We hired a car for 3 days and were able to add an extra day on last minute. Kelly was really friendly and helpful. Much better than hiring from a faceless corporation at the airport!

The guys were waiting at the airport for us and we followed them back to our apartment. No waiting around at all.

Steve R.

Kelly was very helpful and even came back a few days later for us to drop off a child booster seat, as I forgot to bring one.
