great car, gets amazing MPG with loads of fun. A bit loud on the highway but that’s as expected. Host was easy to deal with and communicate well, will hope to take his cars out for a quick rental again in the future
Lamar's Hyundai has a few minor flaws but is very presentable both inside and out, The car drove well and everything worked as it should. Although it is not a new car it drives like one, the HVAC system worked perfectly and the car appears to be well maintained mechanically. Lamar is a very personable, professional and made my trip/rental easy. My flight arrived almost 30 minutes late and he waited without complaint and promptly arrived at the terminal, loaded my bag in the trunk, went over the return arrangements while I inspected his car and sent me on my way without delay. The car was delivered with a full tank which makes it much easier to return the vehicle properly refueled with out guessing. I will rent from Lamar without any hesitation again and would recommend him to others.
I really can't find anything that was wrong with this car. It was clean, well taken care of and so comfortable. I'm 5'9 and it had plenty of leg space. It was a very comfortable fit for my bad back with a well-positioned headrest, which is hard to find. It drove like a dream. It Actually could've driven itself! The safety features are amazing and so is the handling. I took a trip to oroville, and like i usually do, I put it in cruise control. and i couldn't believe it. The car would slow down for me and even guided me around curves! Yes! Like i said, this car was Amazing. I'm sure i left a lot of features out, but I didn't love it cause it had bells and whistles, I Loved it because of it's Safety Features, Comfort, Cleanliness and it only cost me 23.00 round trip. I want to ad that Mr. Rahman was a very nice gentleman who was easy to talk to and was conscientious enough to wear a mask and he even equipped the car with hand sanitizer and wipes for the trip. He has set the bar high for me and if I need to rent a car again, I will be going to Mr. Rahman first. oh and it was a really classy lookin lil thing for someone who's used to driving a Dodge Ram. lol Sandra Rivera
Israel's Hyundai made my trip very enjoyable. Reliable car, clean with great gas mileage. I recommend this to anyone looking to rent a car. Great communication as well!
Best host I’ve ever worked with! And the car was a dream. I had a few hiccups a long the way on this trip due to poor planning on my part, but Vishan helped me with whatever I needed. It would be hard not to rent this car every time I come to Sacramento.
Mario’s Benz was beyond perfect amazing comfortable ride, with heated seats and just some comfy seats! Looks amazing too! The check in and check out was so simple and smooth it took me less then 10 mins when I landed to get the car and that was my first time in Sacramento. Would def book again
Mario went above and beyond to accommodate every one of my needs, all of his vehicles are taken amazing care of and are exactly as advertised. I wowouldn't hesitate to rent from him at all, one if the best hosts I've had to date. Thanks again MARIO!
Lamar was the best. Had the car detailed before I got there. Car was in great shape. Rode amazingly. Will look forward to the next time I rent from him
Mario had the car dropped off as soon as my feet were on the ground in Sacramento and made the entire process very easy. The car was very clean and smelt great!
Awesome customer service, super clean and quickly responds to you I would recommend anybody rent a car from him😁
Don’t ever rent from the Hertz/Avis/Budget crowd again! Jerome and SacTesla were incredible. “Taya”, our Model 3 will make you want to go out and buy a Tesla right away. I don’t think we’ll ever rent a regular car in Sacramento again. Jerome was awesome and will take care of you every step of the way.
Pavel was great as usual. Cars are always clean and pickup/drop off is convenient. Always my first choice when using Turo
Fresha was great, met me and my daughter at the airport for drop off and pick up. The car was great as well, will rent again when back in CA.
First time using Turo and I just needed something to get me around while my cars in the shop. The corolla got the job done and Khanh was a good host. Overall satisfied.
Great little car. Owner was nice and dropped off for us. Would rent from him again.
Great car for a quick day trip! The host Casey is also super friendly and incredibly helpful.
Josh is super easy to rent from and has superb communication. The car was clean and drives very well. Highly recommend
One of the best rides and customer service thus far will be booking again. Car was clean great handling fast and fun to drive
10 STAR RATING. This was my first time ever driving a Tesla so I was definitely a rookie. I’m pretty sure I asked Jerome 101 questions as I had the car. He answered everyone of them and made my trip that much more fun. Tesla’s are such a different but awesome vehicle but dealing with Jerome is what’s it’s all about. 10 star service as he’s an amazing guy. HIGHLY RECOMMEND going through Jerome to rent your next Tesla. I know I’ll be renting again soon we then later. Maybe I’ll try the SUV next 😁
Very smooth and easy process in unlocking the key out of lockbox that Pavel walked me through. Very decent car. I would definitely do business with Pavel in the future. Very trustworthy and understanding.
Had a great time. Mario was responsive with any questions I had, and the car was fantastic. Definitely recommend!
Simon is a great host. Smoothest process. The car was super clean and a blast to drive. Thank you
I am left without any words. Mario and his team go above and beyond expectations. Despite having complications with another vehicle— Mario went out his way to make sure I was safe and able to keep my scheduled plans. Hands down to phenomenal customer service, attentiveness, and most of all keeping the customer safe. All with a great attitude and understanding. Like I’ve said it before, I will keep recommending Mario and his team to family and friends! They truly care about the customer.
Last minute rented out this vehicle, it was honestly the best rental car experience I’ve had. Mario was very understanding and quick to respond. Definitely recommend renting out Mario’s vehicles.
Simon was great to work with and helped me with anything I needed. The car was in excellent condition fun to drive! This was overall a very nice experience. Thank you Simon!
Greatest car I have ever had the pleasure to drive! Was so sad to have to return...
Mr. Pavel was extremely professional and perfect communication 👏. There was a minor issue with a smokers odor in the vehicle. I am a non smoker so I noticed it right away. I bought some air freshers for my trip. I mentioned it and mr. Pavel offered to refund me for my cost. it was only 2.49 , but he insisted on a receipt and not only refunded me, but offered great customer service in doing so. if I need another trip I will definitely rebook. highly recommend 👌.
Great car, very well maintained and clean. Drop off and pickup were pleasant and easy. Highly recommended host!
Keionne was super professional and communicated amazingly. The car was also awesome. Overall it was a great experience.
Keionne was very helpful and professional the entire time, replied back quickly and the car worked great! No problems at all with the car, def a smooth ride and recommend to anyone
Very easy pick up and drop off. Friendly and took time to show me al the features of the car. A great experience and a really nice ride! Very zippy and the autopilot was incredible. Tesla’s are amazing.
For my first Turo experience I was not sure what to expect. I have rented cars and/or used different styles of ride services before in the past but hands down, Mario Ayala exceeded every expectation I could have ever asked for when it came to my most current business trip! The communication was easy, the car was perfect, and it was almost steal for the agreed rate list on this dream ride! Surely will be telling my friends and family all about my experiences
Great host. Accommodating and very easy to work with. Thorough and on top of things!! The car is immaculate!
Bryson was so great to work with! He definitely made my first experience with Turo seamless and memorable. He even accommodated a last minute request that he didn’t have to and I’m grateful. I’ll definitely be renting from them again in the near future!
This was a really great first experience with Turo. I took a 3 day trip to Santa Cruz and the car rental was amazing. And a very nice host that was able to accommodate things.
First time trying this and it was faster and easier and so much cheaper then all the car rental places. I am for sure letting my friends know about this so they can try it i love it......
Let me just say how exciting and amazing this one day trip was with this baddy was! Was in town to visit a couple high school friends and wanted to show off a bit. Well worth it!! Had so many people ask me about the car and to feel the purr of the engine on the freeway. Ooo!! I officially will be purchasing one soon! Vishan was quick with last minute booking and was able to have it ready at the airport with less than 2 hrs notice. Much appreciated and an amazing host for the first time renting off Turo. Will definitely be doing it again next time I’m in town!
Great rental, clean car, returning was a bit tricky location wise otherwise everything was good!
Very understanding and easy to work with. The owner is very flexible and kind. I suggest you book with him!
Casey is a down to earth guy. Made everything very simple and had no issues whatsoever. Car was amazing and I enjoyed the trip down south. I will be back to rent again. Thanks Casey
Everything is a super plus cleanliness, sanitary and the host is awesome and very easy to work with😁
Fred was extremely detailed in the instructions on what we needed to do. He left the vehicle in an easy to find area and took the time to go through the entirety of the vehicle, teaching us how to use it. He responded immediately when we reached out to him and made us feel so welcomed to the vehicle. Amazing host. Would recommend to anyone needing a rental car. He will be who we contact again in the future.
EXCELLENT RENTAL EXPERIENCE!!!!! Pavel is super responsive and very awesome. The car was a smooth and clean ride. Will definitely rent again and definitely recommend anyone to rent with no issues and an amazing experience.
This car is well maintained and fun to drive. It’s best for local trips. You will get the official range on the highway if you keep it under 65mph. But if you really want to see what an electric car can do, try a Tesla!
Michael was super nice and very easy to work with. Would definitely go with him again.
Pavel is the nicest person. Very clean car, simple and easy process upon picking up vehicle. I will definitely try to rent a car again
Pavel is awesome I would recommend him to all my friends if they need to rent a car he's very nice understanding it was a great experience thanks pavel
I will continue to go through SacRentals as they have by far the best cars, prices, and customer service!
The car was great the renter was great to the battery in the car did go out while we were using it but within 30 min they were there putting a new battery in the car would define rent again
Easy pickup, affordable and Eddie made the trip super nice by reporting all damage to the car prior to departure. It was nothing too bad but I appreciated the honesty.
The car was an absolute blast, and Vishan was very accommodating. Will 100% recommend renting from him!
Great car! Extra clean interior. Fun to drive. Mario’s communication skills were exemplary! Will definitely be renting from him again!
Smooth easy process even worked with me renting his car for another day and dropping it off earlier than scheduled. Thanks again
Great guy, Nice car to travel in. I will be renting through Anthony again soon. Thanks.
I had never been to Sacramento before and Nazar made it a stress free experience. He met me and the exact time and even let me change my time. He also was very responsive with a couple questions I had since this was my first time using Turo. I highly recommend Nazar and Turo over any rental agency. Better price and customer service.
I have rented through Mario before but this time we had a small family emergency and had to leave extremely early in the morning I made a rental reservation for 2 a.m. and was nicely granted such thing I don't know any other rental company or app that you could possibly do that with and then with such polite and gracious people as a host thank you Mario you saved the day
