A compact or midsize car would be an ideal choice of cheap car rentals in Lewes. Lewes, Delaware is a fairly bike-friendly state, and many of the roads in the Lewes area have designated bike lanes. A smaller car will make it easier to navigate around cyclists and give them enough space. Parking can also be a challenge in the downtown area of Lewes, particularly in the summer months when it can get quite busy. A smaller car will be easier to squeeze into tight parking spots.
In general, city and residential areas in Lewes have a speed limit of 25 mph unless otherwise posted. State highways and major roadways tend to have speed limits of 45 mph or higher, with some sections of Route 1 having a limit of 65 mph. School zones generally have a speed limit of 15 mph during school hours. Additionally, certain areas like construction zones or work zones may have reduced speed limits that are clearly marked.
Paid parking is required in certain parts of Lewes, such as on the main street and in the downtown area. The cost for paid parking is about $1.50 per hour, and the meters accept both coins and credit cards. However, there are free parking options available outside the main areas of town. Visitors can park for free at the city-owned lot at the corner of Schley and Savannah roads, which is just a short walk from the downtown area.

Pros:
The car was fine. It drove well, and there were no problems.. Ir was adequate I'd use them again.Cons:
There was no one at the car rental pickup when i got there. I had to call a number and no one answered. AS i was calling the 2nd number, a man showed up. There seemed to have been some trouble with my credit card. The man was patient and we got through it. I would have liked a reminder about the tolls and that I didn't have EZ pass.One location in Lewes

Aug 2018
Cons:
There was no one at the desk and I had to wait for a while. The guy then asked me how much I was supposed to be charged and seemed very distracted. He also attached me to the wrong account, which caused a long delay when I tried to return the car in Manhattan.
