Mediocre|Oct 2022

I was expecting my car to be at the airport because that's what I put in the search criteria. When I got there they informed me the Hertz location was actually 20+ miles away so I had to spend an additional $100 in cab fares. The airport Hertz said I could tell them I wanted to return the car at the airport and that they would reimburse my cab expenses. When I got to the other Hertz location I was told I had to return it there and they couldn't adjust my bill because it was pre-paid. The Hertz guy said the car had 5/8th of a tank of gas (which it did) and to return it with the same amount of gas. I was returning the car with 3/4th tank of gas until I got out the rental contract from the glove compartment to put it and keys in drop box (location was closed on Sunday) and I noticed that they indicated it was full when I got it. Rather than have them charge me $9.99/gallon I went ahead and spent another $15 to fill it up. I wrote a note on the paperwork saying I would dispute the rental charge with my credit card company if they don't refund me $15 to my MasterCard.

Everything was perfect until I got phone calls saying I was overdue on returning my rental. I had dropped the car off in a local lot and put the key in the drop box prior to the due time on Monday, 9/5/22, the phone calls started on Wednesday. Still no emailed receipt from Hertz. Will never rent from them again. Saw online this has happened hundreds of times. Kayak should reconsider partnering with Hertz.

The vehicle smelled a little like smoke. Staff are really neutral (not friendly) in their interaction with customers. They just get the information and get the car.

The price of the rental was a most excellent value and saved me hundreds of dollars over trying to rent directly from the rental company. The vehicle was not the exact model I selected, but it was the same class and turned out to be absolutely wonderful for mileage. At the present five dollars a gallon price for gas, it cost me less than $70 to drive the VW Toureg from St Louis to Pittsburgh, and there was more than enough room for my personal belongings I took along the way. No problems other than highway construction all along Interstate 70 kept me from making the progress I was hoping to achieve, but I was able to make the deadline for turning the vehicle in

The shuttle was a very long wait. The line at the counter was an outrageously long wait. The car's stick kept missing the required position. The charges at the end exceeded the charges at the time of booking by $20.

I stood at the counter for almost an hour they needed some type of verification that I was me they needed to determine the bill etc. bad experience. At the other end they charged me for an extra hour which was $96. I did not have the car over 24 hours they did not consider the time change. It was a bad experience all around

The staff was nice. My first issue is maybe more with kayak. The price I rented the car for is not the price I paid when I got there, it was more. About $100 more. I've unfortunately had to rent with plenty of different companies lately and none of the others were like that and I always rent thru a 3rd party. Anyway I appreciated the fact that they were willing to accommodate my request for the type of car I didn't want but they picked the car and it was filthy and smelled terrible. Previously I've been able to pick the car and they were all clean at the least. The drop off was easy tho.

One of the tires had a slow leak where we had to put air in the tire every day We paid $2.00 every day to put air in the tire. It was stressful thinking we could have a flat tire. The car smelled like cigarette smoke and sometimes like marijuana. We would like to be reimbursed $28.00. Liann mobile 503-319-8466 Mike mobile 503-758-6724 Please call us back Thank You

We went to pick up the car and found that we were restricted to driving within the bordering states. We returned home and drove our own car on our trip. I had no idea that rental companies had that type of restriction in 2022.

Offered an upgraded model, but it appeared to be an older model. The vehicle also smelled of heavy smoke. I normally would have refused rental, but vehicles were limited during this time and everything was sold out. However, the customer service was excellent - friendly and willing to help.

We wanted a Tahoe, they gave us a 15 passanger dirty van. There was nobs missing or broken, large rips in the seats, crusted buggers all over the passanger side visor, and the driverside 2nd row vents. There was no spare tire. When we asked to change to a smaller vehicle the attendant stated the crack windshield was not ok to rent...when we returned they said he lied and they where rented. The return attendant was rude, and said rudly after hearing our complaint "well what do you want me to do about it". We will stick with Avis from now on.

Enterprise did not explain the drop off process. Since we were dropping off at 3am, their location was closed. I called their corporate location and they explained to me they their drop off location was at The Parking Spot, and that I needed to drop off the vehicle on the third floor and leave keys in drop box on first floor. There were absolutely zero signs signaling that this was a drop off location for a enterprise, and even on the third floor had zero indication that this is where Enterprise drop offs should be parked. Absolutely terrible customer service and I am lucky I did not miss my flight.

My husband and I traveled via Uber to Enterprise for a car we had reserved online. We never got the car because: We couldn't use a debit card(neither mine nor my husband's even though the cards are from the same bank); I don't drive but my husband has a valid license; when I called a utility company to text me a photo copy of my latest 'paid' gas bill; enterprise rejected it because his name wasn't on it; he does not have utility bills in his name. I offered to pay cash to no avail. Finally when we had exhausted our options, we were stranded and it was too late to try another rental agency so we caught another taxi home. Enterprise discriminates! I am seeking other horror stories about Enterprise too post.

The car itself was ok. Not cleaned very well, but pretty comfortable and good gas mileage. However, the pick up in St. Louis at the airport was one of my worst customer service experiences ever. It was incredibly slow and inefficient. The employees did not care one way or another if they got customers out of there or not. We waited over an hour for a car and didn’t get the car we reserved. Only because we kept asking did we end up leaving when we did. I could go on, but it will just be more negative critiques.

Pick up & Drop off was as near perfect as possible.

I was not thrilled with the vehicle but that was NOT Alamo's fault. It was the make and model of the pickup. (I would not buy this truck). I think the exit of lot could be marked better but it was not horrible.

Nice sized SUV (Ford Escape) given I was hauling my 1-year-old around along with several others. The experience with Alamo was very nice as they got me in and out quickly which I cannot say enough positive things about given I was lugging a baby, car seat, pack n' play, backpack, and diaper bag all by myself.

Nothing really. GPS built-in would have been nice but my smartphone wedged near the dash did the trick.

Pick up and drop off were really quick.

The lady at front desk provided a really bad customer service. She had earphone on one side while talking with me. She really did not want to work at all. I have never confronted this level of bad customer service.
