Car was great and clean! I had to use a rental because my flight from Newark to Montreal was canceled unfortunately I could not drop off the vehicle in an Enterprise in Canada so I had to drop off my family in Montreal and drive the car back to Plattsburgh and have my family pick me up with our car. It would have been much simpler to leave the vehicle in Canada

Newark International Airport is no sparkling new facility. The rental car locations require using the airport train system, and signage to find it isn't all that visible. The Hertz location there pretty much matches the whole airport itself, but considering we booked last-minute, arrived late, and very late at night, the counter agent was pleasant and helpful, making our experience as good as it could be. 👍

We reserved a minivan months in advance and paid in full when we made the reservation. This was to drive to Florida from NYC with our 3 kids. When we went to pick up they had no minivans, and tried to give us a Ford Explorer (too small for 5 of us with luggage and 24 hour drive). We said no to Ford Explorer and they offered Chevy Tahoe, but for $45 more per day a total of $400 more. We complained via email, and they offered a $50 credit on our next rental. Horrible. They didn’t have what we reserved and paid in full for months in advance, so they charged us 400 extra dollars to get a vehicle of comparable size.

My reservation was at 6am- I didn’t walk out with a car until 7:55am. The staff lady was the rudest rep I’ve had in years. And I saw her be this way with multiple people. Was given electric car which I did not book. Then how am I supposed to find time to sit and charge it when I got it almost two hours late due to it needing to be charged. Worst rental experience

Only 3 people working with lines out the door. Took over 2 hours to rent a car. Majority of the issues were people had issues with not having credit card, or bank denying claim. Instead of having them step aside and take them after, they allowed the people to take 20 plus minutes to call their bank. Line would have moved much faster if they had people step aside and take the next person. Staff were rude. Would not recommend. Most other agencies did not have any lines.

I was pleasantly surprised at Sixt. I had not heard of them before and I had previous challenges with other discount rentals. This rental was pre-booked and well-organized to receive the car once I arrived. The car was clean and drove beautifully. Finding the return lot was a bit more challenging. More signs would be helpful, but I did find it on my first drive around. Overall a pleasant experience. FYI: It's quite a distance to get to the new Terminal A at Newark. Expect at least a 15-20 minute walk/shuttle after returning the car.

Very bad pickup at Newark. Staff was rude and did not want to spend a few minutes to explain the insurance. Pickup was friendly. I will not book on Kayak in the future because it is not well integrated with Sixt's system.
