Public Parking @ Ventura Pier

"4 bucks for the first couple hours and I think 10 bucks overnight. In CA that is incredible."

"ZERO STARS. THREATENING PARKING ATTENDANT. Came to Aloha Steakhouse today which is always amazing. Had the most threatening experience with the parking attendant at this place. We arrive at 1120 am in the pouring rain and there was no one in the parking both or walking around. Several machines are labeled out of order. We didn't see anyplace to pull a parking ticket but the entry ways to the lot were all open so we went in to park. On our way out the parking attendant was in his booth. We explained the situation and provide our receipt from Aloha which gives us 2 hours free parking. He started raising his voice telling us that even if no one is working the both we are required to pull a parking ticket. We asked if he could tell us where those were for next time and he got angrier saying we were trying to give him this story and he didn't want to hear it. He then said he was going to let us leave since we provide the receipt but said he wouldn't open the gate until we heard everything he had to say. My husband and I asked him to stop being rude which only made him angrier. After he finally opened the gate and we drove through, he stepped out of his both and took pictures of our vehicle. He also refused to return our receipt to us with our personal information on it. Don't park here."

"If you want your vehicle broken into, your private space violated, and all of your items stolen, park here. No security. No cameras. Any theft or damage isn’t their problem."

"If you are financially able to risk your car being broken into, having your private property violated, and having your valuables stolen, go ahead and park here. My fiance and I had two bikes worth $800 each stolen, as well as his air compressor set up worth about $300. There is no security and they are not held accountable for any damage or theft that occurs on the grounds. I would avoid being in this area with any valuable items. It’s a h•ll hole."

"went 15 minutes over 2 hour validated parking and charged 6 dollars! Pier closed, a large part of the structure fenced off inside, has structural damage, feels unsafe coming back in from promenade. Today first time with unfriendly attendant. Event parking seems to be hurting local businesses by the pier, fewer customers today, a sunday with nice weather."
