We used Galveston Park N Cruise this past week when we were on the Conquest and had no issues with it. We had planned on using EZ Cruise but my Mother-in-Law said she was going to park at Park-N-Cruise, so we thought, why not, we'll give it a try.
At first I was apprehensive because when we got to the terminal I asked an officer where it was and he told me that he had never heard of it and another person had asked him the same thing a few moments earlier. He said it was probably some fly-by-night parking service. That really calmed my fears, lol.
Park-N-Cruise is directly across from the terminal and was very easy to find. There are a row of buildings that face the terminal, the parking is directly behind those buildings. We paid online $45 for outside parking and that's what we got. We found the attendant and he showed us a place to park, they gave us a ride in a golf cart and dropped us off across the street from the terminal. All in all, it was relatively stress free.
What was even better is when we returned my husband was over there and driving back with our car in no time. Five minutes tops.
I would use them again.

We weren't "Lucky" that we got a golf cart ride, they did that with everyone that parked there. While they did not drop us off at the terminal steps, they dropped us off directly across the street. We had already checked in our luggage so all we had was our carry-on.
This is the only parking service we've tried, so who knows, I might have a different view had we used multiple parking services in the past. I can only speak of what I've experienced with Park N Cruse.
Given the choice, I would rather walk across a street with my carry-on than to wait for a shuttle to take us to the terminal. By the time I'm already standing in line to board the cruise, people that use a shuttle service are sitting, or waiting, on a bus somewhere.
The best part of parking there was when we were leaving. My husband walked across the street and within minutes he was there to pick me up. As I said before, it was less than a five minute wait from the time we walked out of the terminal before we were loading up the luggage and we were off.
