Mediocre|Mar 2023
The car was perfectly fine, exactly as requested. But the pickup and drop off location was extremely difficult to actually find, and the pickup address given on the confirmation directed us to a location that was completely unrelated to the rental car location. In fact, we had to do a block to block search to locate it several streets over from the location given to us. After we found it, the pickup itself went smoothly.
