Maksud was a great host and made the entire rental process easy and seamless. The car was clean, reliable, and exactly as described. Communication was quick and straightforward, and both pickup and drop-off were hassle-free. We had a great experience and would definitely rent from Maksud again. Highly recommend!
We had an excellent experience renting through Turo from Jaber. He was friendly, accommodating, punctual, and always willing to answer any questions we had before and during our trip. Communication was easy and prompt, which made the entire rental process stress-free. The car itself was reliable, comfortable to drive, and had excellent gas mileage, making it a great choice for our travels. Everything was exactly as described, and the vehicle was clean and well maintained. We would not hesitate to rent from Jaber again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable vehicle and outstanding customer service.
This was my first experience with TURO , and I could not have asked for a better way to start. Stanley was great to deal with - he quickly responded to messages, was prompt and willing to adapt to changing circumstances. The pickup/drop off location worked well (there is a gas station nearby for easy refueling at the end of the trip), and the car was immaculate. I would gladly rent from Stanley again.
Absolutely the best car on the app and an amazing experience to have for our honeymoon. The car was in excellent condition when I received it, and the host was incredibly accommodating with both pickup and drop-off. It was the perfect car for driving the Cabot Trail and, honestly, was pretty decent on gas considering what it is. I was just so happy to be able to experience the Cabot Trail in something like this rather than one of the typical rental options. The exhaust is perfect — loud enough to enjoy without ever being obnoxious, with a playful burble that adds to the experience without being excessive. It made every scenic stretch of road that much more fun. For anyone wondering about luggage space, we had a carry-on suitcase, a large 65L travel backpack, and two regular backpacks, and everything fit nicely in the trunk with a little room left over for a case of water. Overall, I really can’t recommend this car enough. It was genuinely the perfect car for the journey and made an already incredible honeymoon road trip that much more memorable.
The car is clean and conditions are super good. Driving so smoothly. Nice trip with this car. Fully recommend.
