Excellent value and courteous, efficient staff.

We had an excellent experience with Wisecars in Boston. The price was quite reasonable, and even though our flight got in 1.5 hours late, they had an exceptional car available for us. The car was clean, low mileage and in great shape. Even though the line at the pickup counter was a bit long, the resulting choice of car and very kind treatment of the staff (we have kids!) made everybody happy.
