Elegant RV Rental Review

Editors Review

Elegant RV Rental is a startup RV rental business that houses a fleet of newer, luxury units in a far south suburb of Chicago.

What Elegant RV Rental Tells Us

Founded in 2015, Elegant RV Rental can be one of your options for go-to glamping, especially for couples, retirees or the others. The company may be new to the RV rental category but the extensive experience of the owner himself gives him a slight edge among other competitors. Investing in a top-of-the-line RV as his weapon, Elegant RV rental focuses on quality and friendlier service. The depot in Joliet, Illinois shelters the newer Mercedes units that are available for either short or long term rental, as well as one-way options. They provide airport pickup and drop off for extra convenience. 

Fleet

The company has only one type of RV for rent, the Mercedes Airstream Interstate. This unit is the only option on hand so that would be a downer for budget travellers. Specializing in newer, luxury rentals, the company can only cater groups up to two people only, but may sneak in extra passengers at your own inconvenience because of the smaller dimension. However, the rentals are rather fancier with no outrageous advertising because you will be driving a Mercedes unit that is very easy to drive and runs with an impressive 19-22 MPG diesel. You may also bring your pets during your RV holiday, however, these units are not for those with special needs. 

Vehicle

2 Berth Mercedes Airstream Interstate

Aside from the pre-planned and GPS guided tours, this luxury 2 berth vehicle delivers a premier RV holiday with elegant appointments and sleek exterior. Driving a lavish unit like a Mercedes model can partially assure you with a quality road trip. However, the vehicle is not very big that may be bring out some issues with restricted space. To maximize the limited area, the rear acts as the living room during the day and becomes the sleeping quarters for two at night. On each side of the unit are the kitchen with sink, pots, pans and private bathroom with shower and toilet. All fittings inside are very gorgeous, as well as the outside features ranging from the roll-out awning to the bike rack. Your entire rental could be like that of a 5 star hotel, except with limited area and with wheels. 

Insurance

Just like most companies, insurance coverage is already part of the rental, which means the coverage meets the statutory requirements. However, do take note that in the event of a claim, renter is responsible for a $2,500 deductible for every occurrence. To have a more carefree road trip, you can add an SLI policy with a $1 million coverage and contents coverage policy at an additional rate. Further, the security deposit is also amounting to $ 2, 500. 

Reputation

This recent RV rental venture is yet to make a very good and lasting reputation. But so far, they are proving their worth in the industry, where many competitors, whether large corporations or small family businesses, are continuously improving their reputation. Their small fleet of luxury and newer units allows them to be more hands-on with their service. And since they are still a start-up company, they can only provide you with limited options at their one and only depot in Illinois. Further, their rentals aren't for renters on tight budget. 

Summary

Elegant RV Rental revolves around their selection of new and luxury Mercedes Airstream Interstate RVs that cater fancy travellers rather than the budget ones. They are still new to the RV rental industry so they provide few options on hand.
