I wanted to give this location 5 stars for the service we received here. We were able to secure a super last-minute rental with SIXT as the rental I had pre-booked months in advance with Enterprise required a credit card at checkout for identity verification. We don’t travel with credit cards so we were in a pickle. Luckily, SIXT just needed payment and our passports. It was a really busy day but we were taken care of quickly and our car was wonderful for driving up to the highlands for a few days. I believe we were helped by the branch manager who was really informative and kind. I definitely recommend purchasing the full coverage insurance. We dropped the car at another location and they found a scratch that we didn’t see our entire time with the car…would have cost us £750 had we not gotten the insurance. Do with that what you will!
