Make sure you know when you need to return your car and how flexible the provider is on returns. Some companies will allow for express drop-off if you need to return your car after hours. This may mean paying for an extra day as opposed to returning the car the day before when the service desks are open. When making your return remember to refuel your vehicle if required to do so by your hire agreement; there are petrol stations located along the road to the airport coming from either direction. All are open 24h a day.

8.0 Very Good

Anonymous, Apr 2025

Liked the car. Didn't like that there was only one employee who had to serve customers at the desk as well as go out to the parking lot for pickup and dropoff, resulting in wait time. He was very professional though.
