Overall good

Very good

Very smooth

Car was almost new in perfect condition. Location wasn't obviously a car hire as looked like parking and car wash from outside. At pick up they tried hard to sell unnecessary extra insurance but I think all car hire places do this.

Booking process was simple enough and included all required cover. I just bought excess insurance on top.

Had to wait for a very long time to pick up, at the desk and then again in the car pound. In all, over 2 hours. Wasn't allocated the car we had booked. Given a larger car, which we did not want. This was more difficult to manoeuvre on narrow roads and used more fuel, so cost us money.

It was difficult to find where we actually pick up the car. Needs to be some additional information when booking or before you collect the car. They gave us a car that needs methane gas, but very few stations have this, do was impossible to find this type of gas. Seems unreasonable to hire out cars that you can fill up again! Added a lot of unwanted stress to the trip!

Do not rent from Ecovia/Autovia. I picked up the car at the airport, drove it to a gated residence, and parked it and didn't drive it again until I returned the car to the airport. When I returned the car, they found a "scratch" on the Back of the mirror and Ecovia wants to charge me about $160. This is a ridiculous and frivolous charge. First, it was late at night, dark and rainy when I picked up the car. I did a cursory inspection of the vehicle but who checks the back of the mirror for scratches? No American company would charge you for this. Just look at the attached picture ! I'm sure the scratch was already on the car when I picked it up because it was parked undisturbed in a garage at a residence. Maybe I was penalized for not purchasing their insurance. I appealed the charge to Ecovia/Autovia to no avail. The other practice that this company did was to give me the car with the tank 2/8ths full of gas. When this happens, the customer Always returns the car with more gas because he/she does not want to be charged. The customer deserves a car with a full tank of gas at pick-up. Start-up rental companies like Ecovia with unethical practices like this should be avoided. They drive you to the major car rentals where you know you will pay more but they won't try to screw you like Ecovia is doing to me. The low price isn't always a good deal. It bothers me that this company is getting away with screwing me on such a frivolous charge. Just look at the picture. I will not rent from Ecovia again. Buyer beware of Ecovia/Autovia!
