Staff was friendly and helpful. Check-in was a breeze. Minivan was waiting and clean. Drop-off was simple and easy. Excellent overall experience and lowest price as well.

Check to see if power outlets are working. Ones in back for kids on a long trip weren't working. Luckily we had long charging cords that reached the back from the front USB chargers that did work. All else was great.
