Advice... Getting a car mid stay

The last couple of times we've hired a car we've either done it from day 1 at the car care center (that was on a whim), or direct to and from Orlando international...

This time, we're looking at a car, mid stay for 1 week. We're staying at Saratoga Springs and wondering what people's recommendations for hire would be?

Just go for the car care centre? Or?

Thank you!

yup, rent from the car care. (book from the UK from one of the link above this forum in the yellow box)

book a free alamo shuttle from SSR to collect your car.

that will probably be the easiest way to go

We spent the morning in Hollywood Studios then got the boat over to the swan and dolphin hotel and picked up at Alamo which is in the hotel foyer.

OP. You will get a multitude of permutations on who to use and where to get it.

Personally I favour Alamo. I show no loyalty to any supplier I go for the cheapest of about 6 suppliers all of whom are reputable.

For convenience you can pick it up across the road from SSR in the Buena Vista Palace, or get the free Minibus to Alamo at the CCC. The latter is what I would do.

If you spot a Hertz glitch and fancy them they will pick you up from SSR and take you to their place in Bonnet Creek resort by OKW.

I did a split stay last time and picked up an Alamo hire from Car Care Centre and have booked the same this time. When you want to pick your car up you just get the desk to arrange for the shuttle to come and get you and take you there to pick up your car, and its free always a plus lol. Tend to opt for Car Care Centre because the general chat around on here generally is that of the other Disney locations you could use the choice of vehicle is better there
