Acceptable

The service attitude was not as good as expected, Chinese car rentals are better.

Small company, only saw one employee from start to finish. The attitude was good, but the service... The car provided was very old. The front desk only had one person working, so we couldn't exchange the car or cancel. This company is also far from the airport, and returning with luggage to find another rental company would take a lot of time. We thought it wasn't worth it, so we just accepted the old car.

The store is quite far from the airport, and the shuttle bus to the airport only runs 5 times a day, which is not very convenient. Abell is a small company; one afternoon in Queenstown, the car wouldn't start, and I called the rental company for half an hour with no response. I had to ask the police for help eventually. Later, I finally got in touch with the rental company, and they said there was no branch in Queenstown, so no replacement car was available. However, there's a nice Chinese guy at their Christchurch branch.

The second driver fee was 30 NZD for 9 days, which felt reasonable. I've heard some companies charge per day. Snow chains were 80 NZD for the 9-day period.
