Needed a car for a week-long business trip. The Honda Accord I rented was clean, well-maintained, and fuel-efficient. Pickup took 15 minutes, return was even faster. Staff explained insurance options clearly without pushing extras. Price matched what I saw online - no hidden fees. Would rent again when I'm back in Toronto.
Good service overall. Rented an SUV for a family trip to Niagara Falls. Vehicle was comfortable and spacious. Only minor issue - pickup took about 30 minutes longer than expected due to paperwork. Staff was friendly though. Pricing is competitive compared to other Toronto rental companies.
Decent option for short-term rental. Car was fine, nothing special. Got what I paid for. Communication could be better - had to call twice to confirm my booking. Pros: convenient downtown location, fair daily rate. Cons: limited vehicle selection when I booked, would prefer more compact car options. Meets basic needs.
Excellent! My car broke down unexpectedly and I needed a replacement fast. Called Gihixo at 10 AM, had keys in my hand by noon. The Toyota Camry they provided was newer than I expected for the price. Saved my work week. Customer service went above and beyond to accommodate my urgent situation.
Rented for a weekend getaway. Process was straightforward, vehicle was ready on time. Appreciated the clear breakdown of costs before finalizing. One suggestion: would be helpful to have more photos of each vehicle model on the website. Otherwise, solid experience. Will consider using again for future trips.
Best value in Toronto! Compared prices from 5 different companies - Gihixo offered the lowest weekly rate without compromising quality. Rented a sedan for airport pickups (I run a small shuttle service). Vehicle performed reliably throughout the rental period. Return process took 10 minutes. Professional operation from start to finish.
I'm impressed. First time renting in Canada after moving from the UK. Staff took time to explain local driving regulations and insurance requirements specific to Ontario. The compact car I rented was perfect for navigating Toronto streets. Gas mileage was better than advertised - managed 550 km on one tank. Transparent pricing, no surprises at checkout. This is how rental service should work.
