Default Charging location

Will it matter if I charge my cart in my closed 20x20 garage?

As long as there is ventilation your good. Charging puts off hydrogen. Not good in confined spaces.

My garage is 20 x 28 and I charged it inside once. The smell was terrible. I just take it outside to charge then put it back in when finished. I keep the cart stored in a corner and it is difficult to ventilate even with the doors open.

Turn off the lights in the garage and look for daylight. If you see any, your garage is probably ventilated well enough to charger your cart in it.

My cart stays in the garage all the time.....and I charge it there as well. I do left the seat any time its charging and have never had a problem, my garage is a 3 car (36 x 24)

I have an insulated, detached 20x18 garage and I charge carts in there from time to time. It's not very ventilated at all. Yes I can smell the fumes, especially on older batteries that tend to gas more then new ones. Make sure there aren't sources of ignition like a gas hot water heater or air compressor that may start up nearby and make sure your fire insurance is up to date.
