Waited an hour to pick up the car from Oakland airport. Once inside it didn't smell or look very clean. The Passat they gave me got great gas mileage though.Budget

I booked through a 3rd party and they accepted my reservation but when I arrived they said they were sold out for a few days. They were able to help me but stressed me out about it first. 3rd party should know exact inventory to prevent this.2.0 Poor

Cons:
Sorry my bad. I screwed up. Will actually not fully my fault. I did indicate I wanted to rent from SFO airport and it also apparently gave me options for Oakland airport rentals and I rented a car from there without realizing. Duh! Will anyway it was nonrefundable and I'm screwed out of $140. So since kayak sent me a request via email for a review of my car rental it's fair to say it didn't go so well!2.0 Poor
Mar 2021
Pros:
nothingCons:
I reserved the car and was scheduled to pick it up at 8PM. I showed up a little bit late, and I assume this would be no problem, because the Oakland Airport Rental Car Center is open 24 hours a day. When I got to the car rental center, no one was at the Payless desk, and another lady told me that Payless closes at 8PM. So why would I be allowed to reserve a car for pickup at the time that the desk closes? So anyway, I had to change my trip plans because I had no rental car.6.0 Okay

Sept 2017
Cons:
The driver who picked me up was rude and unprofessional. He told me to get off my phone while I was working on my phone so he could make small chat in which he mentioned what he did with his tips and also complained to me about his manager texting him and not looking at the log in the office. Highly inappropriate for a customer to know the inter-workings of a business. And I felt he was pushing for a tip to the point of being rude, so I did not tip as I was offended by him interrupting my work. It was 9:45 am and I was there on business. It was business hours. An industry catering to working professionals should know this. I was so offended. I let the man at the counter know and he gave me a weak apology. The managers were close by and overheard and did not come over to offer an apology either. Worst Enterprise experience I have ever had.10.0 Wonderful
Sept 2017
Pros:
Our first outstanding experience was when we rented the vehicle for our daughters wedding. The Enterprise team on Alameda Ave in Oakland, CA was just as excited for the event as we were! Second terrific experience occurred when I had a mishap with the Enterprise vehicle I rented. I called the 24-hour service line to report the incident. The process was seamless and easy. Definitely will use Enterprise for all car rental needs in the future.10.0 Wonderful
Aug 2017
Pros:
Service was great! They picked us up at the airport and provided a quick service checkout. The vehicle was clean and worked properly. They also called before the end to the trip to make sure everything was going well. I would utilize this location again.Cons:
The only negative were that the wiper blades needed replacement; and the team gave me a discount to the price when I turned in the vehicle in Portland. (Turned a negative item into a positive aspect.)10.0 Wonderful
