When I arrived at the car rental company, I was told that due to the Easter holiday, the 5-seater sedan I originally booked was not available. Instead, they offered me an 8-seater van, and that was the only option! The agreement was to return the car by 5 PM the next day, but because of the Easter holiday, the office closed at 4 PM. They only posted a notice on the door, but the contract still said 5 PM, and no one reminded me, causing me to make another trip to the car rental office to return the key. Although the service was friendly, the experience was very unsatisfactory!
