    From Tripadvisor:

    Wanted to add to the stream of praises. This is an excellent company! They are very quick to respond to emails, and in a pinch, you can call them. I rented a Suzuki Forester 4WD from them. We showed up early in the morning, and walked to their shop from the airport. It is not inside the terminal, but only a very short distance (there are a cluster of car companies right outside the terminal).
    Not sure what to say...the pickup was smooth, we drove around the entire island, dropped off the car at the parking lot after hours, and went home. No problems, no hassles, no surprise charges for non-existent damage, no scams. They are a good, honest company. I would recommend them to anyone.

    From Google reviews:

    We have booked Toyota Rav 4 diesel through the web site. When we arrived to the airport they told us that we will get Ford Kuga gasoline instead. After request they have changed it to Hyundai Tuscon diesel. The car was not new ( with 140000 km already ) and we had one issue with the wheel on the first day. I called the agency and they sent mechanic to handle the issue. The process was quick and professional. Rest of the vacation the car was fine. Return process was fast and easy. Price was very reasonable

    Great service. Drop off was especially great. Car had a door ding and he was able to look up old picture and verify that I didn’t make the ding. He recommended always taking pictures for proof. We then we’re to early for the shuttle to take us to the airport so he offered to give us a ride. Very appreciative! I would recommend this place.

    Easy pick up & drop off. Friendly & efficient staff, good value for money, would definately recommend & will use again on our next visit.
    Only thing to note is that the shuttle bus to & from the car rental area stops at 6pm, which makes for an interesting hike across from the terminal if you're travelling with heavy luggage!

    Was given a car (dacia duster) full of scratches on the outside. Interior was not the cleanest as well. No reverse sensor nor in-vehicle rear camera when reversing. Pick-up over the counter was fast.
