Hertz scammed me – I selected a date on the website, they booked me for a different one, and didn't allow me to change or cancel the trip they wrongly scheduled. I ended up having to book another one with a different company at the airport.Reviewed 3 May 2024

The drop-off was fine. The Pick Up was extremely disappointing. We arrived at Reagan National and went to pick up our Hertz rental car. Once at the counter the representative (she was very professional) informed me there would be a 90 minute wait time to get our car. I explained to her that we arrived "on time" and also spoke to her manager - explaining that we flew in that morning because our daughter in law was having her baby that same morning and could they please see if these special circumstances would help facilitate our getting a car - they were both very polite but flatly said no, they could and would not. We had to wait.. So...After 45 minutes I spoke to the people who provided the keys to your customers at the Hertz pick up spot and explained our dilemma. They were quite empathetic and helped us immediately in obtaining a car after that. I feel your team at the counter could have tried harder to help us out when I explained our dilemma. Again they were very professional, just unwilling to be of assistance when we had to get to the hospital ASAP. The bottom line to Hertz is... Will we use Hertz again when we return to the DC area next month? Probably not due to the experience we just had.Reviewed 1 Feb 2024

- The car reeked of tobacco and marijuana smoke - The infant car seat was not in the car when picked up so we had to go back, which added time and gas - We were without the rental car for 4 hours whilst it the interior was detailed due to the smellReviewed 11 Dec 2021

Staff not friendly or very helpful. No directions as to where car was or what car was reserved for my family. I was told to go to zone 2 at Reagan National airport only to have no one around and after finally finding someone I was told zone shut down and go back to office for help. Only bright spot was the young upbeat woman i met upon returning the car.Reviewed 16 Nov 2021
