Cheapest one for the area
Pros: Cheapest one we could find for the area and dates that we needed. They gave us a choice of two vehicles when we got there. Most of their vehicles have back up cameras, so that’s helpful. We got unlimited mileage and could feel it ease with whatever choices we made that involved Driving a bit of a distance. The car we got only had 3000 miles on it and was great on gas. We got the Ford fiesta. Simple no-frills but for $325 for six days, it’s the best deal you’ll get in Boston.
Cons: To be honest, I hated driving up to the seventh floor to park. I am terrified of heights and driving up seven stories was torture for me.

Mazda Gets it Done!
Pros: The Mazda I rented offered a smooth ride and it was good on fuel economy. I really enjoyed driving the Mazda around Boston and south to Cape Cod. Nice comfortable ride!
Cons: The Mazda is a little low to the ground for me as I'm used to driving a full-sized truck at home for business. But I knew what I was getting into. Not a big deal.

Way overpriced
Pros: The car brand.
Cons: Cumbersome to get car in garage. People rude. Took forever to get car and no other customers. No gas stations within 15 min of rental drop-off

Pros: Car was ready and warmed up when I got to the vehicle. Good value for the car we rented, and much better value than if we had rented at the airport. Was able to upgrade on the spot to a larger vehicle.
Cons: I didn't read the fine print when reserving and thought this vehicle was at the National rental facility at Logan rather than in downtown Boston. They were not helpful at that counter, and landed up having to pay for a taxi to this location (about $20 each way) and back to the airport after dropping it off (although cost savings on the rental far and away made up for this). Having to drive down seven levels of a parking garage to exit was annoying, but not a deal breaker.
