The store's workflow is very efficient. After checking the car rental form, they noticed I only had one copy of my driver's license, so they thoughtfully made an extra copy for me and gave back my original for future use. The car exchange was also quick; they simply checked the fuel and confirmed the return. They even reminded me that 5000 THB would be refunded to my credit card in two weeks. Most importantly, they upgraded my reserved car to a higher category, which was much more comfortable than an A-class car.

The car pickup process was straightforward. The staff marked the required fields on the form for me to fill out, which was convenient. The car I rented had over 30,000 kilometers on it, but its condition was still okay despite having many scratches. However, the white color of the car made these less noticeable. The staff showed me where the spare tire was located, then did a walk-around to document all existing scratches.

1. The car model matched the booking, satisfied. 2. Overall the car was in good condition, though the seats were somewhat dirty. During the drive to Pai along mountain roads, the car felt a bit underpowered, especially when other cars were speeding past. So, this car has less horsepower. Overall, I felt this car rental experience was good!

The counter service was very fast. They checked the order, photocopied my passport and driver's license, took a card pre-authorization for the deposit, and explained relevant points. Then I picked up the car. It took less than 10 minutes! The car was full of fuel and very clean. I rented a Toyota Founter, a 3.0-liter engine with plenty of power. Very comfortable to drive, highly recommended! I will rent this car again next time!

The counter is small but the service is good. It's located inside the airport, which is quite small. The car inspection was simple. I was worried about filling the wrong fuel, so I asked the staff to write down the fuel type. The staff drew a flower instead, which is how it's written in Thai.
