Kia Forte 2021

Great car with no problems. Great communication with the owners. The spot for the car pickup was a bit unclear; we had a bit of a hard time finding the location with the address given using Google Maps (maybe some photos or coordinates for the location would help), but due to the quick communication, we were able to find it quickly. Given the good price compared to other options in the area, would definitely recommend this and even rent it myself again.

Kia was just as represented. Was easy to drive and had great truck space. Seats had seat covers on them to protect them which were comfortable. Easy pick up at OGG airport with excellent communication from Valerie of where she parked it. Returning car, we parked at OGG and texted Valerie location. Super convenient.

Car is clean, easy to get around the island, good on gas and we had zero issues with it. Only advice is to bring a phone vent holder, or something similar as there isn't one. I would rent this car again.
