South Island Central Loop, New Zealand

Even though we contacted customer service on WeChat before our flight from Auckland, we still had to wait quite a while for pick-up upon arrival in Christchurch. We waited over half an hour before we had to call again for the staff to come. On the plus side, we got to use a rice cooker, condiments, and rice left by previous customers for free, which saved us some money. We also left quite a few items behind when we left. We paid a 2500 NZD deposit, which is supposed to be refunded about a month after returning the car. Overall, the car rental experience was decent, but the car was old (over 100,000 kilometers) and noisy. I'll update the review after the deposit is refunded.

The cars provided by this company seem to be refurbished second-hand vehicles. They are old but show zero mileage, have an odd smell, and are a bit dirty inside and out, making the driving experience unsettling. While they do offer shuttle services from the airport to the rental office, it's still much more cumbersome than picking up the car directly from an airport counter, causing considerable delays.

We got a free upgrade from a Corolla to a Camry, but for the two of us, the car felt a bit large. A smaller car would have been more maneuverable. A Camry might be better suited for more passengers. The car had almost 100,000 kilometers on it and was making some unusual noises.

Very convenient, recommended

The car was in good condition. The girl who gave us the car was very helpful and even accompanied us to a nearby supermarket to buy some things.
