The location is quite convenient with a storefront, and they provide clear instructions for picking up and returning the car in advance, along with Chinese explanations. If there are any issues along the way, communication is prompt. However, they gave me a different car at the last minute with less fuel than expected, and the baby seat I reserved was not ready on time. Since I was in a hurry, I didn't have the time to argue much. You can't return the car at the airport, but they offer a free shuttle to the airport nearby.
Following the pick-up instructions, we took a cab to the Exhibition Center. The taxi driver drove in circles before dropping us off as per the address. We had to manage our luggage and kids while searching for the office which was unlike prominent companies like Heze, Eu, or Avis. After a long search, we found that Apex shares an office with Budget, it's small, and the staff were very patient, recommending insurance and giving breakdown instructions. We found it strange at the time, later we understood. It took forever to walk to the parking lot to get the car. Tip: In unfamiliar cities, rent from the airport; it's easier to pick up and drop off!
The car had not been cleaned, the outside was still dirty, the seats were stained from liquid spillage, carpets and foot rests were dusty and dirty. The child seats had not been cleaned or wiped over either. We had to wipe over the car and seats ourselves. The car was quite old, the doors sometimes became jammed, the key lock did not always work and it did not have a reversing camera for safety. One should be installed. the child seats had not been pre-installed upon pick up so I had to wait for them to be installed and they did not have a tether extension for one of the child seats so we couldn’t install it where we wanted to along the back row of seats. This is something that the company should stock, they are inexpensive and easy to use. There was no manual in the car so we couldn’t work out if we were using the anchor points correctly. It was dark and the employee didn’t even have a torch so we both had to use our phone lights- absurd! Pick up time took close to an hr, one employee at the desk either didn’t know how or couldn’t process my pick up so we had to wait for the other employee to finish his phone call.
