Great rental and fantastic communication all the way through! I ran into some traffic on the way back and the host was great about the 30 minute grace period so that I wasn't in a rush. Car was a smooth ride and although the brakes were a little bit loud they worked perfectly. Thank you so much again and I look forward to renting from y'all in the future!
