Although it is clean, due to the nature of rental cars, there are many scratches on the exterior.
I strongly recommend recording any scratches on video when picking up the car before driving it.
I didn't raise any issues upon return, but just in case... Also, they take a $400 deposit, but it takes 4-5 days after return to return it.
Please keep this in mind.

Depending on the car rental supplier you book with and the country/region you are traveling in, the rental provider may require certain IDs (a valid driver's license, your passport, credit card, and other IDs with your name and address on them) and a printed booking voucher. We highly recommend consulting your car rental provider and the local embassy or consulate of the destination country/region (or visiting their website) before booking. Remember, all passengers are responsible for preparing the correct IDs before traveling. Important reminder: When picking up the car at the branch, fees for all additional drivers and extra equipment must be paid. Please consider these fees when using a credit card. If a valid credit card cannot be presented, or if there is insufficient available credit on the credit card, or if the credit card is not in the main driver's name, staff may refuse to let you pick up the car. In this case, refunds are not possible.Can I still rent a car without a credit card?
