I hate hate hate Avenue K. Apologies to those who love the place. It must have the most stupid & confusing parking lot in the whole of KL. The signage is terrible and there is only ONE ticket payment machine in the whole entire building - and IN the mall at that. So u probably have to scan all the floors before coming across the darned machine located at the far end near KGB. KGB is Kim Gary Beyond - dont even try asking me what the heck the last bit is in there for. Not only that, they also have terribly confusing labelling of all the floors which are B1, B2 and B3 (okay - these are fine and obviously are basement levels), C (concourse?), UC (im guessing upper concourse), M (mezzanine?) G (ground) and L1, L2 & L3 (levels 1-3). So when u put them altogether on the parking lift buttons and dont have a bloody legend ANYWHERE to refer to, u get:
B3 B2 B1 C UC M G L1 L2 L3
After u get out of the parking elevators, it takes another guess as to which of the many doors around lead to where. We actually stopped on about 3 floors before finding our way out of there. Another gripe is that the whole place is still pretty vacant. Yeah, they were pure geniuses to open a mall directly opposite KLCC with boutiques carrying almost the same brands. And food - there’s hardly anywhere to eat. The ones i know are KGB, Kiku Zakura, Roma Pizza and Hainan Kitchen (i only know of this one coz we had to go thru a different passageway on a different floor to pay the stupid parking ticket).
The very first time i drove there to park in this oddity, i spent almost half an hour looking for my car because they conveniently shut off all of the parking exits after 11pm (including the one which i came out from) and the guard let us into a totally different one at a totally different area. Me & joeeey panicked like heck because:-
1. We thought the parking ticket exit time would lapse; and even worse
2. We though my car had been stolen.
We actually walked up and down several floors looking for my car.
Next : When u exit the parking, there’s this sign next to the parking ticket machine that reads " DEAR SEASON PARKERS…". Season PARKERS ??!!! Does that word even exist?! Correct me if im wrong, but shouldnt it be something like Season Parking users or tenants or something??? Or are they addressing a bunch of Parker pens that are reallyn in season & can drive?
Gawwwd i hate that place.
