Pros:
Proximity to my houECons:
Everything- they gave me a different car than what I reserved and I was 60 seconds into my trip before a check engine light came on and then a light telling me I had a flat tire. I did not have a flat tire but I returned the car as there was clearly issues with this vehicle and I did not feel safe.2.0 Poor

Pros:
pick up and drop off super easy? car was clean, had automatic cruise control when you hit set,had good mileage and was comfortable.Cons:
It took me a long while to figure out how to maximize ac vents so part of the trip I was warm. Next time I'll check it when I get in car and if I have trouble like I did I'll ask for help.8.4 Very Good

I was glad that I could drive the car right in. The agent was knowledgeable and helpful about local matters. And I received the handout on e-toll fees there finally.Cons:
The location was a long distance from my home, and I would have chosen a different one had that seemed possible when I arranged the rental.10.0 Wonderful

The person who helped me was having a bad day. Real cranky. Or maybe customer service isn't his thing. Lost a customer.10.0 Wonderful
Aug 2020
Pros:
Loved that everything went according to plan and they even gave me a Camry, which was a wonderful upgrade compared with what I had ordered (the cheapest car possible)2.0 Poor
Jan 2019
Cons:
Cash option, I got my wallet stolen and car broke down, my job requires a car to work and since I don't have a car or my wallet, I couldn't rent the vehicle that I need it to at least do my job, cause they required a credit or debit card, I have plenty of money on my bank card!!!4.0 Mediocre
Sept 2016
Pros:
Pick up was smooth, car was as describedCons:
I returned the car early (after just 1 day instead of 1 week as originally planned). The clerk explained that the computer wasn't working so she would send me an email with the final receipt. When I checked my emails a few hours later, I saw that she emailed me the receipt and it was for a full week rental rather than prorated for my 1 day rental. I called the local agency right away but the call was transferred to a national customer service office, and the person I spoke with said he would correct the mistake and email me the corrected receipt. Bin ever received it, so the next day I called the local agency again and spoke to the clerk, who then made the correction and sent an email with the correct amount billed. So a lot of extra effort and time needed on my part to fix their mistake.Dollar
