It took 2hrs for me to get my rental keys when I landed. I had to wait 1.5hrs just to get checked in and then another 30mins just to pick up the keys after being checked in. Absolutely ridiculous.Reviewed 13 May 2024

I had a reservation for 10, and didn't receive a car until 11:15. All of the other customers had to wait at least 30 minutes, and they had reservations too. Based on location reviews, this is the norm rather than a one off occurrence. The car was fine.Reviewed 29 Feb 2024
