Stroller rentals

[Sorsha]

We are considering renting a double stroller for our September trip because we KNOW we will need a seat for our 4 year old, and we are pretty sure that the 7 year old will poop out during the day and want to ride too. While the 7 year old wants to walk, we can use the extra seat for storage.

I have never rented a stroller before, in fact I never even paid any attention to the rental strollers before cause I always brought my own. However our stroller imploded about a year ago, and DD is of such an age that we just didn't replace it. I would hate to buy one just for this trip, and never use it again, so I think rental may be the way to go. But I have questions... (imagine that)

1) How much does it cost, per day, to rent a double if you do the length-of-stay option?

2) Does the little certificate/coupon/card that you get GUARANTEE you a double?

3) Will a smallish 7 year old fit in one of the seats?

4) Does anyone have a picture of the double stroller that they can post so I can see what they look like?

Thanks!

Length of stay brings the price down to $16 a day. I'm not sure that the length of stay *guarantees* you a double, but I can't imagine they run out too often, if ever. Especially at the time you are going. A smallish 7 year old will fit just fine, in fact a large 7 year old would probably fit just fine.
