It took a while to finally get a car but once we got it everything was good. The person that dropped me off was very nice and made up for the hassle.

We were expecting a midsize vehicle, but when we arrived all they had was a minivan. I was concerned about it getting terrible gas mileage and being bigger than we needed, but it worked out alright. It was comfortable for the 2 weeks we had it and the gas wasn't as good as we would have liked, but we enjoyed the space and comfort for the amount of time we spent on the road.

I reserved a car online, and flew 800 miles . But when i arrived they told me i was not eligible to rent because of a deductible in 2004. Something I still have no knowledge of. Also poor customer service in Huntsville. Alabama.

The Lin’s seemed to move slow when I was picking up the car. There was only one person in front of me and it took a good 10 minutes to get me through the line. I’ve always thought car rental companies should pay attention to that metric. The last thing someone wants to be doing after a long airline flight is wait in a slow moving line.

Nothing.

The vehicles in my area were advertised falsely. When I arrived to Alamo to pick up the vehicle I found on Kayak, they told me no cars had been available for weeks and had no idea why I found otherwise. Kayak should follow this up. These types of issues can create unnecessary stress for travelers.

I liked the gas mileage of the car.

Agent at counter advised they did not have the full-size car I ordered, she had no idea of the different insurance coverages offered and what each one covered, told me to return the car with a gas receipt to prove I bought the gas that would be in the car, had to walk at least 1/4 mile to reach the car I rented, the rented car was dirty and had a service light on along with a low tire pressure light, I was advised there “may or may not” be someone there to receive my car upon return so I was to fill out the mileage, gas, condition report at drop off. I could go on but why bother, no more AVIS for me - very unprofessional.

Pick up and drop off was good. But trying to communicate with Avis call center was the worst. Of 4 or 5 reps I talked with, their english language was terrible and, with 2 exceptions, they didn't do what they said they would do. VERY frustrating

Budget charged me $50.00 for a car they would not give me because I don't have a credit card. They had no problem charging my debit card for the money though. It's absolutely ridiculous since most people that would rent from a car company called "Budget" most likely don't major credit cards. I want my money back.

I made a reservation a week and a half or so before I got to the airport, I needed the car so I could continue on my way when I landed in Huntsville. When I got there they had no cars, said they ran out. I had to find somewhere local to stay last minute. Which was a huge inconvenience at 10pm. it's bad enough that you can make a reservation and somehow they give the car to someone else, it probably would have been better if they had cancelled my reservation so I wasn't landing with the expectation that I was going to pick up a car.

The online reservation was easy, the airport pickup was easy, the people working at the counter were very pleasant and friendly, which, considering the sometimes less-than-pleasant people they often have to deal with, was wonderful. Drop off couldn't have been easier.

When I arrived to pick up the car, the car I reserved was available. I was informed that I could accept a two-car downgrade or an upgrade to a 15 passager van. Needless-to-say, neither was acceptable. It took nearly 45 minutes to convince the agent to request a car trade with one of the other ren

trading a car with one of the other rental car agencies, in order to honor the rental agreement should have been the 1st option. I was eventually given a Malibu instead of the premium vehicle that was listed on my reservation. Additionally, the car's gas tank was only 3/4 full. Better service.

They upgraded me to a larger vehicle for no additional charge.

I returned it early before office hours. They billed me $229 which was more than the rental fee for an extra driver. But corrected it after my complaint.

Staff was helpful at counter. (Hertz counter) Vehicle was very clean.

No one meets you at drop off so you have to guess where to leave vehicle. I carried my paperwork in to the Dollar Office and gave it to rental employee. I was asked if email receipt was okay, which it was.

Hated everything . I was left without a car in Huntsville, Alabama.

The Dollar counter was closed. A sign referred me to Hertz’s counter. The sign said they were closed at 5pm. My flight was delayed. There was no alternative. So, no car. Disaster.

After arriving at Hertz counter to pickup minivan I had booked, was told they had no minivan to rent. I don't think you should be able to book a vehicle on kayak only to find out upon arrival to pick it up that there is no vehicle available. Not sure who is at fault here... kayak or Hertz. Either way a bad experience when you make a reservation only to find out that reservations don't mean a thing.
