If you miss the pickup time, the store won't contact you. My flight was delayed and the store closed for the day at 5 PM without reaching out for a late pickup option. This left me stranded at the airport and I had to take a taxi and return the next day. Even the next day, they didn't contact me to confirm any details. The car I received was not very clean inside, and some interior parts were damaged, so I had to take photos to avoid future charges. The most disappointing part was that I forgot two down jackets in the car, and after returning the car, the cleaning staff took them and didn't admit it. They were a boss and a dotti down jacket. This company is cheaper compared to others, but since it's not located at the airport, it's inconvenient for pickup and drop-off. Nowadays, there are all kinds of people in Australia, and their behavior varies greatly.

Smooth communication, both pickup and dropoff were quick without queues. The car was relatively new, with less than 10,000 kilometers. It's a small company, which might explain why my request for a vehicle upgrade wasn't fulfilled, possibly due to limited resources.

The service attitude is great and friendly. Almost no waiting in line. The shop even upgraded our Kia K5 to a seven-seater Outlander for free. It was awesome since we had exactly seven people.

The pickup point is not at the airport; you have to wait for a shuttle bus to get to the pickup location. Other companies like Hertz and Avis have their pickup points at the airport. For tourists unfamiliar with Australia, especially those not familiar with the environment, it's best to understand this beforehand.

Apex clearly has older vehicles (the one I received was 2015) but great value.
