No issues. This was easy to do, less expensive than standard car rental company, did require an uber to get to and from the car, so add in $80 total for that RT with tips.

Renting in Syracuse doesn't have to be complicated. Before you buckle up and set off across town, here are a few tips for driving, parking, and getting by while you're in Syracuse.
Driving in Syracuse is generally straightforward, though a few otherwise well-maintained roads can be rough in spots. The low default speed limit of 30 mph helps keep things calm, but watch for reduced speeds in pedestrian areas and around major attractions.
Winter calls for extra caution, so look for a car with snow tires when you rent in Syracuse. Drive slowly, leave extra space from the car ahead, and remember that bridges freeze faster than the main roads.
Street parking is metered from 9 am to 6 pm Monday through Saturday. Parking is free on Sundays and evenings, but a bustling nightlife means spots are competitive. You can pay at the meter or through your phone.
If you're staying in Syracuse for an extended period, consider a monthly parking permit. Most garages and lots in the downtown area offer them, even if you're not a resident.
Yes. The New York State Thruway, which passes through Syracuse, uses cashless tolling, so there's nothing to pay at a booth as you drive. Costs vary depending on where you enter and exit.
Need to refuel before an evening out? Plenty of options await no matter where you're staying in Syracuse. You'll find familiar names along I-690, including Sunoco, Speedway, Kwik Fill, and Circle K.
Driving an electric car? You've got options, too. EVolve NY, Tesla Supercharger, and Electrify America all maintain locations throughout the heart of Syracuse, making it easy to recharge wherever you are.
Though the downtown area is easily walkable, a rental car is the best way to see everything Syracuse has to offer. Many top attractions, like the wineries of the Finger Lakes and Watkins Glen State Park, are an hour's drive or more from the city center.
The cost of a car rental in Syracuse varies with car type, trip length, extras, and delivery. For the best value, look for discounts on longer bookings and reserve early, and compare a range of vehicle types before you book.
