Chris at Enterprise, Beacon was my pick-up and drop-off connection. Chris has such a positive personality and knowledgeable about his business. He was quick with the transitions, got me in and out. Chris is DEFINITELY an asset to your store.

The backseat area could have been cleaner, the backs of the front seats were dirty, looked like children had there feet all over them, aside from that it was perfect.

Staff was very helpful and accommodating. I called up to meet us at the train station and they were there waiting and they got us to the train station on time when we left. Could not be happier with the responsiveness of the service.

Really easy pick up & drop off with friendly, helpful staff. Comfortable, clean car. The only downside was that the office closed at 12 on the day we wanted to drop off meaning we had to get back a couple of hours earlier than we would have done otherwise.

I was allowed to make the reservation, and was then phoned by a very rude rep. No apologies, no attempt to accommodate. “We do not have any cars available”. And hung up the phone. I will not use Hertz again.

Hertz employee was super helpful. She let me view the car before signing, and helped us review other options when we saw the trunk wasn't going to work with our 4 bags -- making special care to use any discounts we were eligible for through insurance, etc.

The location was closed. Out of business. I could not rent any car. Nobody let me know ahead of time that the location closed. I even had a confirmation the day before reminding me of my reservation.

Dingy office in Poughkeepsie. Drop-off charge for 1 day Poughkeepsie to Albany rental was excessive.

Price, speed at pickup, friendliness/attitude at counter, ability to leave my car on the property.

Not a big fan of the Dodge Journey as a vehicle.
