The vehicle was great however when I arrived after I had previously reserved a vehicle I was told they didn’t have any vehicles outside a pickup truck and 12 passenger van. I then waited about 45-60 minutes until a returned vehicle was ready. The vehicle was comfortable however it smelled like someone had been smoking weed in it. Overall it was a very average rental experience.

If they are going to give you an EV instead of what it said on the reservation, they need to give instructions. Finding charging stations was difficult and cost us money and time. Not happy at all!

It was what I expected other than being charged for a full second day's rental when I only had the vehicle for 27 hours. Perhaps that is standard, but seems excessive.

The rental car was terrible. It was the dirtiest rental I’ve ever had. There were scratches and dents all over from previous renters. The radio didn’t work. The car should be removed from the rental lineup. I’d like a full refund.

Parking lot signs could have been clearer about where to leave the car. But that's on the airport, not Avis' fault.

The first car we were given at the hire point was very dirty and internally had a strong cannabis odour. On advising the staff they were apologetic and helpful however it baffled me that the vehicle could be sent out to hire in the state it was. Given we had a 12 hour drive ahead of us it was implausible that we could be subjected to the stench of the car for that long. Further as we were returning to Australia there was also a risk that our luggage could also become compromised through contact with whatever substances had been used in that car putting us at risk when trying to clear customs. The attendant said the previous driver would be charged additional cleaning costs. This begged the question if I had not said anything at point of hire then I would have been subjected to the cleaning cost. Altogether a very unacceptable experience.

Being disclosed about the deposit and them preferring credit cards would be great. My credit card had gotten stolen so I only had a debit on me and was charged a $500 deposit because of that. Of course you get it back, but it’s an inconvenience. My plane landed late, they gave away the car I originally booked… I was only 30 mins late to pick up. The line itself was long so I spent another 10-15 mins waiting which is fine ! But just to say, it’s odd they gave away the car I booked so quickly. Whatever. At least I got a car, but it still was far from a smooth experience.
