Car was in great condition. Vinh was very responsive. Smooth transaction all around. Would rent from them again.
The entire experience was a joy! It was a great ride and Ben was an excellant host!
Great communication & flexibility! Needed some assistance without pickup and return and Mike was a breeze to communicate and work with! Thanks again!
Renting John's Model S was a great experience all around. He takes good care of the car and he made sure it was all charged up and ready to go when we arrived. The Turo valet lot was very convenient for pick up and drop off from SFO. My experience couldn't have been better. Thanks, John!
Great Car! Drives great and good on gas. Comfortable and well maintained. Loved driving it and the owner was great/easy to work with. Answered all my calls and was prompt. Would highly recommend this car. Easiest way to rent a car. Thanks!
Loved the experience! The car is super practical and easy to drive. Tip: use the transmission in manual mode and the car becomes a incredibly fun car to drive!
Everything was great! Mark was perfect to coordinate with, and the car was excellent!
The owner is very friendly and helpful! The car is amazing, very new and clean!
It was my first time using Turo, and I'm glad I did. Steve's BMW 128i made my trip much more enjoyable driving a fun stick-shift car rather than some basic economy rental car. I'll definitely be using this again when I fly through SFO.
Great car. Absolute blast to drive. Franklin was excellent to deal with. Will definitely rent from him again.
Amazing host. I had a very late night pick up and the host went above and beyond to accommodate my schedule. Pick up is extremely convenient as is return. The car is remote unlocked and locked which helps in case you’re not sure what time exactly you will arrive. I had to extend and it was very easy. In addition, the car was clean and the rate is very reasonable. I will recommend this host to family and friends.
Everything was great and fast! Our flight was early so we had to call Dan in the morning but he answered all the questions I had. Thank you so much for everything. 100% recommended
I don’t usually rent Smart cars but I didn’t have too much stuff to lug around and the price was right. You can’t beat it for parking either. Chris was super accommodating when I needed to change my pickup location and I would definitely rent from him again.
Great clean car! Easy pick up and return with great communication. Hope to rent again soon!
The car is absolutely thrilling to drive, and was in exceptional shape. In addition, Davy was amazing to communicate with and and tremendously helpful along the way. 10/10 would rent from him again!
Great first-time experience with Turo, and Populous did not disappoint. Communication was easy and the GTI was fun to drive, if a little noisy. (It is a sport vehicle with 125k miles on it, after all.) The car was an 'airport' rental and the Turo Valet Lot option worked out just fine. (Uber to the off-site lot, pick up the car, return it to the lot, and get a free ride back to the airport.) I will definitely use Turo again, and wouldn't hesitate to use Populous again, should my travels bring back to the San Francisco area.
Clark was fantastic - excellent communication and service. The car had a minor lock issue and he drove to downtown SF to swap it for another (even cooler) car. The car was great too - plenty quick with a great soundtrack. Thanks again!
She is the best so far in turo!! She was super nice and communicative!! and she responds quickly and very responsible!! would rent again her cars😍
Mike was super responsive, flexible and accommodating throughout the reservation. A pleasure to deal with!
Quang’s car is an awesome little surprise! It is more roomy (leg room)than normal size cars. Plenty of space for a lot of luggage in the backseat. It is easy to drive. Quang was super helpful with drop off and pick up. Definitely recommend his car!
This was hands down one of the most seamless experiences I’ve ever had on a car sharing platform! Kodz was responsive, instructions were thorough yet simple, car was exactly as described, and exactly where it was suppose to be. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience, let alone a last minute one. Will be renting again! 🤙🏽 PS: It might have just not been in there during my time, so maybe ask if this is important to ya, otherwise, make sure to bring your own auxiliary cord if you plan to drive somewhat of a distance, and want play your own music or your favorite podcast #roadtripsurvivaltips lol.
David car was fun to use for the day. The size was perfect for finding parking and the gas mileage was great! Definitely choose this car if in the area!
Clark is well prepared and the car ran faultlessly. We were snowed in at Kirkwood and had to change our return date. Clark was understanding and we arranged a new drop off. The BMW530x started first go after being buried in the snow for 5 days. It handled the snow covered roads easily. Confidence inspiring drive in difficult conditions.
Very very helpful! Love the Golf R! Cannot wait to drive it again! Tony is so easy to deal with.
Luis is an amazing host! Our flight was delayed and we couldn’t make it in on time before the Turo valet lot closed. Luis was very accommodating and personally delivered the car to us curb side at the airport. The car was also just washed and detailed inside and out! He clearly takes great pride in his vehicle and his customer service is second to none. Thank you!
Michael was amazing! Smooth pickup even at 4AM and easy return. The car is just great, comfy, fast, agile.
Amazing service, great communication, super convenient pick up at the terminal, fun little car... just a perfect experience 10/10.
Pick up and drop off was smooth. Car is in great shape, clean, and fun to drive. Would definitely recommend renting this car from Huan. Friendly guy and great communication!
Nice car, easy to pick up and return ! Thanks, Quinn.
Very pleased with Bart’s communication and flexibility. Car was clean and smooth. I had a great time. Thanks!
Easy to communicate, great Turo host. Car was above expectation, would rent from again. Thanks!
Had fun driving Zach's Smart Fortwo. First time in one of those and it was nice to find parking so easily upon return! It had a lot of pep. I used this for an overnight business trip and appreciated that I could pick up and drop off outside of "business hours." Zach has very detailed instructions and info for the car, and was accommodating of my requests to change the reservation times.
The car’s very nice and clean, also Nikola was very attentive! Always got the promp reply from him diring the rental. i’ll be return for sure, Thank you Nikola!
Car was great! Micheal was super helpful and communicative!
The car is absolutely amazing! It’s impossible to not look at. It’s a compact torpedo - the engine sound is like music for enthusiastics. The communication with Tony was easy, he helps a lot (he left the car at the airport for me, which was a big help!). Pretty easy to leave the car and was one of the most amazing experiences I had in USA. Do u want an awesome car that everyone will look at and it’s amazing to drive? You found it.
This is the 3rd time I’ve used the app. Both Nikola and Turo were super helpful!
Max was great! Quick pickup, drop off, and fantastic instructions on the car. Would rent again in a heartbeat
The smart car is where it’s at - park that little toy anywhere! Nikola was again, very pleasant to work with, prompt in communication, and very helpful.
Nikolai was super easy to connect with, provided easy access to his sweet ride, and helpful on the return as well. Perfect sporty BMW for my ride down to SV and over to Half Moon Bay. Will be driving it every time I’m in SF!
Malcolm is a great host and the car experience was awesome! I drove down highway 1 to Pebble Beach and I will highly recommend this route if you are looking for a getaway from the city!
Nikola is a great communicator. The car is a breeze, drives sweet, economical, parking easy. Look forward to renting again.
Sathwik was amazing Very prompt in communication and his car is awesome
Andrew’s car was a great rental experience. Will do it all over again! I saved so much on gas on this Prius car. Thank u Andrew! :-) His drop off location is only 10mins away from SFO. He is such a wonderful owner.
From start to finish the reservation went very smooth. Car was easy to find, clean, and reliable for my uses. When I needed to extend Nikola was very helpful in explaining how to request. I would highly recommend renting from Nikola. Thank you!
Awesome experience. Kevin was very curtesious . Amazing ride. Excellent communication
Prime example of functionality and fun. The Golf R is a perfect vehicle for tooling around the city and offering a spirited drive on California’s amazing roads. Tony was a pleasure to deal with and very responsive.
This, being my first time using Turo, has been an awesome experience. The whole process is seamless with very clear communication. Janet is very friendly and provided very efficient instructions which made the renting process very easy for a first time Turo customer. I will definitely rent from Janet again. Thanks!
Perfect deal if you want to rent a great 911 in San Francisco downtown. Top flexibility (24/7 pick up and return). Jeremy is available for you at anytime and has set very helpful infos to make your trip convenient. 👍🏻
Chris was absolutely terrific—perfect car, splendid communication, great trip! Thank you so much!
The car was perfect for a quick solo getaway. I highly reccomend!
It was wonderful experience. Clean, convenient, accommodating and super easy to coordinate and lease from. We were in town for work and extended an extra day to see some sights. We will be back and look forward to renting from Chris again.
This was a top notch Turo experience. Mario was professional, punctual and flexible. His car is low mileage (34k), well maintained and loaded with great features via the Grand Touring package. Plus the Miata - oh what a DREAM of a car to have for exploring the greater SF area!! Hands down the best Turo experience I've had, keep up the great work Mario! -Sean & Jackie
Dan was great. Exceedingly responsive, answered all our questions promptly. Car was clean and well-maintained. Highly recommend! :-)
Car as described and pickup seamless at Valet lot. Will continue to rent with Jeff!
Tom was great and easy to coordinate with! Very helpful.
Car was as desribed and remote unlock for me made the handoff process very easy. Thank you Tony!
Very easy to deal with. Very nice. Car is simple and perfect.
Kevin was easy to deal with. The 328i was a nice drive for SF. Fuel efficient and packs a punch. Love the red interior. Will rent from him again.
The pick up and return process was very easy. This is my first Turo experience and was great. Fun car to drive in a beautiful weather.
Eugene was a pleasure to deal with and has made the whole process seamless. Thanks Eugene!
Bartek was great to deal with, very responsive and accommodating. Pick up and drop off was a breeze, very easy. The Tesla was one of the highlight of the trip! I would rent again from Bartek.
Jiayue made everything so easy! Her car is beautiful, luxurious, and well-maintained. She’s very kind and quick to reply to your needs. I’d recommend Jiayue to anyone. Thanks Jiayue!
Thank you again Michael. Great car. Will reach out again next time in SF!
Juano was prompt, professional, and extremely helpful. I’d rent from him again for sure.
Fantastic car for a trip in the mountains. Powerful four-wheel action combined with a modern infotainment system that pairs wonderfully with an iPhone. Built in navigation also a big plus for those areas of low internet coverage. Saved my friends who got stuck in the snow in Tahoe! 10/10
This was my first time using Turo, as well as my first time renting with CJ. Despite a few hiccups on my end (poor data), CJ was accommodating and understanding. He was responsive and worked with my gf to quickly check us in and get us on our way. Overall, this was a great experience, despite some technical difficulties.
Once again, Nikola came through easily. Car was a bit older, but served it's purpose. Thanks
Great experience renting Alan’s Porsche. Amazing car to drive, and Alan was really easy to work with and responsive. Will definitely rent from Alan again next time I visit. Thank you!
Great car! I will be renting it again in the future. Owner makes the entire process easy!
Precise, clean, prompt, informative! How can I say more. Everything went just as planned. James is phenomenal great to work with.
Dan is the perfect example of the best person to rent from. He was extremely professional and kind, and was able to accommodate us with a last second rental when the weather got bad and my flight was canceled. He was very quick to respond and was able make everything work so smoothly for me. His Tesla is amazing to drive and so comfortable and convenient with all of its features. I would highly recommend renting from Dan and would happily rent from him again!
Pick up and drop off was very straight forward. Car is in great condition. Would def rent the same car again.
