Pros:
Staff was great, Pickup was flawless. Vehicle was perfectCons:
It would have been nice if the branch we used was open later so we could physically hand the rental back in. We had to drop it off and leave keys in a drop box. Minor issue, though.2.0 Poor

Pros:
The car was comfortable and easy to driveCons:
Booked the car online, but when I arrived to pick my car up, the staff said there were no cars available. Had to wait over an hour for a car. The car also reeked of cigarette smoke. Vincent was friendly, but the rest of the staff was unfriendly and clearly didn’t care about the customers. Would not book at this location again.9.6 Wonderful
