Considering the issues with vehicle inspection and voice guidance, I arrived early at the pick-up store, but it was closed. I reported this to the rental car service, and they said they would contact the car rental company and get back to me. Eventually, they said they couldn’t reach the company and asked me to wait nearby. I waited until around 3:50 PM (pickup was scheduled for 4 PM), but no one showed up. It was too hot, and my child couldn’t wait any longer, so we returned to the hotel, which was fortunately nearby. At the hotel, the rental car service contacted me again, insisting I go back to the store to avoid missing the opening time. I found it odd since they should be prepared in advance for my booking. After settling my child, I returned to the store, and this time it was open. However, I was told there were no cars available and I had to wait until 6 PM. They also showed me records of attempts to contact my domestic phone number, which was puzzling since I was in Malaysia. Suddenly, a car became available, so I signed the paperwork and went for the vehicle inspection. The staff only checked the exterior, noted some damage points, recorded the mileage and fuel level, and left while I was taking photos and videos. I had to figure out how to open the trunk and refuel by calling them later. By the time I left, it was already past 5 PM, but the recorded pickup time was still 4 PM. The car's performance was also poor; the steering was shaky. When returning the car, they mentioned it was dirty inside. I suspected they might charge me a cleaning fee, but I explained that the sand in the car wasn’t from me as I hadn’t been to the beach. They accepted my explanation, and the return was processed normally.
Firstly, it's very difficult to find the pickup location on the 1st floor, and the drop-off is on the 10th floor. Moreover, the promised 30-60 days deposit refund took much longer. I had to contact the rental car customer service to get it back, and I was told it would take 7-14 days after 10 days of continuous follow-up. Ultimately, it seems the deposit refund might take up to 90 days. This car rental company is completely unreliable. Terrible service. As of now, I still haven't received the deposit back since I returned the car on August 14th.

About PARADISE:5.7/10
The car itself is in bad condition with scratches all over the car. The car fuel cover would not open upon pulling the lever and have to pry it to make it open and the high beam isn't working as well.
