peer agreement (net): +1| self parking estacionamiento / estacionamiento regular / estacionamiento sin valet Explanation: A google search on the following term set : "self parking" estacionamiento reveals several options. If self-serve is the only option, it seems to be left as just estacionamiento, since self-serve is assumed as the norm unless otherwise specified. In places that offer both types of parking, the distinction is made between valet parking and "estacionamiento regular" or -- as one place put it -- "estacionamiento con o sin valet". Of course, if your target audience is in Spain, the word of choice is "aparcamento" rather than "estacionamiento." |
