    Ya know, renting a car is renting a car... it's all pretty cut-and-dry. The only thing that can…read moremake a difference is how nice the people are that you come in contact with. Don't ALL businesses know that yet? Anyway, the guys at the counter (wish I had his name) and the guy that brought the car around... so nice. Not "official Avis nice"... the kind of nice that takes more than a plastered on smile and reciting "avis script". Maybe corporate tells the guys to show a bit of interest but these two were genuinely competing with each other to try to tell my wife and I where the best places were to drive in the Cotswolds. Of course, you get the same game that you get at ALL rent-a-car places... the insurance price that they give you on the phone is what they have unless you want the "complete" insurance... and then maybe you want the "totally complete" insurance. All these levels of insurance that, if you knew about them from the beginning, you might go elsewhere, so they give you they teaser rate on the phone then tell you just before you are about to drive away in a car that has the steering wheel on the opposite side to go drive on a road where you drive on the opposite side (and it's raining out) that you might want the other insurance packages "just to be sure"... oh well, the guys were still really nice.

    This Avis location in Oxford is adjacent to the train station, so it's extremely useful if you are…read morearriving by train. The range of cars available is typical of any other branch and you do have the option of dropping the car off at any of their other branches. However, driving in Oxford can be a bit difficult as parking is very difficult and where available, quite expensive.

    Hotsons is the main minibus hire company used by local university clubs and societies. It's got a…read moregood range of decent quality minibuses from 7 seats to giant 17 seaters. You can also get vans, trucks and cars, which could be a worthwhile alternative to bringing a car to Oxford, considering the parking difficulties in the city centre. The club I'm in always hires the 17-seaters and they're all front-facing seats and good quality. They come clean and in good condition. You can also drop them off any time at night, which removes all time pressure from the hiring process. However, I've got quite a few gripes with Hotsons' service: Not very polite telephone service - customer service doesn't seem to be a strong point. Very difficult to change/cancel bookings - they seem to change their mind about how far in advance you need to do this. Location - they're outside the ring road, which is a pain if you're cycling to get there. I recommend the number 10 bus from Queen Street, which stops on Horspath Road. Minibuses - not all of them have a CD player, which seems rather tight these days, and is a pain on long journeys. One last word of warning: we once got a flat tyre and the spare was the wrong size, meaning we had to wait hours in the middle of the night for the AA to come out and rescue us. In conclusion then, they're worth using and there's not much competition in the area, but it doesn't feel like a great experience.

    Hired a van on a Sunday two weeks in a row. On both times staff were really friendly on the phone…read moreand in person. Hire price was very reasonable and being able to drop the van back at anytime day or night is a great feature. I would use them again for sure.
