The best rental I've had in a while on here. I will definitely be renting from him again. Great experience. 10/10
I had a great experience renting this 2012 Nissan Versa. The car was very clean, drove smoothly, and was surprisingly great on gas. Everything worked as expected, making it a reliable and hassle-free rental. What really stood out was the host’s kindness and generosity. After I returned the car, he offered me and my 2-year-old son a ride home. I was carrying quite a few things, including a stroller and car seat, so this gesture was incredibly helpful and greatly appreciated. Excellent service, a well-maintained vehicle, and a genuinely thoughtful host. I would definitely book again and highly recommend renting from him!
