The wait for pickup at the airport was very long. There was a lot of up sales once we finally spoke to the sales man.Reviewed 6 Jan 2025

The shuttle van from the airport was fast and convenient. The representatives at the desk were friendly and efficient. There was no line like I have seen at other airports. The return process was fine (except the first representative failed to print us a receipt and we got no email either so had to go back). The car itself, however, left a lot to be desired. It was much smaller than the “typical” model they advertised and though it said “or similar” we didn’t feel it WAS similar. The interior had clearly not been cleaned and was missing a floor mat entirely on the drivers side. It had not been washed, at least not recently. As such, the wipers were so dirty that on the drive home, in a downpour, they honestly were a hazard — we could see next to nothing of the road due to the smears. When we tried to call the desk to let them know of these issues, no one answered… for three days. And when we emailed and requested a response, we got none then either. So communication was a huge problem too. In the end, we cleaned it ourselves and luckily the wipers didn’t need replacing, just a good scrub. But we were extremely frustrated.Reviewed 23 Aug 2024

Insurance not included in price quoted or presented as an option. Price then doubled at pick up when car picked up to include insurance. Not receipt or rental agreement provided at pick up. Called ro request invoice not received, Bank statement transaction is for twice price quoted at pick up which is 4 times price quoted on KayakReviewed 12 Jun 2024

The hidden fees and what I was charged vice what I paid was outrageous. I was quoted less than half of what I ended up paying. I was deeply disappointed in this type of activity. I would much rather have upfront and honest prices and not feel like I was ripped of and taken advantage of.Reviewed 21 Apr 2024
