Everything about this TURO rental was solid…the car, price, and service! Great people to rent a car from…thank you!
We took a trip to NJ to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary and this car rental was by far the best one we have gotten. You will not be disappointed. It was clean. And the owner was just amazing.
Drop-off coordination and general communication by the host was top notch. The car performed perfectly, save for a tired windshield wiper. This was our first trip using Turo and it gave us great confidence to use it for future trips. Definitely a better experience than using corporate rent-a-car companies.
All perfect, we had problems with the regular car rental companies, due to price and credit card requirements, booked through Turo Youseff was great quickly responded and delivered the car within an hour to the airport.
Amazing experience from start to finish! The host was friendly, responsive, and made the entire rental process quick and easy. The vehicle was amazing, clean, comfortable, well maintained, and drove perfectly. Head turner! I would definitely rent from them again and highly recommend them!
Excellent host and an amazing Mustang! The car was clean, drove perfectly, and the entire rental process was seamless. Richard was responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend!
The location was out the way but the price was better than everywhere else, car in good order, and most importantly the owner was good to deal with. Would use again.
Amazing customer service from the SKRT team! They made the entire rental process completely stress-free and were incredibly accommodating when it came to communication and flexibility. Will definitely rent from them again!
Outstanding service as always ! Excellent communication, I wouldn’t go with any other company for car rental.
I’ve rented almost all of Alex’s cars, and every experience has been top-notch! Alex is truly the best of the best—always providing excellent service, fast responses, and a smooth rental process. This time, I had the pleasure of driving the 2021 Hyundai Sonata, and it was an absolute dream! I also used the pickup service, which was super convenient and made my trip even better. If you’re looking for a reliable, professional, and friendly host, Alex is the one. Thank you again, Alex! Looking forward to my next rental. Sincerely TDD
I’m very honored to have been Kashyap’s first renter. He deep cleaned his car which was the very first time I’ve gotten this type of service on a Turo rental, after various prior experiences. Provided bottled water and various chargers which were useful during my trip. Don’t hesitate to rent with Kashyap!! Would definitely rent again.
Pickup was easy host accommodated a later pickup , car was so much fun fully autonomous driving literally just enter an address then go .
Host was very accommodating, I Got early for my pick up time and he did not charge extra. The car was good and I did not have any problems.
Excellent car condition, great price, great communication and easy to work with. Thank you very much!
Erlis (and his wife) was a great host. Communication and timeliness was consistent and reasonable. Erlis helped tremendously with an issue I was having and went above and beyond as a host to assure the issue was resolved. The Audi A3 was at a great price and drove very smoothly and the maitenance was up to date. Although I had just a one day reservation, I enjoyed the vehicle and the hosts. I would recommend to others to get the experience of a nice vehicle and great hosts. Hopefully, I will be a repeat customer.
Thank you! The host had great communication throughout the entire car rental process—everything was smooth and easy. Highly recommend!
