Toyota Yaris Ativ in Thailand
Everything went great. The car was replaced with an analog Honda city. The car was in good condition, the interior was clean. The meeting at the airport at the appointed time did not take place. We had to wait. Not long. It is not very convenient that the car cannot be returned at the airport, you have to go to the office near the airport.
Toyota Yaris Ativ in Thailand
Thank you so much. Everything is super. The car is in excellent condition, tinted all around the excellent film (15% transmittance), at night you can see everything perfectly. Did not let me down. I received it at the airport on arrival in Phuket and handed it over at Phuket airport on departure. I liked everything. I will take more.

Honda City in Thailand
Met us at Suvarnabhumi airport for pickup (waited with a sign) and handing over the car at the specified time. Reasonable prices, basically had a nice Honda City car. If not for one thing. At the end of the trip, in the vicinity of Bangkok, the car broke down on the autobahn. We contacted Joey, he promptly called a tow truck, which removed us free of charge from the autobahn, and sent a replacement car Toyota Altis, no extra charge. The deposit was refunded in full when we turned in the car. And more, we clarified upon receipt - how to leave the parking lot of Suvarnabhumi airport, they said free of charge on the ticket, but we were charged 80 baht at the exit, a small thing, but the residue remained.
Honda Jazz in Thailand
It didn't go badly. If you take into account the cost of rent. The technical condition of the car leaves much to be desired. The car is all scratched, chipped, not a single element is intact. At a speed of more than 80 km / h the whole car began to vibrate, and the brakes in general worked with difficulty. I had to get used to it)))) When returning the car, we were accustomed to the fact that the tank is not enough conditionally one liter of gasoline. In general, you can rent, but you need to be prepared for the fact that the service is quite specific and the car will be far from normal condition
Nissan Note in Thailand
Everything's fine! Joey contacted me in advance and asked me to send a photo of my documents. He warned me that it was better to have an international license 👌🏻. He told me that I would be met at the airport with a sign. On the day of arrival I was sent a photo of the person who would meet me and the place of meeting. On arrival, the documents were drawn up, I paid the money for rent and deposit. The deposit was returned to me when I returned the car. Everything was smooth, efficient and no fuss! On the car: the car is clean, well-maintained, in good technical condition! They put a big bottle of water in the car (nice!). Thank you guys! ❤️🤗👍🏻
Toyota Yaris Ativ in Thailand
I have rented a car twice from your site and both times everything was great! The prices are also reasonable. The only thing I would suggest is that car owners clearly state their insurance policies. During my second rental I got a small scratch on the alloy wheel and they charged me 1000 baht. To be honest I was not too happy about it. It should have been covered by insurance, even with basic coverage. I didn't even know how I got that scratch, maybe from stones bouncing off the road.

It's been great
Honda City in Thailand
It was fine, but I didn't get the Honda City, as it had an accident a couple days before I rented it. I got a Toyota Yaris Ativ instead, which I didn't want to rent, even though it was cheaper by 100 baht per day. Because it has a very poor equipment, air conditioner blows either in the legs or in the body, and for hot Thailand good air conditioning in the car is number one. In general as a result I blew out my right ear and it was very painful, and still it is not cured till the end, still periodically it lodges. With music in the car also problems, konektakila magnet only with an iPhone, and we all have android, in general traveled throughout Thailand without music, on the phone listened to 🤦♂️. Engine 1,2 liters also does not shine sharpness, on the passes of Patong had to push the accelerator to the floor. In general, the car in all parameters lost to Honda, but there was no other choice, we reported the day before the lease and there was no time to look for something else. Otherwise we drove about 2500km around Thailand, the car did not let us down.
