Recent reviews
Great car, very convenient pick up location, and a really helpful host. Thanks very much, Roberto.
The car quality was top-notch.. Just what you would expect - when hiring a premium car. The pickup location was rather easy for me to access. The host was the G.O.A.T.. I have used other hosts on Turo.. But she clearly stands out. She was courteous when we needed her help with hiring the car & most especially when returning the car. She was also very well informed about how Turo works. Can’t recommend her enough.. Plan to use her service more - in the future. If I could award her “6 stars”, I would; cos of the very outstanding hospitality displayed by the host..
The host was excellent. Very helpful, professional and communicative. The car was very well looked after and in excellent condition. Highly recommended.
Great host! Roberto was super friendly and helpful. Easy pick up and drop off. The car was immaculate, very clean. I’ll definitely be booking again. The car is amazing and the colour really works. All the eyes will drawn to you when you’re on the road.
