Car wasn't clean
Pros: The pickup drop off experience was fine with great personnel as usual. Great price for that day
Cons: There was one MAJOR issue. After I was on the road for a while I stopped for a break. When I went to get back in, the sun happened to be shining at just the right angle to reveal vomit chunks on the carpet kind of hidden right below the drivers seat.
I was too far into the drive to turn back so I had to live with this seat-mate for the rest of my 4 hour drive.
It took herculean effort to not obsess over the vomit just a few feet away from my face.
There was heavy car freshener smell so I assume the presence of vomit was known but mayhe they missed it with seat pulled forward and hiding it.
Mistakes happen and I will rent with them again despite this being one of the grossest drives I've ever been on.
I reported this when dropping off but Enterprise has yet to reach out to me.

Pros: Renting a (very) compact car for two days was cheaper (including gas) for a one-way uber ride from LAX to Anaheim.

LAX to Paso Robles
Pros: Car was OK. Bill was incorrect. Daily rate of $9.30 calculated for two days rental at $37.20. Should be $18.60 unless I am missing something.

11 Jan. 2016
Cons: I was told the car would cost me US$1200.00 but was finally handed a bill for US$2600.00.
I returned the car clean with no damages and full tank!
I am totally devastated!
9.6 Excellent
27 Oct. 2016
Cons: The line to pick up the car took a little longer than I'd have liked, and my car wasn't full when I picked it up. They did, however, upgrade me immediately afterward to make up for the inconvenience.
3.2 Mediocre
1 Nov. 2016
Cons: Insurance was far higher than rental cost and i was forced to buy third party liability insurance and some other related insurance that "always" goes with the third party liability as per them.
The agent at the counter was not helpful much and seemed distracted with other matters.
6.0 Good
17 Jan. 2017
Pros: Nice car, quick return. The staff were polite and helpful.
The Hundai accent hatchback was nice.
Cons: The bus took so much time (30 minutes) to come to the LAX international terminal and was crowded.
The insurance was so expensive that what I paid overall was more than double the rental cost, and that was not well explained to me by the staff initially.

Needs more frequent shuttles from Thrifty to LAX
Cons: We waited over 25 minutes for the shuttle to pick us up from Thrifty to take us back to LAX airport. By then, a large number of people had accumulated and the whole shuttle was packed. Took another 10 minutes to load everyone and their baggage on board. That is way too long. Meanwhile down the road I saw 4 Fox rental car shuttles come and go in the same amount of time

Pros: The line to get the rental wasn't as long and tiring as last time!
Cons: I got a $300 cheaper quote over the phone than I got at the counter! Even after various discounts it was more expensive than the price quoted over the phone!

Pros: Pulled up and dropped off.
Cons: Location was tough to find.

17 Oct. 2016
Pros: Though they didn't provide carts to move our luggage to a shuttle wait area, an agent seeing my distress told me to wait and he would provide a driver to take me to the airport. He did, and it was great. Service efficient as well, and courteous.
Cons: It would have been nice to have had carts to move luggage, as I'm not sure al agents would be as helpful as the gentleman who assisted me.

The sense of service
Pros: The car, a Ford Expedition, I used during 1 full month, was just perfect.
The day I got the problem of oil lifetime expired, Avis replaced the car in Tucson airport, without appointment, in less than 30 minutes.
I got exactly the same car, at no over cost plus a smile...
The car return in Los Angeles was quick ans simple, the shuttle drove me directly at the terminal.
2.0 Mediocre
14 May 2018
Poor service
Cons: Just been charged £60 for what I don’t know. Returned the car got a chit saying I had zero to pay after the inspection and fuel check. No email explaining what the charge was for. Also car was in poor condition. Rear parcel shed missing so our luggage was permanently on display.
2.8 Mediocre
25 Jun. 2018
Cons: Pickup from lax was a disaster and took over an hour and a half. No shuttle buses, enormous lines, and car wasn't ready on time
4.8 Okay
23 Oct. 2018
Pickup was a zoo. I waited over 9 minutes for a car.
Pros: Staff did their best to help. Avid had many more customers than cars.
Cons: The wait was insane. And when I returned my car, it turned out not to be in the system so I had to go back inside and wait on line for drop off, too.
From $47/day

So-so
Cons: They try to up sell you on so many things that you end up paying significantly more than advertised eventhough you decline many of the options. Really wish they would be more transparent on pricing given that I paid twice what I expected to pay! Would definitely recommend going with a different company...
10.0 Excellent

Customer Service should be the same at every locat
Pros: Drop off at LAX was awesome! We had a real crappy experience picking up in Henderson, Kentucky though. The quick and friendly customer service at LAX saved my overall review, however, we will probably never use hertz again.
Cons: -

Huge price differnece as promoted online and actua
Cons: I was in shock my estimate reservation price doubled at the rental car office. At that point, I cannot do anything. I am traveling, I am in new city, I need a car. I only could do is shut up and pay the price. I think it's very VERY wrong to rip off people that way. I can understand some amount increase but DOUBLED?! It's ridiculous! I don't know other rental car business but never NEVER to Hertz!

give yourself an extra hour for pick up
Pros: i eventually got a car
Cons: it took for ever -- and the only reason they make you wait in line is to try and convince you to pay more for a bigger car, take insurance you don't need, and swindle you on their fueling package

21 Apr. 2017
Pros: Not Much
Cons: Arrived at 10:00 PM. Had to wait nearly 2 hours in a line at the Hertz facility with 26 stations and only 2 people checking in a continual line of nearly 40 people. Each rental transaction took about as much time as I took to lease my personal car. There were several other Hertz personnel walking among the facility but no one seemed to be willing to assist anyone. When it was finally my time to check in and I registered a complaint about the wait the Hertz rep told me to return to the line because he was taking a break leaving only 1 Hertz Agent to handle all of the people.

Charged for extras and lied to!
Pros: No problems with the car
Location of the lot was in a decent area
Not much else positive
Cons: Paid for car rental via kayak in full. Waited for 45 minutes to vetserved. Told representative at desk I did not want any extras. I questioned the accepted personal insurance and was told it was included in the voucher. I repeated I did not want any extras and he said it was included so no problem.
Went to collect car which wasn't there. Had to go back to desk and finally after another 15 minutes got keys to another car.
Rental went OK. Returned car and questioned the fees but was told all included and no extra charges. Upon returning home card had been charged £160. Had to call budget and now they are investigating which will take them 10-15 days. Won't use budget again after blatantly being lied to!

MORE EXPENSIVE THAN I THOUGH
Pros: The shuttle from the airport was good, the car was really clean and low milleage, very well equiped.
Cons: I did a reservation online for a "compact" and when i arrived they told me that there was not compact available so they charged 12 dollars for the upgrade to a "economy".In my reservation the total cost was around 40 dollars but after all i paid almost 120 dollars. BUDGED did not respect the price that they give you onlne. It was really expensive just for one day that i had the car.
RESPECT THE PRICES THAT YOU GIVE ONLINE!!!!!
And fill up the tamk if you do not want to pay almost 10 dollars per galon.

Service
Cons: Poor service. Rep did not explain much, including that they would take out a $150 security deposit. She sold me on returning the car empty because gas was cheaper. Then when I returned the car they asked why it wasn't full. Said I didn't have the return empty option and took $120 of my security deposit. I think the rep was more interested to go on her break then finishing my contract.

Cons: I got to the location at midnight to find 2 employees trying to assist 45 customers. They aren't at fault as I'm sure they would like to have additional employees also so every person they encounter isn't annoyed. When I returned the car they were so backed up cars were so backed up it took 15 minutes to get into the lot and I almost missed my flight.

cheapest but customer service is lacking
Pros: The car was by far the cheapest we could get in the area
Cons: They make up for the cheap cars on their fuel scam and it was nearly impossible to talk to a person on the phone and get problems solved. Our flight out was cancelled due to weather, and we were on hold for like 20-30 minutes waiting for a rep. Once we got to talk to someone, she did not have any authority to make a new reservation for a new day-long local rental or at least waive the drop-off or extension fee (which we had already paid for daily*3) for adding another day onto our original agreement.
The car had some like goop in the cup holder - maybe it was a cleanser?? It also felt wobbly when I drove, but it may have just been the car and not a lack of maintenance.

LAX Facility needs help
Cons: The pick up experience was HORRIBLE! We booked a luxury vehicle.. on arrival to the facility, there were no cars available. Other customers were just taking whatever car came up as they had been waiting for over an hour. So we had to do the same. The staff was overwhelmed and just because they were understated and not enough vehicles. Seems the company takes bookings even when they don't have proper inventory on hand! VERY VERY poor. We had to go change our car at a different location wasting half a day of our trip to LA. Wont use FOX again!

And it was very late in night, she would not offer us other options, only ask us to pay or leave, we are very tired and have to change to other car rental company,
Lucky, 1 hours later we rent a SUV with insurance included which is much better price than from FOX for a full size car.

Pros: I think we got lucky because the shuttle from LAX picked us up almost immediately. Others said they waited quite a while. Same for drop off service.
Cons: Long wait to get car, think it took about 45 minutes before making it to the counter. Once there the price ended up being about twice what I was quoted for a one week rental.
Car itself was fine, but not worth the price, since I could have gotten it much cheaper through another provider if I would have know the final cost. Needless to say, won't be using Payless again.

I got sent away...
Pros: I have a humorous travel horror story now.
Cons: It all starts when I landed at LAX. I looked around to find the rental place and saw a shuttle pickup. The thing is, when looking at the rental locations, Economy Rent a Car wasn't on any of them. Instead, I had to pay a taxi $21 to drive me 1.5 miles to the rental location.
When I arrived the doors were locked, gate was closed, but the lights were on and there was a guy sitting at the counter. I tried to open the doors and the man at the counter waved me away. I shrugged at him and knocked on the door. This is when he started to pick his nose and stare at me blankly. I paid another cab to take me to Budget Rentals and enjoyed the rest of my trip...

Pros: I consider Kayak as a reputable site. This shady agency should not be allowed to advertise on Kayak. This was supposed to have been an LAX location. Well, no explanation was given as to the actual "airport location". We had to take a shuttle to a very shady deserted parking lot and call the Economy Rent a Car and wait for another 10-15 minutes for their very dirty van to pick us up. The actual office is shady, dirty, uninviting. Staff dishonest. The car was dirty, the seats were covered in spot. For a non-smoking car, it smelled like it was smoked in. They lied about the need for the EasyPass and charged an additional 9.99 per day. Even though we explained that we would only be in the LA area, and at most go to Santa Barbara, and Highway 101 has no toll booths. I would not recommend this rental agency to anyone. I would highly recommend to Kayak and any other site such as Kayak to drop this agency. We usually rent from Budget and Stix, The only reason we went with this company is that at the time they were the only ones that had a full size car available for the time that we were in LA

Decently priced rental in LAX
Pros: The value of this rental was the best part! We had no issues with the car, the service was good, and it was the best price we found in LA.
Cons: The worst part was the shuttle. It was not clear when I booked the car that I would need to take a shuttle to the Westin. The Westin shuttle was not running very often and we waited quite a while (and considered a cab). But the return worked out and the shuttle was just arriving as we were.

Cons: I rented an economic car for 35USD daily on Kayak website but when I actually picked up the car there was an extra 30USD for insurance that I didn't even had the option to select what type of insurance I wanted on the website but if I had gone to the more expensive ones on different websites I would have saved money since the pick up and drop off with AMPM is so inconvenient

Overall a good experience with a couple of opportu
Pros: AMPM texted us instructions for getting to our pick-up point.
I might have preferred this via e-mail, but it was still helpful to get.
Rosa who processed our info upon arriving was very nice, as was the gentleman who she left instructions for that took us straight to our terminal on our way back in the very car we had rented. That simplified and sped up getting to our flight.
Finally, the car itself was in good shape and a good ride that fit the bill. I would rent from them again.
Cons: The text message of instructions said to get off at the first stop which would be Lot C. But the driver of our shuttle said our first stop was the Cell Phone Wait Lot and that the 2nd stop would be Lot C, and was adamant they were different stops. Thankfully, I chose to ignore him, I stepped off the shuttle and recognized that the two were very close - virtually the same location - so we went with the former and our driver was there waiting for us, but this was confusing. Not AMPM's fault, but knowing the unreliability of shuttle drivers, maybe the text message of instructions could have been clearer, or included an image of a map.
Speaking of the shuttle, we waited a good 15-20 minutes at the airport before the shuttle to our pick-up point arrived. One that was supposed to go to our destination did not stop at our waiting point. Another shuttle driver said that they were contracted by a different service, and that this skipping of the stop was not atypical.
This led to us getting our car later than we'd have desired, and getting stuck in traffic. So again, not strictly AMPM's fault, but a hiccup that I'm guessing another company with its own shuttle (or that had a better run partnership w/the shuttle company) might have avoided.
Finally, the Fiat car we ended up selecting had less-than-impressive acceleration, which would have been helpful in LA. Not AMPM's fault by any means - we could have chosen an Altima that was also present. But it might have been mentioned as we chose the pick-up.

The staff was very quick to address it-- the computer failure, a bank holiday-- and even sent proof to help with a 'disputed' charge if it came to that. The company did everything that they could and went further to assist if needed (it wasn't).

Pros: The car was very comfortable, found a great deal online so was very excited about renting it for a couple days.
Cons: The staff is always trying to sell you everything. Insurance, late fee (after 30mins late) and it's not cheap. The rental was 23$, the extra stuff made a total of 79$ very annoying if you ask me, since the itenerary says that all is included. Anyway, otherwise I couldn't take the car, so I paid it anyway.

Cons: The rental was clearly not cleaned between renters. There were reciepts, parking permits, and what looked like pet hair in the car.

worst experience of my life with car rental
Pros: When I got to another company for my car rental.
Cons: You have to call from airport, take a shuttle to some lot, call from the lot, they eventually come get you. Didn't help with bags or anything. Was trying to refuse my service dog. When we got to the office insisted I show my insurance card or pay an additional 35 dollars. When I offered ways to confirm my insurance coverage it was all refused. Eventually dropped me off at the side of a road with bags and service dog! I walked in to the closest rental company. Horrible experience after a long trip.

Cons: Very rude customer service. Make sure everything is written because they don't hornored their own word. And becareful with the hidden charges such as additional fee to take you back to airport after you drop off the car.

zinged us with late drop off charge that we were n
Pros: The staff was friendly
Cons: We made the reservation on line and thought we had until noon to drop the car off. We ended up getting charged $20 late fee because we had picked it up a few hours early. I would have been fine with this if we had been notified up front. The whole drop off / pick up experience is very disorganized and unprofessional but probably the reason the rental is so much cheaper than the big guys.

Cons: The tyoe of car promised wasn't given accurately. The whole pickupnpricess took almost 2 hours without proper apologyvfrom the manager. The vans had broken seatbelts and the bluetooth connection was broken for both vans we rented. Overall, the service was so poor I was so disappointed with what we were given.

Never again
Pros: The personnel were nice
Cons: it was difficult to get to the pickup location. They did not have the small van I reserved and I was forced to take a 12 passenger van. The van had over 120,000 miles and the steering made the van wonder all over the road. I had to exchange the van because I thought it was dangerous but the van I received was almost as bad as the original. Never again!

Rude and unorganized
Pros: The car was great. Semi clean and drove well until a light came on for low pressure on tires. Made me scared to drive it.
Cons: It all started with no phone number after a certain time. Shuttle pick uo at airport was unorganized and I had to pay 25 dollars for a Taxi to take me to my car rental. When I was paying for my car the machine was acting up and the counter people instead of being apologetic they were laughing and joking around. When i received car no one went over car details. Over all very unprofessional and will never use them again!

Didn't honor contract deal, no actual clerks for customer service.
Pros: The only thing I enjoyed was the greeting from the person on staff. He was friendly, helped navigate me through the confusing process, and personalized each customer interaction. He should get a promotion.
Cons: Location of the property was difficult to find. I arrived via Lyft. We passed by an abandoned office building with the address of the location. After driving down another street we located the office.
After the initial greeting, I noticed there were no staff physically located on site to help us. The guests before me were placed in a station with an Ipad where they were put on Facetime with a staff member. After hearing their disputes with the changes to their initial contracts, I knew it wasn't going to be a simple transaction. The gentleman before me was asked to be charged an extra $300 since he didn't book directly through Ace for incidental purposes. He had adequate insurance and everything.
It was my turn on the Ipad. Once the clerk confirmed my reservation number, they told me I didn't have unlimited miles. I reiterated the fact that it was included with my contract. The only thing they could offer was 100 miles/day. I am in the process of selling my home in Las Vegas which required me to make a quick trip into that town. Their next offer was 120 miles a day. Everything else was going to be an extra $.40 a mile.
From a person who has to travel frequently, I prefer friendly, honest staff who can help me on my way through my journey.
Once I realized this company was trying to find other ways to charge me beyond was I was originally promised, I decided to leave.
I will never use Ace rental car again. I walked down the street and used Thrifty, which gave me an honest price, and honest answers.

2hours and 30 min to get my car !
Pros: Clean car
Cons: + clear lack of indications on how to get the shuttle to reach the renting location
+ 2 hours and an half to finally get the car ! (everyone there was in that situation too...) because only one human and two remotes on Ipad to handle dozens of customers.
+ My Kayak insurance seemed not to work and I had to pay a way more expensive one in the end (+$100) what makes it exactly as expensive as If I rent it directly to Enterprise Rent A Car

Customer service was horrible!
Pros: Nothing
Cons: Poor customer service. Lack people skills and service. They wanted to charge me extra for driving over 100 miles per day because I failed to check off a box that 95 percent of people renting their fail to check off. The lady in front of me had been waiting for an hour to get a paper receipt acknowledged that she dropped off her car she rented. The people were waiting on cars that were promised and yet had not arrived. The man in the counter was taking out his frustration on failing how to handle working under stress on the customers. Never going here. Btw no I didn't rent. Ended up going to Avis and they were able to get me a car in two minutes time from when I left this horrid place.

- Get ready to explore the dazzling sights of Los Angeles on the road trip of a lifetime. When you rent a car on your vacation, you will enjoy the freedom of discovering each corner of the city at your own pace. Rather than relying on public transport, opt for a hire car to easily navigate this sprawling city.
