Can i leave my rental car in a city parking garage for 3 days straight without moving it?

specifically i was looking to park in Carpark 15 - Yorkville - Cumberland or Carpark 1 - Charles St. east of Yonge to avoid paying the astronomical rates that the Park Hyatt is charging.Can i leave my rental car in a city parking garage for 3 days straight without moving it?
I'm not sure about that particular carpark, but I did this very thing in San Diego for four days and didn't have any problems.Can i leave my rental car in a city parking garage for 3 days straight without moving it?
Ask the parking garage. Varies from place to place.
You would have to check with each garage to see if that's allowed.
you can park there as long as you need, you just have to pay the bill. :-)
YES, YOU CAN PARK YOUR RENTAL CAR WHEREVER YOU CHOOSE, THE ONLY PROBLEM, IS THAT SINCE YOU ARE DRIVING A RENTAL, YOU MAY BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF SOMEONE MAY DAMAGE THE VEHICLE, EITHER BY ACCIDENT OR ON PURPOSE. HOPEFULLY YOU HAVE CHOSE TO CARRY AN INSURANCE POLICY ON THE VEHICLE. IF ANY DAMAGES WOULD OCCUR, YOU WOULD NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE. ANY PARKING GARAGE CAN BE DANGEROUS TO KEEP YOUR VEHICLE...(ESPECIALLY HERE IN BALTIMORE)...SO I KNOW FIRST HAND WHAT CAN HAPPEN...GOOD LUCK TO YOU. SOMETIMES IT IS BETTER TO PAY THE ASTRONOMICAL RATES AS OPPOSED TO HAVING YOUR CAR BROKEN INTO OR DAMAGED IN A CITY GARAGE. THE COST OF REPAIRS CAN BE MUCH HIGHER ON A RENTAL. PLUS, THE CITY WILL ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY IF YOUR RENTAL IS DAMAGED.
Are you driving the car from Florida? If you are flying in to Toronto and won't be using the car for 3 days, why not take the shuttle bus from airport? If the shuttle bus doesn't go to that hotel, the limo service is not much more expensive. You are smack in the middle of downtown, so do you need a rental car? When you do, there is probably a rental desk at the hotel. Long and short, why pay to rent a car and then park it? Enjoy Toronto, it's not as bad as the news is making it out to be.
