The car drove amazing and the host was awesome. Communicated everything before and during. Will be a returning user.
Very kind people. When I picked up the car I met the young man whose father runs the business, and he's clearly been taught professionalism well. The owner himself was very gracious when I returned the vehicle, and the car itself was very clean and operated as one would expect for the price.
