6.0 Okay
Easy pick up and drop off. Conveniently located right in arrivals area. My main complaint is they left the windows part way down and it was raining when we arrived. Driver seat was soaked and passenger seat slightly wet. Also, car was not cleaned very well. Empty water bottle in back as well as cup holders had crumbs/sticky stuff in them.

2.0 Poor
Awful. Had a reservation for a rental and when I arrived on time to pick up the rental they were “sold out” and had no cars available at all and offered zero assistance to help me get to my destination 75 miles away. Terrible experience
J
2.0 Poor
There was more than a 2 hour wait at the rebel counter and it was unclear if they had enough cats for everyone.
R
2.0 Poor
Booked my rental car on here and budget just show happen it was through budget, a company I usually don’t use.. Arrived at Dtw, found my way to the pick up area with my family and was greeted with; “We don’t have any more cars, it’s going to be a 3-4hr wait. Never happened to me before. It was late, so we caught an Uber to the hotel.
