All the Universal hotels charge according to the number of nights of your stay. I think it was $10 a night when we were there...don't know if it has gone up. We stayed at the Royal Pacific and had a hard time finding a parking place over the weekend and did not use our car one night because too many other cars were circling the lot looking for a parking place. Hopefully the Hard Rock has more space for self-parking. Of course if you like to valet park, there's always room, but it costs more than $10 per night.
