Jenn was very responsive, car drove great. Definitely helped having a luxury SUV. We drove in a different car and truck but BMW was way better for the extra bumpy roads in St. John’s.

Nick was easy to rent from, he was laid back and popped out for both pickup and drop off. The car worked solid for our 5 days of bouncing around Newfoundland. It is a hatchback which can be hard to decipher from the photos - the host is upfront about it where he can mention since car descriptions are no longer available prior to booking. Solid option to book with. Pickup is about a 25 minute drive from downtown St Johns and is easy to get an Uber to and from.
