Just park and tip the driver (obviously) or should you talk to the hotel as well? Just want to make sure I've still got a car, and in good condition, when I get back from trips!
Thanks!
I was an ATL commuter for a while and parked at hotels and took their vans as you stated. However, it was never a free parking deal. Most of the hotels charge 60 bucks a month to park there. Used to be 30 then 40 and so on. I used the Westin, Embassy Suites, and Marriot off Riverdale Rd. I would change hotels as prices went up but ended up back at the Westin when the price was the same for all of them. Westin had most reliable vans that ran a tight schedule. All of these are secured parking as well. I did check in to parking through the airport with the airline I was flying for and the cost was the same and parking was on the south side of the field. Since I'm a northsider it didn't make much sense to use it. Even longterm Marta parking was expensive. Some hotels get full too where the won't even allow any other monthly parking. The Hampton Inn on Riverdale was the cheapest at 25 but everyone there is grandfathered in and they won't let anyone else in. Good luck man.
