As of July 1 2010, parking at Wyndham National Harbor goes up to $17.00 a day. A lot of people complained about being charged the current $11.00 a day. Those headed to Wyndham National Harbor for the 4th of July weekend will be in for a surprise, talk about fireworks. Come to think of it, Wyndham National Harbor just open February 2010. In 5 months time, the price increased by $6.00 per day.

I would stay somewhere with better metro access.

Wyndham does not own the parking garage. Is this just a summer increase? This is one way to keep mainteance fees down and in a points based program can be a pretty good idea.
 
It also makes the 45-minute "update" a little more enticing because they will pay the parking fees. We held it to the 45 minutes and just said "no.... thank you." If we had been there for a short-stay, then forgetaboutit! Because WYN doesn't own the parking garage, they have little control over fee changes.
 
Wyndham's La Belle Maison in New Orleans is $25.00/day when I was there Sep 09.

They don't own the parking garage there either; may guests discovered going over to the same garage directly, the daily parking rate was much lower. Of course, they did not have the resort's valets doing the run & fetch but they could load & offload the other members of their party in the resort onsite area as where the valets would bring their car.
 
The San Diego property Harbour Lights is similar @ $29/day. Most urban locations are going to have high parking/valet fees.
 
Self Parking In/Out Privileges?

It's not necessarily just a matter of having the valets retrieve the car, but also that the valet parking includes in/out privileges. I am questioning whether they had in/out privileges if they used self parking. When we stayed at SF and San Diego, I looked into parking offsite, and while the daily rate was cheaper if you parked yourself, since that rate did not include in/out privileges, we decided it would be cheaper to valet park. It's my understanding from other posts that in/out privileges are included with the valet parking at National Harbor, but I haven't stayed there myself.
 
Stayed at National Harbor in April. The $11/day included in/out, because you just had a ticket that was valid for the days you were staying. And yes, it is a parking company running the garages for the area, not Wyndham

Which is lovely and we prefer Alexandria! But Old Town is really REALLY difficult to get a reservation. NH increases availability to the DC area and the beautiful thing is that both can be booked from our internal system. We don't have to rely on trades to get there.
