## SpotHero Reviews
  ### 1. Useful in Denver

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Graham Y. | Sr. Sales Development Representative, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 31, 2022

**What do you like best about SpotHero?**

Spothero almost always discounts against the "walk in" rate for parking. And since it updates what is full and what is not very quickly, I use it every time I park downtown in Denver.

**What do you dislike about SpotHero?**

One time it said a parking garage was open when it wasn't. Besides that, everything works pretty well and it hasn't happened since that one time. So, once out of probably 200 times it malfunctioned a little.

**What problems is SpotHero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Spothero also syncs with my business email and company's travel reimbursement, so I'm able to automatically use my pre-tax travel allowance to pay for my work parking.

  ### 2. SpotHero: Transitioning from WFH to In-Person Office Work

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 16, 2022

**What do you like best about SpotHero?**

I like that I can compare prices on different garages within a set radius of my job.  The interface is friendly and compared to other apps that provide this service of discounted parking rates, I believe that this one is the best overall.  Customer service provided by the company is always understanding and you can cancel a reservation with no charge if the booking does not work for you.  I also appreciate that the app is connected to PayPal, so you do not have to directly use a card.

**What do you dislike about SpotHero?**

I dislike that there are not any loyalty points or rewards for multiple bookings.  For notifications when bookings are close to ending, it would be helpful if a text message or email was sent.

**Recommendations to others considering SpotHero:**

Download the app.  It will help you navigate parking in cities with high population densities and limited parking for a discounted rate that is more times than not better than competitors.

**What problems is SpotHero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use SpotHero when I have to go into the city for work.  It has saved me a lot of money on parking costs.  It makes the commute more accesible.

  ### 3. Making parking easier

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Camille K. | UIUX and Graphic Designer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2021

**What do you like best about SpotHero?**

The thing I like best about spot hero is the interactive map, it helps me see my current location and what I'm trying to pay and the distance that's walkable in my area

**What do you dislike about SpotHero?**

I dislike that at times there are so many price points, I think not having a price filter makes it difficult at times, what if my friends and I only have 12$ and only want to spend that? We'll have to look through the list of all options or search through the expansive map

**What problems is SpotHero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Parking and garages while going out to eat or heading to work. Benefits that I've noticed are being able to not worry about where I'm going and if I'll be able to find parking, saved me so much time

Its a reliable service that my clients recognize, so its easy to use this to show that you "shopped around", found the best price possible, and that its a legit reimbursement. Because I live in a major metro area, they have a large amount of options and purchase choices. 

  ### 7. Only waited an hour for the guarenteed shuttle 

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Airlines/Aviation | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 21, 2019

**What do you like best about SpotHero?**

I called to have the shuttle arrive, but after waiting for 45 minutes and it still didn't arrive after to calls in I called a 3rd time period finally they informed me that the shuttle would be arriving under the name of a different hotel. I'm not sure how it was supposed to just guess to walk up to every single shuttle and ask if it would take me to my hotel even though it wasn't listed on the side. Terrible service! Not worth the money and don't use again.

**What do you dislike about SpotHero?**

Not worth the money and who wants to wait an hour for the shuttle?

None

Instead of stressfully circling a block looking for an open spot at a meter or an overpriced parking lot, SpotHero lets you view alternatives and pricing up front.

Sometimes the price of a parking spot can be expensive but I do not believe that it set by Spothero.
