The lady issuing my vehicle was shady. Tried her best to get me to buy more insurance. Tried her best to make me buy a very expensive toll pass that I didn’t need. Would not go with Thrifty or their partner agencies again. D!ckheqds.Reviewed 16 Mar 2025

Pick up in Lós Angeles and we will return in Las Vegas on 01.01.25 in Hertz 1815 Sahara Avenue. However, at the scheduled return, the rental company was closed with no instructions on where to leave the car. When we called the central office, they told us we would have to return it at another location or keep the car for an additional day. Since we already had plans, we couldn’t go to another agency to return it. Therefore, we kept the car for one more day.Reviewed 3 Jan 2025

Pick up was great. Rico, who was helping me, was an absolute pleasure. However, driving off the lot was the worst experience. It took me close to 45 mins to leave. It was the slowest process to leave. Will never be renting a car from LAX again.Reviewed 13 Oct 2024

Pick up was terrible, long waiting line very very long, online check line was offered and when I got at the very end, it didn’t work so I had to go see a staff a counter because the online don’t always work from what I understand from the staff and it happened the exact same thing to the family we were travelling with. At counter, they were trying to sell us all kind of coverage, insurance although we declined…. We lost about 20 mins just for that when it only took 10 mins to complet the rental. But drop off was pretty smooth.Reviewed 11 Aug 2024

I waited in line for 3 and 1/2 hours to pick up the car I had reserved and paid for. No explanation as to why it took so long. No apology. Then when we got the car, it stunk of cigarettes and marijuana. Needless to say, I will definitely not be using Thrifty or Kayak ever again.Reviewed 10 Aug 2024
