Steve was an outstanding host! He made the entire rental process incredibly easy from start to finish. His communication was excellent—he responded quickly, answered all of our questions, and made sure we had everything we needed. The van was exactly as described, clean, reliable, and perfect for our trip. We really appreciated how smooth and stress-free Steve made the experience. I would absolutely rent from him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great rental experience!

5/5 Stars – Amazing service! We had an incredible experience using this Turo for our trip. The host went above and beyond for convenience—they literally picked us up right at baggage claim when we arrived, and when it was time to head home, they met us right at departures to take the car back. It completely eliminated the usual airport rental hassle. The car was great, but the seamless pickup and drop-off service made it a 10/10. Strongly recommended!

Jeff and his team were great at communication and offered a lot help whenever we had a question. The car was in great condition and comfortably fit our family of 5, three large suitcases and stroller. Two things to keep in mind: To pick up and drop off the car required taking a 10-15 min shuttle to and from the car. They did a great job explaining how to get there and get into the car, was just a bit of additional travel. One other thing to note is that they do not offer car seat rentals.
