Very good car rental company . They send you the location of the car at the airport when you arrive and very quick pick up service . Affordable rental and without hidden charges no need to pay extra for insurance or leave a credit card etc . We did not see anyone when we left the car at the indicated parking outside the airport and left the key in a key box . Brilliant 5 stars I wished it was that easy and friendly everywhere else in europe , thank you !!
