Compact SUV

KAYAK
Easy pickup and car was clean, smelled brand new still, and had great comfort. Rented a compact suv but enjoyed the VW Jetta though I don’t necessarily care for sitting so low to the ground. Drop-off was just as easy and would easily rent from this location again!

Intermediate SUV

KAYAK
I understand it would be more expensive to select different pick up/ drop off locations. However when I asked about pricing to extend 1 week it was $1100+ vs. other companies were offering under $300 total for a new contract. I’m not sure why extending would be more than triple the price of the standard going rate for companies in the same area.
