2.0 MediocreJan 1 2020
Cons: Pick-up was scheduled for 3 p.m. on Christmas Eve. We arrived at the downtown Tampa facility at around 3:50 due to a flight delay only to find the office closed, with s note on the door that it would reopen on 12/26. Fortunately, we were staying with family on 12/24 and 12/25 so didn’t need the car. However, when I showed up at 8 a.m. on 12/26 to pick up the car for a trip to Fort Myers, I was told that there were no cars available at any Alamo facility in the Tampa metro area. The manager snd staff made no efforts to help, Fortunately, I was able to find a car at Hertz, albeit at 2.5x the rate I’d reserved at Alamo. Terrible experience.

10.0 ExcellentApr 20 2021
Pros: Smooth and fast transaction.
2.0 MediocreApr 20 2021
Cons: Enterprise accepted my reservation for a Sunday return to a location that is not open on Sundays. I walked to the Dropbox to find that “due to security issues” they do not accept drop offs after hours and if you drop the keys, you are liable for anything that happens to the vehicle. My flight out was before they opened on Monday. I spent 90 minutes on the phone trying to find someone who could tell me what to do and ultimately, no one had an answer for me. National chain submitted a ticket with the branch I was using in HOPES that they wouldn’t charge me if I returned the car to the airport the next day. Apparently the national brand has no way of contacting branch managers in instances like this and they also don’t have authority to waive fees on behalf of stores using their name. The entire experience was extremely inconvenient. Luckily I didn’t miss a flight because of it but as a young female renting a car alone, I did NOT appreciate sitting in a car in a bad part of town (bad enough for them to blame no drop offs on security issues) for 90 minutes. It has been 2 days since Sunday and I still have not received a call regarding my experience, though I’ve left multiple messages. I’ve had great experiences with Enterprise in the past but the lack of competence I experienced from the team this past weekend will cause me to take my business elsewhere going forward. I know mistakes happen but a large chain should have a much better internal communication system and plan for things like this. Very disappointing.
2.0 MediocreApr 19 2021
Pros: It was ugly and stressful experience. Everything could and should be better.Cons: Everything
4.0 OkayApr 12 2021
Pros: With some hesitation my issue was resolved.Cons: My rental car smelled of marijuana and after waiting for an hour I asked for a discount instead of waiting even longer for them to get another car in. After leaving and having the car closed up for an hour, the smell was unbearable. I was not comfortable driving my children around in that vehicle. After several phone calls, they were able to replace my vehicle. I was very disappointed that I lost almost a day of my vacation.
2.0 MediocreApr 11 2021
Cons: The branch was not open when we were scheduled to pick up the car. The branch was closed when we returned the car.
10.0 ExcellentApr 7 2021
Pros: Yes, The staff was helpful under difficult circumstances with high rental capacityCons: I had to wait about 1 hour for a car due to spring break.
10.0 ExcellentApr 5 2021
Pros: Staff were great, very fast check out process and check in.Cons: Nothing.
4.0 OkayApr 3 2021
Cons: The car could have been cleaned better. Picked it up Friday afternoon and it smelt so bad of pot that the windows had to be down driving it and had to buy air fresheners an let the car sit for few days before we could drive it. Tried to get it traded out but had no replacements so we were told there was nothing that could be done.
8.0 ExcellentApr 1 2021
Pros: Car seemed like smoke. Caused everyone to cough.Cons: Cleaning.
2.0 MediocreMar 30 2021
Pros: Staff were friendly and politeCons: I rented a full size and they cave me a economy. The car felt unsafe as it would shake while driving on the highway. They gave a car with half full gas tank instead of full tank trying to get gas money out of the customer. There is no way to return right at half full point. I returned with 3/4 full and spent money out of my own pocket.

Pros: Easy drop off
10.0 ExcellentApr 9 2021
Pros: Very nice and clean car. Drop off went smoothly.Cons: The pick up counter was slammed the day we arrived. We had a long wait. They know ahead who is renting and pick up times and flights, they should have been ready and able to surge. They only had two staff checking people in and we spent more than 30 minutes waiting in line.

Pros: Friendly staff, affordable, clean new carCons: Nothing
8.0 ExcellentApr 7 2021
Pros: Good service at pick upCons: Sign directions for after hours drop off could have been better. Also, windows needed cleaning
10.0 ExcellentApr 4 2021
Pros: very easy. car provided was better than the size requestedCons: went to fill up gas tank as we were returning the car & the gas cap said "diesel". this was our first time adding gas this trip & we knew we had used half a tank. however the tank would not accept diesel & it spilled out on the tire & my feet. the station attendant was flustrated but also saw the writing on the cap so advised us not to add "regular". we explained our situation when we returned the half empty car & the check-in person was very empathetic; she even took a photo of the gas cap. i hope they straightened that out before the next person has the same experience. wrong gas cap?
2.0 MediocreApr 3 2021
Pros: I was unable to pick up the rental car because the driver had to stay home with a Covid infection. I was also unable to change drivers due to going through a second partyCons: I was unable to get any assistance from Priceline or Sixt when the driver had to stay home because he was sick. Priceline said SIXT had to deal with it and SIXT said Priceline had to deal with it. So we took an Uber which turned out cheaper and way easier!
2.0 MediocreApr 3 2021
Pros: NothingCons: Having the rental agency be open when our flight was late. They closed and we had to go get a taxi ride to our hotel for $120 extra cost plus go back the next day for another $120 taxi ride. Pick and drop times the agency was closed for business.

Cons: The compact suv is smaller than a sedan. The description of the car is way off forcing you to upgrade once you get there.
4.0 OkayFeb 16 2021
Pros: I waited in line for an hour at the Tampa airport. Every other company had no line. We received our agreement with very basic/vague directions to retrieve our car. It had been smoked in. I am done with Thrifty.Cons: Everything.
2.0 MediocreFeb 16 2021
Pros: Car was fine once we got itCons: Way overpriced, no value for money spent. TPA rental car a complete mess. Thrifty shares counter with Hertz and Dollar. Only 2 people on staff to handle multiple arrivals at 10p. Wait was 30mins in line to get processed and then another 20mins to get a car at the garage. Didn’t need to waste an hour after a long flight and crying kids. Return was no better, no staff at return just a sign to leave keys in car. Would have been more tolerable had I not paid $640 for a 4 day rental. Like I said zero value for what I paid

Pros: Pickup staff was great. There was only 1 dropoff staff for 20 people, she told us to just leave the cars and go to the train. I still have not received a final receipt.Cons: I should have received a final receipt to review
2.0 MediocreApr 18 2021
Pros: Nothing.Cons: The car offered did not hold the luggage advertised. I was offered one other vehicle, a minivan, which I did not want, and charged extra for an “upgrade”. Awful to drive, extremely uncomfortable on my back (which is why I rented a luxury car to begin with. Staff wasn’t interested in customer satisfaction.

10.0 ExcellentApr 4 2021

Pros: Vehicle size we needed was available, the entire process was quick and easy, everyone was very helpful and friendlyCons: Nothing, it was great! When we were assigned our vehicle, we went to the stall to pick it up, but found out that the vehicle we were assigned was also assigned to someone else (Hertz, Thrifty and Dollar all share a system) just a fluke. The employees were extremely helpful and found us another vehicle quickly and it all worked out perfectly!

Pros: They did not have a car available even though I had a reservation. Customer service told me "too bad"
6.0 GoodApr 17 2021
Pros: Staff at reservation counter was not helpful. Told us about two cars to go and pick from. When we went to find them there were no such cars. We were tired from traveling and were walking around trying to find cars that weren't there. thankfully the staff member in the garage kiosk helped us.Cons: It seemed the staff at reservation desk had no idea what cars were really available.
2.0 MediocreApr 17 2021
Cons: Location listed is not near airport as myself and three others found out. Had to pay $60 to Uber to get there each way
2.0 MediocreApr 16 2021
Pros: There was no car available even though I prepaid and I have to wait 7-10 days for a refund. I was left scrambling to find a car at the last minute.Cons: Have a car available.
2.0 MediocreApr 13 2021
Pros: NothingCons: So, I made this deal through Kayak, with pickup scheduled for noon Saturday. The app didn't bother to tell me the location closed at noon Saturday. I arrived right at noon, the place was closed. It's spring break in Florida, no cars available from any vendor. I'm on a business trip. Fortunately I was able to take the family car, but my wife was stuck without a car to get to her chemo infusion.
2.0 MediocreApr 12 2021
Pros: NothingCons: They could have not overbooked by 15 cars and given me a car and not been so rude about it with no options but to wait there for 6 hours waiting for a car to come in
4.0 OkayApr 11 2021
Pros: The staff was friendly.Cons: I could have revived the car we paid for which we did not. The car also was filled by a smoker before we rented it so it smelled terrible. It was not dis-infected at all before we rented. The wait for the car when we arrived to Tampa was very long. The car was filthy inside and out.
4.0 OkayApr 11 2021
Pros: Appreciate the size of the vehicle (we ended up getting a van, although we rented a Nissan Path Finder)Cons: We thought we rented from the airport, and the location did not offer any type of transportation to and from the airport. We ended up spending over $100 in Uber fees. The location itself is also very dirty. We had an early flight and they offered no drop key. They don't open until 9:00 am which is not convenient for early travelers if they don't have drop off service.
2.0 MediocreApr 11 2021
Cons: The employees did not show up to work... when went back to the airport per hertz customer service rep and spoke to the hertz counter there, the manager Shu, told me oh well nothing I can do... went back to the off airport next morning it wa sto be open until 12 and at 10 there was still no agent at the counter... hertz did nothing to help ... will never book through hertz in future , would rather walk
2.0 MediocreApr 11 2021
Pros: Awful experience. Nothing.Cons: Everything. I rented a 7 passenger SUV and they didn’t haven any when I got there so they gave me a minivan. The key FOB didn’t work so I couldn’t lock or unlock the doors. The back windshield wiper was broken so I couldn’t clean the back windshield and when I got in the van there were old meat wrappers in the middle console. It was a horrible experience for my family vacation.

4.0 OkayApr 1 2021
Pros: My Representative was pleasant.Cons: Only reason I ended up at ACE is because they were the only one that had a car for the time period I needed a car. They the reps are super hard sell on all the up charges when just the base rental fee was high to begin with. Not sure I would call a Nissan Versa a mid-sized car, but that was the 'similar' sized car that I had to take. Would be the last choice again.
8.0 ExcellentMar 13 2021
Cons: I feel like the customer service person kept adding on extra and by the time I was done my bill was over $500 and when I booked it was around $250. She tried to add insurance until I caught that. Then told me there were tolls everywhere so then added on for tolls. I didn’t hit one toll booth. I just get money money back for tolls because it’s a scams. You would b able to tell if I hit a toll. I will not use this service only because the customer service was sneaky. I don’t like that and the toll booth is a scam.

Pros: The price that I got when I first made the reservationCons: If you guys could include in the total booking fee the Ensurance fees as deposits needed on arrival.
2.0 MediocreJan 25 2021
Cons: They could have had a car for me. Used kayak booking site and it does not allow you to adjust the time of rental pickup. Got there at 10a and kayak set our pickup for 12p. I was told they didn’t have a car in the size I ordered. They did have a larger car for 3x the price I agreed to.
2.0 MediocreDec 30 2020
Pros: Nothing I couldn’t get the car. Had to pick one up at a competitor.Cons: Required utility bill to rent and didn’t know until I got there. First time I’ve ever heard of such a thing. Then they limited mileage and said I couldn’t leave the state. Non of which was disclosed until I got there.

2.8 MediocreNov 14 2020
Pros: Checkout guy was nice and easyCons: Provided compact suv instead of midsize. I tried to get other car they offered me to wait another 30-40 min. Called customer service next day and the guy was rude and combative, keep saying dude its midsize per their grade, we are not dealers. even the Wiki and google says its compact. It was mitsubishi outlander SPORT. Our Friends, who we travelled with were at other rental, they were upgraded because they didn’t have the car they reserved. I was not asking for upgrade I was asking for the car I paid for. Not happy. Decided to let it go and enjoy vacation. Do not recommend this particular location. Not sure about ace in general but will avoid them in the future. Never had this issue with other rentals.

4.8 OkayOct 28 2020
Cons: We had reserved a midsize suv and ended up with a choice between a full.size suv which my husband did not want or a compact. The compact was a Nissan Sentra which actually was an okay car but would just like to get the cat that we had reserved months ago! Just annoying... will pay extra at hertz I guess for future rentals.

Pros: Once we actually got to a staff member (after waiting in line for over an hour because the Payless, Avis, and Budget counters were all combined), he was very polite and helpful. The car was new and it was very nice. Drop off was an ease.Cons: A warning at least would have been nice about the lack of staffing or the possible extended wait times. The fact that I set a pick up time and expected to go to the counter to get my car, but waited in line for over an hour instead was frustrating to say the least. I have appreciated an offered substantial upgrade or refund for the inconvenience.

9.2 ExcellentOct 14 2019
Pros: The staff member in Tampa was terrific. We wanted to rent a Jeep Cherokee, and he went out of his way to ensure we got one. Thanks!Cons: The car was overall very clean, but there was a bit of sand in the back seat of the vehicle. I suppose that's to be expected since it was Florida and beach season. At any rate, it didn't bother us in the slightest and the experience was great.

2.4 MediocreMar 31 2019

2.0 MediocreApr 5 2021
Pros: We thought we had a reservation for the evening when we arrived. We received an email that said if we didn’t pick the car up by noon we would lose it. We emailed customer service to see if they could assist us. The responses were short and stated reasons why it was our fault with no effort to help us with a rental.Cons: A reminder email to confirm our reservation and customer service that tried to go above and beyond vs the experience we had.
2.0 MediocreMar 27 2021
Pros: Nothing I was totally ripped off o got there and they said that because I wasn’t there by 12 noon my reservation was cancelled my car rental went from $246 to $611 and I was also told that there were tolls to where I was going I never went through a toll in all 6 days. The place was a SCAM!Cons: Maybe if your going to cancel someone’s reservation give them a phone call and also honor the original price I paid instead of nickel and dimming me.

4.0 OkayFeb 22 2021
Pros: Nothing.Cons: Don't attempt to reserve a car with this company online unless you will be picking it up during "business hours." This is NOT shown anywhere during the reservation process on Kayak, but you'll see it in the confirmation email you get after booking. My flight was arriving later at night when Executive Car Rental was already closed. I called ahead to see if I could make other arrangements to pick it up after hours and they said no. I asked if I could pick it up the next morning when they were open again and they refused, even when I said I would pay for the extra day of reservation when they were closed. I asked if I could modify my reservation to just pick the car up the next morning and they said they were "sold out." Basically, they wanted to rent the car I had already reserved to someone else at a much higher price (I saw the prices increase by $100-200 for the days I had already booked). Lousy company - book earlier with a bigger chain to avoid the hassle and stress.
10.0 ExcellentFeb 6 2021
Pros: The staff was great! I received a call the day of telling me how to find their rental slot once at the airport (which was a little confusing if you've never been there) and so was helpful. They were very pleasant and did everything possible to help us in the transaction.Cons: We purchased our auto insurance through Kayak only to be told a the counter that they did not accept their insurance and had to use theirs. Theirs was more expensive and then we had to call and cancel the insurance we had previously purchased.
8.0 ExcellentJan 1 2021
Pros: The gentleman at the Executive counter was very helpful and patient. He also was willing to listen to my concerns. He also gave us an upgrade. Great price!Cons: We booked the car through Priceline. We received a great deal for a compact car. Our flight got changed to a later time and we were going to pick up the car 2 hours later. The car rental home office told us they could not guarantee the car for two hours later and there might be a possibility we would have to re-book another car at a higher price when we arrived. I was willing to pay for the rental ahead of time and they said it could not be done. Very confusing and annoying.

2.0 MediocreApr 18 2021
Pros: Nothing, no customer service AT ALL!!!!!!!! It was wrong location pick up instead at the Tampa airport, the airport AVIS rep offer me the same car for the DOUBLE PRICE!!!! When I went to the pick up location, spend $40.00 on Uber, who is going to compensate my inconvenience?, the location was closed. When I called the next day, the service rep told me that car was not available and hang up the phone. Will NEVER use your service in the future and posted the same response on all the social media. Your service is horrible and the worth it could be.Cons: Provide the customer service and about customers.
2.0 MediocreApr 18 2021
Pros: Yes, but charged 150 extra for additional 2.5 hours. I was stuck in traffic..Cons: Never rent from Budget.
10.0 ExcellentApr 18 2021
Pros: Very friendly staff at drop off and pick upCons: The car had dents in it that no one discussed and I was afraid I would be blamed.
6.0 GoodApr 17 2021
Pros: Staff was good the wait was very longCons: Price way too high!
2.0 MediocreApr 3 2021
Pros: The location called one hour before the car was to be picked up an canceled the reservation. Left a voicemail. No attempt to find at another location, give a voucher for another trip. I called back a couple times and eventually gave up and decided to enjoy my vacation. Ride shares were scarce and it was extremely inconvenient. First night we didn’t have food. Very stressful experience.Cons: Having a car and fulfilling the order.
6.0 GoodMar 20 2021
Cons: Waited on line too too long
8.0 ExcellentNov 3 2020
Pros: Easy to reserve and pickupCons: There was no damage declaration form and I was concerned because the car had a moderately large sized dent on the front pillar over the driver door when we picked it up. There were no false charges or anything, just made me a little worried.
6.0 GoodJul 17 2020
Pros: The staff was nice, the car was good. The turn in was great.Cons: The pick-up was very slow, the car I reserved was not available, it took an excessive amount of time to place me into a vehicle that would work, but the internal space available and the gas mileage were considerably worse than what I requested. The car was clean, but not fully cleared.
2.0 MediocreApr 28 2020
Pros: The price was great for the 1st few days.Cons: Would have been nice to know up front that it costs an extra $10 to extend your rental agreement...would have been nice to know upfront it costs an extra $10 to change drop off location. It would have been critical to know my rental price would jump from $17 per day to $50 per day because I had to extend my rental agreement due to my car not being repaired yet. I am extremely dissatisfied.
2.0 MediocreFeb 7 2020
Cons: The agreement was not honored, I had to find another company.

Not a good experiencePros: NoneCons: In the website it is saying that you rent the car and drop it at the airport which is not true.We need to wait for a shuttle 30 min to take us to the place they have the car and there it took almost an hour till we finded a nice clean car.
10.0 ExcellentNov 2 2016
Good price.Pros: The price was the lowest. The car was clean inside. The people were very friendly.Cons: It was awkward getting from the airport to the car rental but they were helpful in the process.
6.0 GoodNov 1 2016

9.6 ExcellentNov 1 2016
Cons: All
7.2 GoodSep 19 2016
Pros: Office Staff was friendly. Car was in good condition that I received.Cons: It's a long procedure to get the car. If there had been any kind of line it could've taken hours. Even in drop off. There's no need for a paper receipt if you're emailed it as well. The bus for the airport couldn't be bothered to wait for me to drop the keys. The guys who maintain cars and drive shuttle were not friendly. We seemed to be a bother.
4.8 OkaySep 7 2016
Long wait. Way to far drop off and pick up. ReservPros: Car was ok. But lot of scratched outside. Had to document carefully myself so that don't get charged.Cons: Reservation got cancelled due took showing up little bit later than 2 hours. Long wait to get there car. Way far pick up and drop off location. Leaves adequate times for drop off.
5.2 OkaySep 6 2016
Cons: The checking agent was rude and appeared very unhelpful. we waited for over 20 minutes because no one was at the office at 6 am. There was quite obvious damage to the car door which was not logged previously by the company- if we weren't thorough, we could have missed it in the dark and be liable.
8.4 ExcellentAug 21 2016
Good servicePros: I like that person was helping me is very knowledgeable and helpfulCons: I didn't like your office or you called the waiting room was dirty and messy it gives you a not comfortable feeling about the place.you should look into it because busses is based on the first minute of impression..my name Joseph eddine
6.8 GoodAug 14 2016
Cons: Not enough staff.
4.4 OkayJul 10 2016
Rip OffPros: The price was right going in. But renter beware! The will find a way to gouge you!Cons: I picked the car up at 3am in a poorly lit parking lot. Afterward u noticed some pre-existing damage on the car. After several 20 minute dropped calls u spoke with the manager Sam. He interrupted me as I was explaining the damage on the car. No problem! Just let them know when you return the car! Complete lie! I go to return the car. I explained the situation. The guys first response: Sam is not here! Fill out this accident report! When I told him I was going to write a poor review he just laughed! Eventually Sam came over and said I signed off on the car so therefore I was responsible! I intend to pursue this through the media!

10.0 ExcellentMar 13 2018
New rental company experiencePros: Picked up at the airport in one of the rental cars instead of a shuttle bus, and got to talk to the driver about the company and procedure while going from the airport to the rental location nearby. I hadn't done an all electronic type of rental before. They made it easy. Once you got the app loaded it was easy enough. Nice clean new Audi A4. Also a drop off at the airport, upon return, in the car that you had rented, so you don't have to move your bags or ride in a bus back to the airport. Very convenient to get dropped right at the curb by your airline departure location. Great experience. Helpful people from end to end. I'd use them again.Cons: Loading the app on my iphone was a bit of a pain. I couldn't get the pages on the app to scroll correctly so I could fill out the forms. I ultimately had to fill in the needed information to sign up via my laptop. Once I got through that it was easy. And with the app loaded I won't have to go through that again.

8.0 ExcellentMar 16 2021
Pros: The staff was very helpful and the office was clean. They came out and helped me hook up my blue tooth when I asked. Very friendly.Cons: My car was dirty and smelled pretty bad from a smoker. They did give it a quick wash for me, but the smell lasted for my whole trip.
6.0 GoodNov 28 2018
Cons: Car was supposed to be at airport in Tampa. Find out some how my reservation was for Tampa 5 miles away. Had to take a taxi from airport to car rental place 10 mins away. And wanted to charge us 160$ at airport when we booked for 40$. And this car is not in good running condition.
2.0 MediocreOct 14 2018
Cons: I was not informed when I made the reservation that a major credit card was required. I had ample funds on my debit card but it would not be accepted.
5.2 OkayJun 22 2017
Very easy process, very expensive fee for gasPros: The drop off process was fast.Cons: I felt like I was rushed out of my car and could have left personal belongings behind easily. Also, the gas fee is overly expensive and I was charged $60 for a tank when the current gas prices would have allowed for a $40 fill up.
9.2 ExcellentMar 19 2017
Friendly and fast servicePros: Friendly staff, easy pick up, clean vehicle.Cons: nothing
5.6 OkayMar 15 2017
Mixed experiencePros: Loved the car I was rented. Newer model. Very clean.Cons: Phone number to National did not work so unable to stay in touch when I needed to talk to someone in the office. Car not ready when I arrived (person helping me went and cleaned it himself, so that was helpful), printer not working so no paperwork to take with me. I put in TPA for airport and was given an offsite location. I thought I was renting from airport and went there first. Big disruption to my plans. Ultimately my fault for not paying attention to the address, but also very confusing process that I was clear I wanted airport.
10.0 ExcellentFeb 28 2017
Pros: Fantastic customer service, easy check in process and they had the exact vehicle I needed.

Cons: No one stayed late to allow those flight delays to come to pick up their rental. No one answered the phone when we tried to call numerous times. The price was outrageously high.
8.0 ExcellentApr 19 2021
Pros: The shuttle was good and the drivers very friendly.Cons: I was a few hours late from my reservation time, so it expired. I had to pay a reinstatement fee to pick up the car when I arrived, which is a new thing for me. I would have expected a little more flexibility in the reservation.
6.0 GoodApr 13 2021
Pros: Liked the rogue. good gas mileage.Cons: had to put air in tires twice.
6.0 GoodApr 10 2021
Pros: Car was nice and clean and return was easy.Cons: Our pick up was quite challenging in part because of airport signage, but primarily because Easirent was poorly staffed at the time we arrived - around 8 pm on a Saturday night.
8.0 ExcellentApr 8 2021
Pros: It was a good check in and a quick drop offCons: The cleanness of the car inside
2.0 MediocreApr 7 2021
Pros: Nothing: They left us stranded at airport.Cons: We called before our flight left because we were worried about our late arrival, 9:30 PM. They said the shuttle would be there until 10 PM and they had our name and said there were three others coming in at that time. We arrived at the shuttle area around 9:50. No Shuttle. They would not answer the phone. At 10 PM the phone went right to voice mail. The officer at the sight said at 9:30 they crowed in a group not even promising a car when they arrived at the off-site lot. We had to rent at double the price.
6.0 GoodApr 5 2021
Pros: The staff were friendly and helpful, the car was in good condition.Cons: This agency is not at the airport. We had to wait for a shuttle to pick us up. We also had to take a Lyft to the airport on our return because the agency wasn’t open early enough. They also didn’t have our car ready when we arrived so we had to wait about 45 minutes.
2.0 MediocreApr 3 2021
Cons: This is the only car rental place where you need to show proof of insurance. Most people don’t carry insurance cards with them. The car we got had dents all over it. It was older so we didn’t have the apple car play and it had crank type windows. We were going to have to pay an $75 for my wife to be a driver for it. Most companies do not charge extra for a spouse to be a driver. In front of the building there is a raised step that’s not marked. My wife tripped and fell and ended up cut and bruised. The lady waiting on us was argumentative. Oh and the car smelled like marijuana on the inside. We will never use Easirent again.
4.0 OkayApr 2 2021
Pros: The car was clean inside, but a mess outside. It was an were model and ran well mechanically. Prices were still high, but much more reasonable than other companies quotes at the time.Cons: The outside had not been cleaned and had splash marks along the bottom and federa as well as the windshield. The rear quarter panel had a rub mark on it from a collision and it was misaligned with the rest of the body. The turn signal was cracked and had been repaired with epoxy. The wait to get our car was ridiculously long. There were 2 agents working and a room full of people to be helped. They did everything including bring the cars around front of the building. It slowed things down. One computer was not working well, and had to be restarted twice, but even that didn’t fix the issue. So I had to ask the agent to switch computers to get us processed. I understand that we were there during a busy time, because that is the only reason I booked with them in the first place; there were no cars available at the airport, or in the location we were staying.
2.0 MediocreApr 1 2021
Pros: Shuttle driver was nice and professional.Cons: Vastly understaffed. Clerks unprofessional. Tried to demand we purchase their insurance then demanded to see our insurance policy. Cars not properly serviced. Gave us a compact even though we paid for a full size and said “you are welcome to wait for a full size but it could take a few hours for one to come in.” Car smelled like smoke even though I asked for a nonsmoking car. I could go on.
