June 25, 2023

Pros: great price, helpful staff, great car (new hybrid in the lowest category!)

Cons: huge note: pickup is from a big roundabout about 5 minutes from the airport, where you have to walk up and wait on the roads (no sidewalks, not marked and we got to know that only after landing). then a shuttle runs about each 10min, but only takes 6-8 people, so you might have to wait a long time. after that it's a 5min drive and then everything goes very well, but if you're travelling with children/lots of baggage the pickup will be very hard
