Pros:
This has become my preferred off airport location to rent. Service has always been quick and the employees are always attentive to customers coming in, who has been helped and who is waiting. Have received a ride home without complaint. Folks get upset when their model isn't available or walk ins are turned away but this is the business. Make a reservation and you're in good hands.10,0 Wonderful

Jun 2020
Pros:
The car type.Cons:
Having a vehicle where I was sent to pick up, rather then showing up there and being sent to another because they didn’t have any atm. Not being overcharged 100$ when my pick up was supposed to be 107$ and was charged 200$. The vehicle was not clean inside or out trash and weed bags, giving the car a nasty weed smell. The gas tank was 3/4 full I returned it full. Over just not a good rent. I would like to be contacted about getting a refund or at least the amount I overpaid. I have pictures of what I was supposed to pay and bank statements of what I over paid.10,0 Wonderful

Pros:
Tried a local pick-up/drop-off at nearby hotel instead of airport. this turned out to be convenient and straight forward. Given a recent negative rental experience with another company, the terms and ease of doing business was appreciated. The mini-van we rented was in good condition and fit our 6 plus luggage.6,0 Okay
