Great customer service, friendly people, quick and smooth rental process. Location is fairly convenient to York rail station. No pick up/ drop off service is offered, so if the weather is poor (or if you have mobility issues) one must get a cab or Uber from the rail station each way.

Rob, our agent was very kind and so helpful. He helped me, an American driver to be comfortable with the vehicle and the British rules of the road. We highly recommend him and this facility.
