This was my only option and I was not happy.

I'd have asked the front desk to find another room for me, one that does NOT require valet parking. If the room was in competitive lodging, so be it. There is nowhere I need to sleep, nowhere I need to eat so badly that I'll let some kid get his kicks on my dime. Your option should have been asking if parking was valet when you made the reservations. If they say yes, and I'm not allowed to park my own car, keeping the keys? I find other places to stay. If Valet parking is the ONLY option for the whole damned area? Rent a car...it's cheaper than a clutch replacement bill...or worse.
