Compare that to the long stay car parks, where you need a compass and a bottle of water just to find the bus stop. Who has time for that? The short stay turns a stressful drop-off into a smooth, almost luxurious experience.
Plus, the car park is spotless and well-lit. You might even see a few supercars parked next to your hatchback. It’s a bit like people-watching at a fancy airport hotel—entertainment included.
