The overall service was acceptable, but the repeated attempts to upsell vehicle upgrades were a bit annoying. I originally booked a Toyota Corolla or expected a Ford Focus, as I was traveling alone with only a medium suitcase and few personal items. Considering urban parking, I felt a compact car would be more convenient. However, after persistent upselling by the staff, I opted for a Hyundai Sonata Hybrid instead. The performance of this Hyundai Sonata Hybrid was somewhat disappointing. The fuel consumption was not low either, as a full 55-liter tank could only cover a bit over 500 miles, roughly 800 kilometers, on the highway. While it performed adequately on flat city roads, it struggled significantly on uphill roads in national parks and similar mountainous areas.
A perfect car rental experience, the car's performance and condition were excellent. During this trip, we had two incidents,
First, at the hotel in Monterey, we broke the rear car window while parking. We immediately contacted the rental office. Unlike other parts of the car, the window had to be fixed urgently to avoid hindering the trip. Much praise to the rental company for having a similar car sent over from San Francisco that night. They drove three hours and delivered it to us at 4 AM!
Second, on the way from Big Sur to Bakersfield, we accidentally took a very dangerous mountain road. We drove for two hours along a winding cliffside road and were very worried about the car's condition. But the car performed splendidly even on such a challenging road, thanks to its powerful engine. We appreciate the rental company and have decided to continue renting a car for our trip to Los Angeles on the 15th.
