NuCar was a good experience - competitive pricing and they had the car ready when we arrived. There is a 2-shuttle system to get there and drop-off, which takes time. You need to shuttle from the airport to the rental car area, and then walk to a different meeting point to shuttle to NuCar. The NuCar shuttle runs every 10-15 min, and there may be a line where you can’t get on the first shuttle. They were a little aggressive at trying to upsell insurance and fuel packages. This is typical for the discount places, so not unexpected. Drop off was easy - zero complaints there. Would use again despite the hassle of the second shuttle.

The address given on the KAYAK receipt was incorrect. Luckily, our Uber driver phoned the agency and was able to locate the correct office in the Travelodge lobby.

I called to verify they served the airport and they don’t so I cancelled and they tried to bill me.

4.0 Mediocre
The girl who was in the reception was irrespecutful and rude. They requested a deposit by 1,300 Euros which is above the average! And if you don’t have an insurance, it will be above the 5,000 € which is a shocking amount for a deposit. To be fair, the car was new one and cleaned. Our experience with the car was great and they refunded the deposit within just one business day.

In the fine print it says it only rents to tourists for local travel. It has unlimited miles but I couldn’t leave the state. I rented for a vacation to leave the state. If I left I would be fined. Didn’t take the rental. They need to put that in bold letters!

2.0 Poor
Despite telling them explicitly that I did not need insurance, they added it anyway. Then he also added roadside assistance. They ripped me off by over $350! The digital form I used to sign and initial the contract did not make it clear at all that he pulled this on me. I called them and they told me that it was my fault for not catching it! No refund of any kind. This company runs scams. I read their reviews afterwards, and numerous people complained about this.

Off site rental- signage at airport rental area and emailed instructions were not easy to follow to find elevator to lower pick up area. Signage at return area was also not clear. Otherwise great experience and would use again.

It was ok but it seems that they take your money for insurance and give you a damaged car. Sad to know that they pocket that money instead of fixing the damages will not rent from them again!
