I had a car that was canceled on me and Gilberto was to the rescue last minute! His communication was excellent as I accidentally first booked pick up the car at his house, he checked with me right away to see if I needed to pick it up at the airport. Also, I was able to get an earlier flight the next day as this was a work trip and there were no issues with me returning the vehicle early. This vehicle worked out perfect for me!

Vehicle was in good condition and clean. Only thing I would say is there was no mention of parking fees to pay leaving the lot from the airport but a minor detail. Gilberto was very communicative and responsive. I would rent from him again for sure especially having another vehicle ready for us to change over to when ours was not available. Overall a great experience that was easy and efficient thank you again sir for the ride
