Katie at EMA was a gem, we arrived at midnight having given her our details over the phone. It was completely stress free and she was very polite. The only problem we had was finding the office. It is not marked Alamo but Enterprise. The girl when we dropped the car off was also friendly and polite - you have a good team there.

Wonderful staff, so helpful. I was able to pick up my car earlier than anticipated and they couldn't do enough for me. Showed me around the car and explained all the gadgets and familiarised me with the car. I had to extend my stay and they were so helpful and allowed me to extend my hire without any problems.
