Eric and Valerie have made it impossible for me to ever rent from one of the big international car rental companies again. This was my third rental with them and they are everything the big guys are not. They are friendly, efficient, customer focused are most importantly really easy to deal with. Their cars are great as well.
The host, the car, and the whole Turo experience was 10/10. The price was fantastic and the whole experience was seamless. We had weird hours we wanted to leave and return the car that would not have worked with a car rental agency, but Angel and Turo made the whole process easy and seamless. I’m a bigger guy so I was worried about how comfortable the car would be and it was perfect. The great ride made our whole vacation possible and comfortable. I really appreciated the vehicles safety features too!
The Nissan Altima was great. Good mpg, clean, lots of power, great response time. The car needed to be picked up at an off site location called, economy car rental at 2367 India street. A proximity 2 1/2 miles from the airport. You will need to find a ride to their location. The price of taxi will be $30, however we took the free shuttle to the car rental center then walked 20 minutes the rest of the way. The team at this location did a great job, fast, friendly, polite, and after returning they able to offer a ride back to the airport. We would rent this Altima again, and I would recommend this vehicle.

Easy pick up and drop off. Car was very clean inside. A/C blows super cold even when it's 100 degrees out!! The windows are not tinted so I suggest bringing your own sun shades if you are going to be parked anywhere but the shade in the summer. Luckily I had those and that made my trip much better. The flip down visors do have the extenders to help block sun while driving thankfully. Charging prices are comparable to current gas prices - about $45 to get 250 miles of charge over a few sessions which is the same as I get from a full tank in my Toyota Yaris. This car DOES have the CHAdeMO fast charge input so it's 30-50 seconds per mile to charge depending on the fast charger & whether you're running the car (AC/radio) or it's fully off. Radio speakers were a little blown out so I had to adjust some settings to listen to my audiobooks but it was easy to do. I had no problem driving from the pickup spot to Kyle, then to the airport, and back into town without needing a charge which was about 90 miles, mostly highway. Just like any Turo rental make sure to take your own photos at pickup and drop off since scratches and such aren't usually documented after every drive by the car owners which seems standard in my experience. Overall a great deal, best price in town especially for a last minute rental. I requested the rental at 9pm on a Tuesday after my personal car died and was able to get this the next morning with no issue. Will definitely keep them in mind when I need a rental near by. Thanks again!

First, I contemplated leaving a 4 star review for a few reasons. However, the prompt response to the issue with the original vehicle reserved, partly due to luck that someone happened to be onsite with the car, and the flexibility with returning the vehicle without requiring washing and vacuuming is deserving of some grace. The price for 5 day/4 night rental was fantastic, around $150 total. I certainly didn't expect a car in pristine shape for the cost. This car is a part of a Turo "rental company" fleet. It seems like a company that buys cheap, used cars to rent out. There are 12-15 cars parked behind a strip mall 8-10ish minutes from the airport in an area I was glad we were picking up and dropping off midday rather than the evening. The hybrid we originally reserved had stained seats and a lot of cosmetic wear. One tire looked like it was on a spare wheel and didn't have a lot of life left, honestly. A lot of the roads in San Diego aren't exactly in great shape, I was concerned about getting a flat. When we turned the car on to leave we immediately got check engine lights and a "pull over immediately" message. Fortunately, someone with the "rental company" was on site and qas able to quickly switched cars for us. It wasn't a hybrid, though. We didn't plan on a lot of driving, but originally opted for a hybrid to save money since we had two days of freeway driving. We definitely spent more on gas then originally planned. If there wasn't someone available onsite to help, it could have been a much longer ordeal which is a terrible way to start a vacation. Communication day of pick up felt slow with the owner. I didn't think to look back to the 2 month old message about how to find the car. I received a message from Turo saying we'd be sent details the day before the trip. I never got that confirmation text or measage the day before or day of pick up from the actual rental owner. When I first reached out to the rental company through the turo app to find the car at pick up time, I didn't get a response. I finally found a way to text someone about 20 minutes later. We did get a pretty quick response that way, but it's frustrating to be in a random parking lot messaging through an app and not get a response. The Honda interior is definitely cleaner than the hybrid we reserved, but the exterior, not so much. Its been side swiped and has a lot of sun damage. The TPMS light was on the whole time, but the actual tire pressure was fine. There was also a rattle and grinding noise when accelerating from a stop or on a hill, but it didn't cause an issue. The car drives fine for a 14-15 year old car, it's just a little noisy and you feel all the bumps on the road. I understand with the cheaper cost of renting through Turo amd choosing a 12-15 year old car, I'm not getting a newer car like I would with a standard rental company or paying more for a newer car. That said, with my last few Turo rentals, it feels a lot of these Turo "rental companies" aren't checking their cars or doing much more than standard maintenance as frequently as they should when they have over 150,000 miles on them. The confirmation message also suggested the cars are kept in great shape. These cars were not in great shape by any stretch of the imagination. No one wants to be on vacation and have their car break down or even be worried that the car they're driving is gonna get a flat or break down.

I love the rental cars from Mohammed. He and his staff is friendly and helpful. The cars are small and good at gas. I would suggest anyone to rent a car with Mohammed.

I had an excellent experience renting from this host and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and smooth car rental experience. The vehicle was extremely clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. Communication was outstanding from start to finish. The host was friendly, professional, responsive, and made both pickup and drop-off incredibly easy and convenient. The car drove perfectly and made my trip stress-free and enjoyable. It’s clear the host takes great care of both their vehicles and their customers. I truly appreciated the attention to detail and overall professionalism throughout the rental process. I would absolutely rent from this host again in the future and highly recommend them to others looking for a top-quality rental experience.

The host was excellent throughout the whole process. Communication was very good, he was friendly and easy to deal with, and he made the whole car rental process simple and stress-free. Everything was straightforward from start to finish, and I would definitely rent from him again.

Easy pickup and drop off, saved us when the car rental companies ran out of cars at the airport.

Andre was great, the car was somewhat still dirty, dust, dirt, what appeared to be cigarette ashes, animal hair, sticky spills around the cup holders in the center console and the door panels. Crumbs and dust/dirt left in the door handles and cubby's. In the center console cup holders and cubbys. On the top of the dashboard, around the steering column and gauges. Sticky dusty windows and stereo buttons. Rear view mirror had sticky smudges on it. All the windows inside were dusty and dirty with smudges and idk what really.. the car had a bad smell of animals like dogs, and faint cigarette smell.. however as I got further into my trip I got used to it and wasn't bothered by it anymore. A lot of these issues honestly didn't bother me very much. I was more worried of being blamed for them when I returned the car. Unfortunately I was put behind schedule due to a passenger side headlight and passenger side tail light being burned out. However upon informing andre, he was very quick with a solution to take the car to valvoline where they were able to repair the lights before I left for my trip. If I wasn't already running late It wouldn't of bothered me. Andre was also very quick to reimburse me the whole price of the repairs immediately upon me sending him the receipt of the work.. I very much appreciated that! I also appreciate that instead of canceling my trip Andre worked out a way to have the lights fixed with no trouble of my own. He was always quick to respond to all of my very long messages full of questions. This is my first time using turo and I did not know the ins and outs of the rental process. He was able to guide me threw every step all while being polite and keeping his patience with me! Hah. I ended up running behind schedule on my way back as well and was surprised how simple and easy it was to change the return time from noon to after 9 p.m. all without adding any fees to my bill! That was very helpful of andre to allow me to do. I also ended up being a little passed my return time due to vacuuming the car and dusting everything to my best ability. So that andre wouldn't have to deal with someone else's mess and the next person who rents the vehicle will not have to worry about it either. I had no issues with doing that for him after he was so helpful with me! The vehicle was a little different then what im used to. But in no time I settled in with the car and had a very enjoyable trip! I would forsure rent another vehicle from andre in the future due to how well he accommodated me on this trip. Even tho the car had the mess, that was not andre, But left over from previous renters. He even made sure to have a snow brush and ice scraper in the car for me. But unfortunately the previous renters also took that with them. Im sure there will be a new one for the next person who rents the car because thats how much andre cares about his customers !! 5 stars for andre !!! Whoever returned his vehicle like that should be ashamed and think about how it would feel if someone treated your things the same way! Once again THANK YOU andre! I will reach out to you next time I need to rent a car.. I appreciate all your help thru the process! I appreciate your professionalism and quick responses to all my questions and thank you for making sure the vehicle was 100% good to go for me before I left and wouldn't of been able to fix it. 5 of 5 stars for andre !!

My credit card wasn’t working for some odd reason and rental companies wouldn’t let me rent a car so I booked this Turo last minute and it was a reasonable price for five days. I will do it again when I come back to Vancouver in August.
Excellent 1st experience using Turo. The host was very responsive and timely. The vehicle was in great condition and rode very well. The price was a good deal and would definitely use this again as opposed to a major car rental facility. It was a simple process overall and very straightforward.
Highly recommend! First of all Rigid was very helpful from the beginning. I wasn’t exactly sure what days I would be arriving at GSO so I had to keep rescheduling the rental, but Rigid was very understanding and willing to work with me! Very well communicated from making the reservation to returning the car. Very easy pickup, the car was dropped off right outside the arrival level, so no long walk to the parking lot or rental car center etc. Clean car with good mpg! Will definitely rent again next time I coming through GSO airport!
Kiara had great communication throughout the rental process , the car was amazing , clean and comfortable. Rental was a great price as well. I'll be happy to rent from Kiara again in the future.

The host, Tadeh was exceptional. The very best in customer service. I had the best experience with renting from Tadeh. Everything was so easy; Tadeh was super accommodating, very kind, he went way above and beyond what I reasonably expected. Tadeh is a thousand times better than AVIS, HERTZ, Enterprise, Thrifty, Budget, Dollar, and all the major car rental. Tadeh gave me the best deal; the major car rentals do not come close; I saved a lot of money. The car was great, very good on the gas mileage; and very clean. Tadeh made sure pick-up location was very convenient for me, Tadeh drove the car to where I was; it’s the best. Tadeh also picked up the car when I was done and again made sure it was convenient for me. I am very grateful for this. Once I return from my deployment, absolutely renting from Tadeh again; will be telling all my friends and colleagues. This is just amazing customer service. I am very appreciative for everything. THANK YOU

Good Morning 🌞 Yall! This Car was Amazing! I was able to go see my older Son's College Graduation during the week. The Car rental process was amazing and an easy process. I would definitely rent this Car again!!
A great car and definitely attentive host. I really appreciate that- Leon was great. So glad I went this route to rent a car vs going to a commercial car rental place. So much more personable. Would definitely recommend working with Leon!
Rent a car and explore Crete, IL
Crete may be a small town, but that doesn't mean there's a shortage of things to do. From exploring nature to sampling spirits, Crete combines village charm with Chicago attitude to give people of all ages a great time. Here are some attractions you may want to take a look at.
Rent the perfect car
Visit Crete any time of year and you can experience the Goodenow Grove Nature Preserve. Spread over 891 acres (with some of that space designated as an official Illinois Nature Preserve), the grounds feature more than two miles of trails and nine campgrounds. Plum Creek Nature Center offers gorgeous observation areas, multiple exhibits, a playscape for little ones, a gift shop, and many fun events. Heading to Crete in the snow? Get skiing, snowshoeing, and sledding in the preserve—sledding starts December 1!
For a taste of the finer side, take a gander at Thornton Distilling. Operating out of the oldest distillery still standing in Illinois today, Thornton features a bar and restaurant, along with tasting tours. See this repaired 1857 original while sampling some Chicago spirits for an amazing night. The team also hosts seasonal events, like the Monster Mash Summer Bash Market, so there's always something new to experience.
To really get a taste of small-town charm, explore downtown Crete. This quaint area features a collection of places to check out. Grab a drink and a bite at Evil Horse Brewing Co. and freshen up at A Little R&R Salon. Snag some caffeine at Edge Coffee House, then explore the local shops to discover what Crete has to offer.

Between Crete itself and the greater Chicago area, there's plenty to do no matter your age or interests. Forget worrying about a normal rental company and book directly on Turo. Take in the small-town Crete vibes before heading on up for a grand Chicago adventure, or make your way a little further out to see more of Illinois and Indiana.
Moving to Crete from across the country or even just a few miles away? Don't even think about upcharges like you'd see from rental car companies. Instead, find the right rental car at the right price point for you. Get a truck or van to pack away furniture for your move, or snag an SUV to take loved ones to your new home.
Lake Michigan is less than an hour away from Crete, so it's a fantastic destination for recreation—and a great reason to book a car rental. Whether you want to relax while boating on the lake itself or attend any of the events nearby, a rental car grants you access to everything you can think of.

Your instinct might be to fly into O'Hare Airport, but why not opt for Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW)? It's closer to Crete than O'Hare. Head straight past the airport car rental counter and pick up your vehicle to find yourself just a moment away from comfy small-town charm.
Find a rental car you can pick up in downtown Chicago and make an adventure out of your day. Land early and catch the Blue Line from O'Hare or find a rideshare to make it downtown. Explore downtown Chicago to your heart's content—maybe even stay a night at The Congress Plaza Hotel! Book a rental car in downtown and you can pick it up after your adventure, then head right on down to Crete for some much-needed rest.
East Chicago is a bit of a misnomer; it's technically in Indiana, but that doesn't make it any less authentically Chicago. It sits at the southern end of Lake Michigan, so find a car rental in the area and you'll have access to plenty of fun. Check out the East Chicago Marina, which features restaurants and activities to spend time indoors, along with outdoor excitement like the Annual Fourth of July Celebration on the lakefront. You won't get bored, but on the off chance you do, hop back into that rental car and discover more that Crete and the rest of Chicago have to offer.

Airport pickup made easy
Next time you fly, don’t wait in line and fill out forms — pick your car up at hundreds of popular airports.
Convenient pickup & return
Rather than hustling at the busy terminal curbside, take your time picking up the car at approved parking lots or garages. Check in, load up your luggage, and get comfortable with the car without a big rush.
No lines, no paperwork
Skip the rental car counter at hundreds of popular airports without waiting in line or filling out paperwork. Find and pick up the car with the app and hit the road in no time.
Free cancellation
Cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts, unless you opt to receive a non-refundable trip discount when you book. Because life happens and it helps to be flexible when it does.

Pickup near or at Airports
With Turo, you can avoid the hassle of car rental companies, but that doesn't automatically make for a smooth ride. You never know what the road will throw at you, so here are some tips for renting a car in Crete.
The roads themselves in Crete and the surrounding areas can go from rough to smooth with a single right turn. Since Chicago is such a large city, it can take time to get roads repaved, so you'll want to be on the lookout as you drive. Luckily, in general, driving isn't half bad in Crete—traffic is lighter because it's toward the outskirts of Chicago itself, and many of the roads have speed limits of 30 MPH for safety.
What you have to worry about when it comes to driving in Crete is the weather. The area sees 39 inches of rain per year, so roadways can be slick. If you're visiting during wintertime, you might want to make your rental vehicle an SUV, crossover, or truck; anything with 4WD or AWD will help, as Crete gets 28 inches of snow yearly.
Crete allows street parking as a general rule throughout the village. When events are held, you'll find event parking specifically designated at 1321 Main Street. Just keep in mind that if snow hits two inches or more, street parking is not allowed so that the roads can be plowed.
There's good news and bad news regarding toll roads in Crete. Crete itself doesn't have any. However, once you get up to Chicago, you'll find toll roads along I-80, I-294, and I-355, all over various stretches. You'll want to consult a map and plan accordingly if you plan to head up into the city. A rental car with integrated navigation might be able to help.
Crete only hosts a few gas stations within its limits, and you won't find any EV charging stations within the village. Luckily, as part of the larger Chicago area, Crete has access to both gas and charging stations just up the road.
Renting a car in Crete is definitely advisable. Public transit in Chicago is known to be decent, but a rental car gives you the freedom to see everything, whether it's near transit lines or not.

You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.
