car Park. When I first started, I did not have a lot of information on how to manage our company account. Somehow, I got in touch with Margot Davenport. Margot was patient, kind, able to answer my questions and above all assist me with my needs navigating The Car Park system for company accounts. Every company needs someone like Margot Davenport on their team. Margot, thank-you! read more

Went in to Boise on Sunday as usual. Parking is free on the street. Saw a parking lot that said it is public parking on weekends. Understood that meant free. Was in for lunch about a half hour and was ticketed. Called them on Monday and they told me my first offense would be forgiven; said I did not have to pay. Be aware of these people as they will ticket you fast. read more

II missed the sign that was posted elsewhere on the lot. My bad. So I ponied up and paid the fine online only to find that not only do you get to pay $25, but then they tack on $2 for a "handling fee". Yeah, nice. read more

Employees find it appropriate to leave signs in bike Lanes and create hazardous situations for cyclists. Informed their employee Shawna of this and she ignored my concerns entirely, after nearly being in an accident due to her disgusting negligence it is clear that she and by extension this company have no care for the safety of riders in this community Appalling. read more

This review is for the pre-paid permit lot at the old Pizza Hut on Lusk Street. We bought our daughters a new car for senior year at BSU and needed temporary parking for two months before they could get parking at their apartment. Inquired through a phone call based on the visible signage at the lot. Instructions to go downtown to the office to pay for April. Daughters went back to pay for May. Very easy to figure out and everyone we encountered during the process was polite & professional. Could not have asked for an easier company to do business with. Will add that the lot was very safe. Would recommend this lot for students that need parking around the Rivers Edge, Vista East/West and La Pointe apartments. Very affordable and safe. read more

Terrible company to work for! I went in for an interview and waited 40 minutes before they interviewed me so I got a parking ticket just for them to OFFER ME $5 LESS THAN THE JOB POSTING SAID. Totally lied and tried to cover it up but completely wasted my time they pay $4 less than McDonalds so only really lame people work here read more

I wrote a review a couple days ago. I was frustrated and made a statement mainly to warn other people that were in a rush for a similar appointment as myself. The manager got back to me and helped me with this matter in a very quick fashion. I just want to make right what I messed up and thank the company for being understanding and working with me so greatly read more

I went to retrieve my car after nice dinner only to find a woman standing at my car and writing something down. I asked her why she was there and she said "this is not a free lot, you have to pay for parking. I told her that I had paid for parking and she said that I should have put the ticket on the dashboard. I told her I did but apparently the ticket had blown off when I closed my door. She said that there was nothing she could do about it since she had already started writing. I have parked in this lot many times and never had this issue. What ever happened to the friendly, accommodating people who are willing to help others in Boise...she said that she wasn't allowed to tear the citation up. Ridiculous! i have an entirely different opinion of this company and will never park in their lots again. read more

There are 27 signs in that parking lot explaining the rules to park there. You literally cannot enter or exit the lot, in a car or on foot, without seeing and being able to read the parking rules at least 3 times. read more

Beware if you park in lots belonging to this company. I paid the fee and still got a ticket. Tried to call the number, but of course no one was there. You can email them, but you can imagine how that'll work out. Take another trip around the block and park on the street. What a scam. read more

A scammer company. They post a small hard to read sign designed to confuse. The large print is Parking, which catches your eye, and then next largest print is the name of three restaurants the lot serves. The remaining print is too small to read if you are trying to avoid pedestrians and traffic, and you are past it once you have time. If you stay past a certain time when they places close, they fine you $50. The time stamp on my "fine" was not even past that time. Fortunately in my case, I was not driving the car at the time and I submitted an affidavit stating that. You can get these affidavit's online and submit them to them. I am not sure they can legally go after your credit rating. If they do, I recommend suing them and making it as painful as possible for them. These are disgusting, cheaters running this company. A clear sign stating $50 fine, in large letters would keep everyone out, and an honest company would put a voluntary payment system in, which if reasonably priced would afford them income without being dishonest. There is no one sign to warn you that the fine is $50, which is more than any of their nationwide car parks, charge for a day---the maximum is $30, and those cases a customer knows in advance what the fee is ahead of time. The bottom line, is these people use intimidation and threats to get people to pay. Since there is no gate, no attendant, and no clear signage, it is designed to trap people. It is noteworthy that parking is free on the street after 6pm, so they are looking to trap the unwary. The companies that share the use of this parking area, are in on it and do not warn customer about the scam. Those companies are Trader Joe's, Panda Express, and Chipotle. For this reason I no longer do business with these three company, at this or any other location read more

We went to a movie at the Flicks at 2:50pm on a Friday afternoon. The Flicks parking lot was pretty full, but we saw a sign a row over that read: "Overflow Parking for the Flicks" in large letters. We took one of those spots and walked over to the Flicks. Following the movie we returned to our parking spot to find a ticket on the windshield for $50.00!!! We were shocked and went to read the sign again. Underneath those large letters concerning "Overflow Parking for the Flicks", it stated "M - F after 5:00pm." We did not see those "terms" while parking our car. The sign should read "No Parking M-F until after 5:pm" to make their policy clear!! We felt that we were deceived and that this is how Car Park generates income. On Fridays the Flicks opens at noon. This is the only day that you can get ticketed on this lot before 5:00 for overflow parking, because there is open parking on Sat. and Sun and the Flicks doesn't open as early M-Th. The City of Boise charges $15 for a parking ticket. Where does this company get off charging $50? (There were plenty of open parking spaces available!) The ticket was written at 2:59pm, about 5 minutes after we arrived. Someone had to be watching us and not warning us. The latter would have been more like the Boisean way?! read more
