- Car hire in Middletown offers the freedom and flexibility to explore the city without relying on fixed schedules by public transport. You can set your time for visiting various attractions and even spend a lot of time on a single attraction site.

- Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) is the main airport near Middletown. It has various onsite car hire companies, including Avis, Budget, Enterprise and Hertz, where you can hire a car. The car hire companies here are in a separate facility, the Car Hire Center. The airport has blue-and-white shuttle buses on the lower level that offer transit to these Middletown car hire counters. For car hire in Middletown, ensure you have all the relevant documents, including a driving licence and identification documents, to complete the paperwork for hiring a vehicle at the airport.

Ensure you check for a clear point to enter the roundabout circle and only exit the circle after indicating your exit.

- Middletown experiences mild traffic during rush hour periods, from 07:30 to 09:00 and 16:30 to 18:30.

The car was very smoky smelling. Every tim ewe got in it, the odor was annoying. Especially since at checkout we signed a part of the contract that said we would not smoke in the vehicle. Seems it should be presented to us without smoke smell.Avis
