Mercedes Benz A Class
July 12, 2024

Pros: Easy check-in/out. There was a long queue waiting for rental cars at Edinburgh Airport. Returning the car was fast.
United States of America (USA)
Ford Focus
July 10, 2024

Pros: They had a card with various shapes and sizes on it and explained that we would only be charged for certain damages if they were larger than the specifics of the card. Different areas of the car corresponded to different shapes or sizes on the card. It was very helpful to have a visual and reassuring when learning to drive on the other side of the road. They provided roadside service in their basic rental prices. Staff was wonderful to deal with!

June 28, 2024

Pros: Excellent help from the two Edinburgh University students. Katriona on dropping off and the male student who sorted out a replacement car when we identified a rapidly deflating tyre.

Cons: The need to stand in the freezing cold at the Alamo kiosk with thirty or more others waiting for their vehicles. All well and good to check people at the main area, but to send them out to stand in the cold with a Northerly wind blowing is not right.

Pros: Alamo’s staff and selection of cars were great.

Cons: I had to wait quite a while, about 1.5-2 hours, so collect my car. I think because it was the week before a bank holiday weekend maybe? The staff were great though, poor things were trying so hard, there were just too many people and it wasn’t ideal the company put them in that position.
