The best car hire in Walnut Creek largely depends on your personal needs, preferences, and plans. If you're planning on spending a lot of time in the downtown area or have a smaller party, a smaller car might be the most convenient. These are typically easier to park, more fuel-efficient, and easier to navigate through tight or crowded spaces. However, if you're planning to explore the more rural areas around Walnut Creek or visit places like the Mount Diablo State Park, an SUV or 4x4 might be more appropriate. Finally, if you're visiting Walnut Creek for an extended stay, and you're concerned about environmental impact or fuel costs, you might also consider hiring a hybrid or electric vehicle. Walnut Creek and the broader Bay Area have numerous charging stations and generally supports eco-friendly initiatives.
Generally, in most residential areas and city streets, the speed limit is typically around 25 mph, unless otherwise posted. For non-residential roads and more major thoroughfares, the limit might increase to 35-45 mph. On highways like Interstate 680 and State Route 24 that pass through Walnut Creek, the maximum speed limit is typically 65 mph, although this can decrease in areas with high traffic or construction. It's always important to note that these are general guidelines, and actual speed limits may vary.
Walnut Creek's downtown area houses several public parking facilities. The Broadway Garage (first 3 hours free and then a £3-5 hourly rate) and the South Locust Street Garage (first hour free and then £1 hourly rate) are both excellent central locations. In the quieter, residential areas of Walnut Creek, on-street parking could be an option. However, such areas may enforce specific restrictions, including permit-only regulations, and as such, motorists should observe all signage to ensure compliance.

Pros:
The car was nice and had no issuesCons:
Pick up took an hour. Staff member was kind but very slow and easily distracted and then we had to wait for car to be fully cleaned. After renting I called to try to adjust reservation and was told it couldn’t be adjusted at all so I had to change plans even though hertz states it can be changed.8.0 Very Good

June 2020
Pros:
The overall process was excellent. Staff, Company and company to customer was excellent.Cons:
Not sure what features were available in Jeep model. - We were 7000+ feet on climb which our SUV handled well. When it came to steep decline (coming down the mountain), the button to turn on decline going 5 mph feature was disabled. My concern on steep decline from 7000+ feet was a concern if I would burn the braking system. Not sure if this is a feature that needs to be purchased, but at the same time there was a risk. Overall: Great SUV and would recommend to others.10.0 Wonderful
