While I was fine with it for me, but I did notice a number of people struggling a bit with the grading of the parking lot and the distance to get from vehicle to the building entrance. There was also a light snow covering which no doubt added to the challenge. These were all solo drivers. The parking closest to the entrance on dirt snd not level either. Can that area be graded to level and blacktopped? Just a thought.
