The Good

Customers overwhelmingly praise the staff for being incredibly friendly, welcoming, attentive, and going above and beyond.

Things to Consider

One significant negative review detailed extremely careless handling of sensitive personal and financial information during rentals, citing staff losing private forms and mixing up customer data, leading to serious privacy concerns.

A minor operational note mentioned that the checkout process can sometimes feel messy or disorganized, despite the overall positive experience.
