Service was closed by the time I got there... will find out tommorow. And to respond to your PM, I really don't know of any places like that, sorry. Your best bet would be to call the hotel and ask them.

Pretty much most of the parking close to 5th is pretty safe, but they are all pretty much equal (all part of the Central Parking System). But your hotel may have some special recomendations as I mentioned.

Mayhaps the common " fuel lines disconnected at the sender " would be my hunch if it cranked but didn't turn over after you stalled out . Ask me how I know.

My fuel pump went out earlier this year. It was a little pricey because they also have to change a hose of some sort.
