Pros: The rental was same as what I booked.
Cons: The after-hour drop off service was unaccceptable. I was told there would be shuttle bus service to airport at the time I booked early drop off and got charged $50. Few days before the drop off I was told there would be no shuttle bus but I could claim taxi fee upon submission of receipt for an maximum amount of $30. I have 4 passengers and 5 pieces of luggages, a small car was definitely not big enough, not to mention there was doubt I could get taxi at the remote Mode depot to airport timely
Pros: Great service easy pick nice staff
Cons: Nothing
Pros: Fast pick up and car was nice
Cons: We needed to drop off the car 13 days before due to a family emergency and could not receive a refund
Pros: Friendly, professional and helpful
Pros: Friendly and helpful staff, quick pick-up and drop-off.
