The staff delivered the car one day early and paid for the parking without any additional charge. The service was good. My only complaint is that the car hadn't been cleaned beforehand.

The car door has noticeable scratches, but it doesn't affect its use. Apart from the car being an older model, everything else is fine. The advantage is that it's easy to pick up and drop off.

Picking up the car was very convenient; they could drive to the desired location, so I chose one near my accommodation. The pick-up time was also flexible. The only downside was that the car was expensive and not very new.

We had a great experience with this rental company. The car was exactly the one we booked and was really easy to drive. The company dropped it off at the airport and collected it from our hotel at the end of the rental. We arranged everything over WhatsApp, and he was friendly, responsive and very accommodating throughout. The whole process was smooth from start to finish. We’d happily recommend them to friends!

The car pick-up and return process was very convenient and smooth. The return time was changed at the last minute, but the supplier was very cooperative. The explanations regarding ETC, GPS, etc., during pick-up were very clear.

I originally booked a Nissan Kicks, but ended up with a Mercedes C180. However, it's acceptable; the ride was very comfortable. Five-star review! Thank you for the car rental service!

Japan Car Rental Experience Sharing: Convenient Pickup and Drop-off, Excellent Service. My car rental experience during this self-driving trip in Japan exceeded my expectations and deserves a huge thumbs up. From booking to picking up the car, the entire process was smooth, and the drop-off was equally convenient. The car was spotless, and its condition exceeded my expectations. Before departure, the staff even reminded me of nearby roads and parking rules, which gave me peace of mind. Returning the car was even easier. The staff member, Mr. Yang, was friendly and polite, and spoke fluent Mandarin, which made me feel welcome and eliminated any language barrier issues. He accompanied me to check the car's exterior and fuel level, and after confirming everything was in order, we quickly handed over the keys without any complicated procedures. The whole process only took a few minutes, with no deliberate difficulties or delays. The deposit refund and receipt explanations were very clear, and the overall efficiency was high, which deserves praise. What impressed me most about the entire rental process was the service attitude. Whether picking up the car, asking questions, or returning it, the staff remained patient and smiling. The convenient pick-up and drop-off locations, simple procedures, and excellent attitude made my self-driving trip much easier. I will definitely choose this car rental company again next time I come to Japan, and I would also recommend it to friends who want to drive in Japan. It's excellent value for money.
