I also had a horrible experience parking there. I was visiting my brother and his fiancee who just had a baby at UCSD. I was going in to park, and there was a sign that said 3 dollar parking, but no attendant. There was a long line about 8 cars deep trying to get out, but I figured by the time I got out it would be gone. It was, but the attendant told me that I guess before 6PM or maybe 5PM or something, that it was 3 dollars per hour, but after 6 it was 8 dollars flat fee all night. Because I had gotten there maybe 15 min before it changed, and stayed for 45 minutes, I had to pay not only the 3 dollars, but 8 dollars as well, for a total of 11 dollars for a 45 min stay. I explained to the attendant, that there was no sign stating that, and that there was no attendant, where he basically said I was a liar and that there was never not an attendant. Horrible expensive parking, terrible service. I'd recommend parking at the patient and visitor parking which is straight down the road (large tiered parking structure) instead. There is also a ton of free street parking after certain times, I want to say after 6 or 7PM. read more
