Excellent value for money. The staff were helpful, The car park very well lit. Very pleased with the service.
Online booking was simple and straightforward. Staff were courteous and efficient. Happy with security - stopped at exit gate because number recognitiion of number plate was not working. Would defimitely use again.
good facilities, friendly staff and prompt collection at airport. all round, very good customer experience!!
Very easy to find and bus service does not require calling on return. All round very reliable.
can't complain for the money. transfers regular and on time. getting my car after holiday was quck and painless.
Very easy to find, good facilities, friendly staff, stress free would highly recommend.
Only gripe - I really would have loved to have had a hot drink of tea/coffee from your Summer Special office on my return visit (instead of driving to the nearest petrol station looking for a vending machine).
My only quibble would be a lack of signage from the M23 roundabout, only because I was the only one in the car, with only 1 pair of eyes. Once the signs were up, then the directions were brilliant
Excellent value for money. Efficient and friendly office staff and drivers.
Summer Special Parking was excellent value for money at £6.50 per day , and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful.
On arrival there's someone to tell you exactly where to drop your car. The reception staff are very efficient and the coach transfers both very regular and on time.
Althought it is only a 20 mnute wait, it would be nice to have a small electronic sign at the airport to count down the minutes to the next bus.
No problems with checking in, or getting the coach back from the airport. Coaches are every 20 minutes and they left on time - they also have clocks at both ends so you know how long til the coach leaves.
I was told on the web site that I would keep the keys. This was not the case. The signage to get to the parking area was not very clear. I did not know the terminal until after I had booked and the bus and transfers from one terminal to the other were long winded.
This is the second time we have used the summer parking facility and found it very easy to use the staff were helpful and as efficient as i would have been at 2.30am. As always it could have been a bit cheaper but it was the cheapest on the net at the time so all in all pretty good value for two weeks parking.
Good location, quick check in, regular transfers to and from the car park to the termial..just ideal really. Good price, the park looed secure and was well lit. Would recommend
Very good service, no waiting around, freindly staff
