I passed on the Valet recently when I was visiting this place for the first time. Decided to check out the lot on my walk over and noticed how close the valet's were parking the cars to each other. Another Valet came over to pull an SL 500 out and noticed he touched the door of the car next to the SL.
Right there I knew I made the right call.
Also, my frined runs a place and sources out the valet service to an outside company. Apparently after a few incidents they decided to have someone else pay out claims for dings and scratches. Something you should ask before handing over the keys, you may not know that the business is cleaning their hands of all responsibility.

Even when I park in a valet garage I park it myself unless I know the guys well.
Also careful pulling the car out of a tight spot a Valet may have parked your car in.
I had an incident once where I was handed the keys becuase the car was right in front of the place but I could tell that there was barely any space to pull out without bumping into the other car. I was tempted to tell the guy to pull out himself but I took it upons myself and promptly put a small scratch on my front bumper.
