1st time renting a car

[KEMdisney]

Hello! We are heading to the world on Sunday, august 7th. We would like to fly in a day early to visit family in Clearwater. What car rental company do you suggest? We've nevrr done this before. We arestaying at The Boardwalk so wed like to be able to return it the next day somewhere close. We will not keep the car for our trip. Also... can u recommend a hotel somewhere close to the orlando area that is affordable. Nothing fancy, just somewhere to stay for the night.

Are you flying into Orlando or Tampa? You may be flying into Tampa, renting the car, and then flying out from Orlando.

National has a location at the Dolphin. That would be the quickest for you.

We are open to flying into Tampa or Orlando.... depending on flight prices. We have our return flightalready out of MCO.. I will check into National, thanks! Is that the only company that you can return to the Dolphin?
We would like to stay in the orlando area so we can wake up early and check in at BW..without having too much driving that morning

You can use either Alamo or National since they are basically the same company and both can be returned to the Dolphin.
