Showed up and was told same day rental was null and void, never received rental car. This is a scam.

Made reservation over 24 hours in advance. Adjusted pick up time by 30 minutes the day we were to pick up the car. Because there was a change to the reservation, they said they could not honor a same-day reservation, despite the fact I made the original reservation the day before. If not for a helpful human at Enterprise, my fiance and I would have been stranded. Will be avoiding Thrifty at all costs and would advise you to do the same.

Do not allow same day rentals! Make sure you book at least a day in advance

My problem is with Kayak, not Enterprise. I requested a car from the airport. Kayak rerouted my request to a car rental 26 miles from the airport. luckily, Enterprise contacted me the day before so I could make other arrangements. Thumbs down, Kayak.

This site reserved me a rental and took part of payment even though actual rental location was out of cars. I got charged but was stranded without a vehicle. Won't use this site again nor will I encourage others too

The man that handled the rental was nice and professional but was put in a horrible position by having no help and was taking about 20 minutes with each client and there was a long line. Seemed that most of the passengers from my flight rented planes. It was a very long exhausting wait in line. There was no one there to show you how to even use the vehicle or do a walk around.

By the time I got to the counter no vehicles were available. Extremely bummed since I had a reservation.

They did not have a car available even though I made a reservation. They did have a sign that said reservation does guarantee a vehicle. Ridiculous

Nice car, staff was good. There was someone else’s gRbage in the trunk and I didn’t realize I had to have it back by noon on the last day I rented it so missed half the conference I flew down for

It was very difficult to find the office. It turns out it was inside a mall and there is no sign anywhere outside or inside the mall telling you where it is. We had to ask several workers at other shops in the mall - although we weren’t even sure it was even in there! Never had such a frustrating experience trying to rent a car. Once we found the counter everything went smoothly. The woman said they are not permitted to hang signage (!?)

When I rented the car I told them I wanted to pick it up at the Ashville Airport. When trying to pick up the vehicle I was told that my car was at a different location. I had to get a taxi which I had to pay $55.00 for. Also the car was dirty and the gas tank was not full. I was told that I could not drop the car off at the airport without paying $250.00 fee. Because of My early flight I was forced to dod this. My experiance with Kayak Sucked Big time. I would never use Kayak again.

I had a 9:00 pick and I waited a hour for them to come and open the place. So After the hour I went to enterprise and rented a car for cheaper and same day. I also had to get Apple to get my refund because I paid for insurance and after call several different people no one would give me my refund for the insurance. So Apple got my refund since I paid for the insurance with my apple credit card.

Drop off and pickup times were extremely limited. No after hours drop off so we ended up paying for an extra day rental just to be able to drop off a car during their hours.

Travelled 25 minutes to find out the reservation could not be kept and that 5 people were ahead of me in line to wait for cars to be returned. Canceled the reservation and went somewhere else. Guess it was on me for not calling ahead of time to verify availability?

Didn’t like having to downgrade a reservation made many month earlier. Didn’t like having to clean and vacuum the van myself when I picked it up.
