This was our very first time renting and driving an RV. Brian and the RV were both fantastic. He walked us through what we needed to know and was very responsive when we had a question during our trip. And the RV was easy to drive and everything worked great. And the beds were super comfortable. I would definitely rent this RV again from Brian.
