Car was great, nice that it had the back up camera.

We specified that we would return the car at 9 pm. When we arrived everything was closed at the airport, and we didn't know where to drop it off or what instructions to follow, would have been nice to be informed that they wouldn't be there when we arrived to drop the car off.
