General Comments

We are an ex-pat family and have used Dan Dooley for a number of years now, primarily for vacation rentals in Munster, and so primarily renting in Shannon. Staff have been helpful and courteous (and remarkably stable from year to year). Vehicles have been as advertised, reasonably low mileage (3000 - 25000 Km) and in good condition. Hub-caps ARE often held on by nylon ties, as someone else points out, but that's to save losing them on a bumpy country road and having to pay for the replacement. Given the state of the boreens on the Beara peninsula (where we often visit) I would far rather have the nylon ties!

The only issue I have ever had with mechanical problem on a car was a puncture well away from civilization and then not being able to find the "key" for the wheel-nut locks. It was there, just not easy to find. I make a habit of asking the staff to help me find it now before leaving the lot if I ever rent a car with the wheel locks.

Rates, when one factors in insurance (particularly now when most platinum cards have dropped Irish coverage) are very good; almost always cheaper than any other on-airport alternative.
