Do know which hire companies you’re considering, but insurance or excess damage can be expensive, particularly for premium cars. |
I’ve driven there a few times many years ago. I was alone in a sub-compact/compact. Good reminder about the parking. Living in Chicago we are acutely aware of small spaces (our X7 isn’t used if we’re parking in a lot/garage downtown; it’s too wide). Had not thought about the length issues!
Have seen interesting stories about insurance- though someone suggested we look at AAA- may do that (Sixt had an add on of $20 a day for additional coverages- not sure if that will cover all the required insurance).
