The owner personally picked us up and dropped us off at the airport, and recommended local attractions.

Very poor. When we arrived at the store, we found that the car we rented was not the same model as what we booked. It was much smaller than the Toyota we selected, and the trunk couldn't fit our luggage. We requested a change, but they said there were no other cars available. The male owner arrogantly told us to take it or leave it and offered a refund, refusing to rent the car to us. It was almost evening, and they took advantage of our situation. Additionally, the car had issues; the warning light came on after driving less than 50 kilometers. We contacted the owner, who took almost two hours to figure out the problem, which was resolved by turning the car off and on again. While on the highway, the car suddenly braked on its own, which was extremely dangerous; luckily, there were no cars behind us. We rented a car for ten days on the South Island without any issues, but this rental was problematic from the start. Overall, a very, very, very bad experience.

When returning the car, we called the company but no one was there. They said they went to a religious service. We returned after refueling but still, no one was there, and we had to wait. There was a small scratch on the left rear side during the inspection, and we were told it was no big deal. A week after we returned home, we received a bill for 641 NZD for the damage.

1. The airport shuttle has no Lovetrip Car Rental logo. 2. The staff are casual and poorly managed. They do not adhere to the agreed time, for example, promising to arrive in 5 minutes but actually taking 15 minutes multiple times. The store is often run by a couple who simultaneously run other travel booking businesses. The couple conduct cross-checks for pick-up and return inspections, where one person's inspection results are later overturned by the other. 3. Customers do not receive any copies of documents. In contrast, other companies provide copies of all signed documents, but this car rental does not. 4. The car inspection at pick-up is cursory, while the return inspection is extremely thorough, not missing even the smallest details. Other car rental companies usually have a policy stating scratches under a certain length are not pursued; this company does not. 5. After confirming everything was fine at the return inspection and completing the procedures, the customer is sent away. An hour later, the company contacts the customer via WeChat, claiming the fuel tank was not full and demands payment. If the customer refuses, they threaten to also charge for a 'scratch' from nearly two weeks prior that was supposedly waived, along with a refueling service fee. Before the customer boards their flight and after returning home, the company continues to attack the customer's character, defame them, and changes their statements, contradicting themselves. 6. The pre-authorization slip on the customer's credit card is not returned. 7. All customers are required to add the company on WeChat. 8. Regardless of the customer's situation, the company communicates via voice messages. Important information requiring confirmation and accuracy is not provided in text but through voice messages. Accusations and altered descriptions of facts are conveyed in text. 9. The car picked up was not a Corolla.

The staff were excellent. Top quality service . I highly recommend this company. Great car and great experience.

Great web site and easy to use.
