Car hire doesn’t have to be expensive and I note that this one was both picked up and dropped within the State at major conurbations.

I have a Mustang convertible for Oct of this year, picking up at Downtown SFO and dumping at Tucson Int.

That is over 10 days and is coming in at £885 inc £270 penalty to dump out of State. So £615.

Try a chat with Andy at DFCH.

I have no idea, we booked it in January and just seemed to get super lucky and it was a Highlander we ended up with so it was massive.

It was in a great location and had the parking which was great. It was easy to get everywhere from it and had plenty restaurants across the road. The breakfast wasnt up to much but fine for a quick fill up. It was probably the least favourite of the hotels we stayed at though just because they didn't have a safe in the room and we had def been spoilt with the ones we choose for other places but it did the job and the kids liked the pool and the hot tub was really hot!

Thank you. We are literally just using it as a place to sleep so as long as it is ok and in a safe area, I’m happy I have been looking at the Sheraton but it is £200 more with parking!

Yes it was safe and clean and had everything we needed; we also booked it as needed parking but its really easy to get in and out and get around from there. Have a great trip.

Thanks for a great trip report .
A few places on my list for next years hoped for trip

Didn’t know Andy at DFCH did anything other than Florida car hire so that’s a good tip

Great to see the costings so appreciate you sharing those too
