The short version
Based on about 291 Google reviews kept after removing 9 (staff-praise and off-location), of which roughly 230 contain usable text, this off-site desk is polarised: many reviewers report a quick, friendly handover at a low price. A large and consistent group, including many recent reviews, report pressure to buy the desk's own insurance, prepaid bookings refused after late arrival, disputed damage charges and slow deposit refunds. Travellers with a physical credit card in the main driver's name, who document the car carefully and allow extra time for the shuttle, report better outcomes. Web sources agree on the complaint themes but are mostly undated.
