    The car rental company is small but very professional. They send high-resolution pictures of the car to your email, and the deposit is automatically refunded after returning the car.

    Terrible car provider, should be avoided! They provided us with a brand new car, which was nice. Unfortunately I scratched a bit the rim. In the contract, it's clearly written that a rim scratch is $195. They took our $500 bond and also took around $320 directly from my bank account w/o my consent. Pure scam.
