The 8 passenger van was picked up at a good and of ease location, and instructions given by the host made it easy to start the rental process once arriving to the van. The van was clean and full of fuel. No problems with the vehicle during the trip. The roominess in the vehicle was great for a big family road trip with a lot of trunk space. The host(s) were great with communication and response time with any messages to them. Would recommend using this host to family and friends.
