Great service
(January 6, 2012) I used Smart Park in Philly to park my car for an extended vacation. It was one of the best parking experiences I have had. The shuttle was very prompt in both directions. It is just a 5 minute ride to the airport. One the way back, my car battery had died in the cold weather as expected. The shuttle driver fetched the equipment and jump started my car in no time.. He also made sure my family stayed in the shuttle van all nice and warm while we were doing this. All in all, a very positive experience and I would definitely go back.

Happy Repeat Customer
(August 18, 2011) When a travel agent arranged parking here during a trip overseas,the service was excellent. We booked again on our own for a recent trip and got a great internet rate plus the same excellent customer service. The drivers, lot attendants, and cashiers are friendly and efficient. Parking here has been by far the best part of our airport experience. We'll be back.

Great first experience with Smart Park
(August 17, 2011) The staff was very courteous and the lot was well lit. I arrived early in the morning and they had the van pull up right to my car and take my bags. The ride to the airport was short. I made it there with plenty of time. When I arrived back, I called the dispatch service and they had a van arrive very shortly after I arrived at the pick up zone. It was a full ride going back and we made a few stop to get other passengers, but overall, it didn't take long to get back to my car. I arrived at night and again, the van pulled right up to my car and even helped me put my bag in the trunk. Overall, I found the staff very pleasant and helpful and the service excellent. The lot is well lit and it's in a very convenient location. I had no issues finding the facility or finding my way back to 95. I will use this service again.

(August 2, 2011) I have used Smart Park for both family vacations and business and each case was perfect for our needs. The service meets and exceeds the expectations. Besides that its more cost effective than the airport long term parking.

(July 15, 2011) The pick-up and ride to the airport was great - very efficient!! The pick-up and ride back to my car from the airport was a little rocky. Several SmartPark vehicles passed us by at the airport, and were already full of customers. I called after I picked up my baggage and expected to be picked up within 5-10 minutes -- that did not happen.. Keep in mind that when people return from trips -- they are ready to go home..

Weekend Parking
(June 21, 2011) Rate is very good. People are very friendly. Service was prompt to airport. Had to wait 10 min for pickup, but that is not excessive. Suggestions: 1) rent or put up some signs in the area to give directions to the Park - wasted time looking for where to turn to find the park; 2) remind folks to REMEMBER the section where they parked - no one did this, so we spend a few minutes driving around when a reminder would have been much easier; 3) promote the car cleaning and other services - would have liked to have had my car detailed, etc, while gone, but did not know about the service - maybe a coupon for a free wash or something [one place I used to park washed every car when they left the lot - that was an excellent service and only took 5 minutes].

Nice lot; good customer service
(June 17, 2011) It was easy to make a reservation online and it was wonderful that when I parked I was met by a van right away who waited about 2 more minutes for any other passengers then whisked me to the airport for my departure. The only downside was that I was not able to print out a copy of my reservation which showed my deposit and the cashier, upon exiting, told me he couldn't read my receipt on my smartphone. Not good for a mobile app/interaction. I also wish they would allow prepaid reservations.

deposit
(June 16, 2011) only one question - when I reserved on line I made a deposit of $7.95 that wasn't taken into account when I paid my bill. Other than that, Smart Park was a great place to park my truck while being away - sevice was great. Thank you.

parking with reservation
(April 28, 2011) I called both Smart Park and Express Park about having a reservation on April 20 and was told by both of you it wouldn't be necessary. Luckily, I didn't believe them and made one myself. Both lots were full and would only let someone in if they had a reservation...your end of the deal worked well. The lots have some catching up to do. Express Park said they didn't think the reservation mechanism was working. You folks did well, however.

A great experience
(April 20, 2011) After reading the positive reviews, I decided to use Smart Park during my recent trip. The lot was easy to find, I got on the shuttle right away, the employees were courteous, and I arrived to the airport in a timely manner. When it was time for pick up, the shuttle bus was waiting on me (instead of the other way around). Again, the staff were all quite friendly and helpful. I plan on using Smart Park for my next trip. I was impressed by their business. Traveled on 4-15-11

Automation
(March 2, 2011) The only improvement that I would suggest is that Smart Park automate their reservations so that the booth attendants have computer access and the customer doesn't need to produce a paper copy of their reservation. When travelling, it's a pain to have to remember to bring the paper reservation. It's the wave of the future which is here now!

survey
(February 10, 2011) I have been parking at Smart park for over 13 years. I do love the service and the people. I recently made a reservation but found out that by pre-paying one day, i was required to be charged that daily rate vs my gold card rate. Not sure I would make a reservation again in the future but I still love Smart Park.

Great place to park
(February 10, 2011) I arrived a day after a significant snowfall. The lot had some spaces cleared and were quick to pick me up and get me to the airport. Upon arrival, I only needed to wait about 5 minutes before being picked up. I was impressed by the speed and efficiency of the operation. Well done.

(January 26, 2011) My arrival went as smooth as possible. I found a parking space, the bus was very near and then off to the airport. In about 20 mins. I was at my terminal. On the way back I called from the courtesy phone, walked out of the terminal and there was a bus pulling up. Everything went so fast and so smoothly. I am parking here again next week.

Great Experience
(January 3, 2011) Everything went smoothly from start to finish. We arrived at 4:45 AM on December 24, and a Smart Park van led us to an open parking space. The driver loaded our luggage into the van and immediately took us to the airport. Upon our return on December 29, we collected our luggage and called Smart Park. Almost immediately (less than one minute) we were picked up and taken back to our car. There was no snow from the recent snowstorm on our car, and the lot was completely plowed. Both drivers were friendly and helpful. A great experience!!

(January 3, 2011) The lot's on-site staff didn't know about the reservation system. When I arrived, the lot was ostensibly full, and they were ready to turn me away. However, I showed them the my reservation documentation, and they immediately acommodated me. This was the first time I'd used Smart Park. The staff people were pleasant and efficient. The cost was one of the best available. I will definitely use them again.

Smart Park Parking
(December 16, 2010) I've used Smart Park several times and have been disappointed. The Smark Park Van has always been right at my parking spot to transport me directly to Phil., Airport and the same on my return. I've never had to wait more then 5 minutes either at the Smart Park Parking Lot or the Phil., Airport.

(December 6, 2010) I have parked at Smart Park for the last 15 years. During Holiday travel, the lots are often full. I was thrilled to find the reservation system on-line. The lot was full when we arrived up on 11/26, but because of our reservation - we were able to park at Smart Park which is always our first choice!

(December 1, 2010) when we arrived with our reservation at first we were told they were full, but when I said we had a reservation we were allowed to enter. what's the pont of the reservation if they are going to over sell? also, at the checkout, they had only one cashier working at first with at least 6 vehicles waiting to check out. the van came promptly to our terminal when we arrived back in Philadelphia. eveything else was Ok.

Parking over thanksgiving
(November 30, 2010) Facility staff was very friendly. I appreciated the very short wait for pickup at the terminal- especially knowing it was the busiest of days. My only complaint was not being able to use a coupon when I reserved my space. If I go to the trouble to reserve a space, I should also be able to use my coupon( there was no published code on the coupon to use). It was turned away at the gate. I did however enjoy the pack of smarties as we departed.

Slight disappointment
(November 20, 2010) Parking was fine and pickup at the Airport was quick. However, when I returned, I did not have my reservation email handy, and the clerk did not seem to have a copy. While she eventually agreed to charge me only the monthly rental for my 3 weeks stay, I believe that, overall, I was overcharged $7.95 for the first day rental. This should have been subtracted from the monthly charge.

Great Parking and Transportation
(October 29, 2010) I have always had excellent service at Smart Park. The lot is very secure, the transportation is fast, and the drivers are very friendly and helpful. One day I failed to remember in what section I parked and the driver was most accommodating. He said, "No problem we'll find your car." He drove around until we found it and he acted as though it wasn't a problem at all. Flying is hectic enough without having problems with parking. I just wish flying was as easy as parking. I also think the price is very fair. Thanks!

(October 21, 2010) The amount of parking space seemed to be quite limited. After driving around the lot there was only one space I could find to park.

Other than that the stay was fine and traveling to and from the airport was quick and efficient.

(September 21, 2010) Relative to long-term parking at Philadelphia Airport this service is much more convenient and cheaper.

The parking areas seem well protected.

Overall Good
(September 9, 2010) My experience was good in terms of parking and having someone there instantly to load me in the van with my suitcase and take me right to the terminal. My only complaint is that when I went to pay for my parking, I mentioned that I had seen a coupon on their website from my phone (I had to search for their number when I landed after forgetting to ask for their card when I was dropped off). But the woman at the window would not give me the discount without the physical printed out coupon. It's not a huge deal, but it would have been nice if they had given me the special rate anyhow.
