Parking downtown

I%26#39;m looking for a secure lot to park overnight downtown. I also don%26#39;t want to spend a lot if possible. I am staying at the Milner, but don%26#39;t mind walking a bit or taking the people mover to get there.

-cheap

-overnight

-secure

Thanks

Parking downtown

Greektown casino is probably your best bet at free. You might have to validate parking, and I%26#39;m not 100% sure of their overnight parking rules. It is a five or six block walk to the Milner, or you can take the people mover to the Grand Circus Park stop.

How does one validate? Drop a few quarters in a slot machine?

You have to go into the casino and then ask for your parking to be validated. I%26#39;m not sure if they%26#39;re requiring you to play now or not.

I don%26#39;t know if they%26#39;ll let you do it all night. Another option that is closer to the Milner is the Detroit Opera House which would be around $20.

To validate you had to take your parking ticket into the casino and get it time stamped at a time clock at the players club (or was it the cage??) The casino is open 24/7 and they mainly worry about downtown workers taking all the parking spots during the day, so you are probably good overnight.

Sweet. I%26#39;d probably toss a bit of dough their way anyhow. Maybe I%26#39;ll walk out ahead. Maybe I%26#39;ll score with two smokin hot chicks too.

I wouldn%26#39;t count on Casino parking working quite that way during Final Four, if that%26#39;s why you%26#39;re asking.

I parked at the casino last night in the new structure on Lafayette just off of the I-75 exit ramp. There was no charge, or even a ticket to take to validate. There were two people sitting in the booths, but they were just waiving people in. My guess is that they were controlling parking earlier in the night since the Red Wings were playing, but I arrived mid-way through the third period so the game crowd was already parked.
