Intially I saw the reviews of Avis on google and was really worried that I chose the wrong rentals, but to my surprise I actually had a good experience. I pre checked in and was able to pick my car in 10 mins, which was very convenient.

I received a hybrid that had less than 10 perfect battery life. I did not enjoy the car for the entire first day of rental because I was afraid to drive it due to the battery life being so low. I had to find someone willing yo place an app on their phone and then drive out of the way to locate a plug in that I had to pay money to charge the vehicle up before I could comfortably or safely drive anywhere. The battery was not self charging as I drove it and there were no instructions on charging time,location ,etc

Staffs were friendly; however, the lines at the pick-up location were very confusing. I wasn't sure which line was for people who had reservation. I figured it out in the end by asking people who were in lines. So, better signs for directing the customers to the right place would be a plus. Again, all the staffs were very friendly and helpful, and I really appreciate it (I was with 3 kids waiting for the car at around 1 am). Drop off was easy. Again, staff were very helpful. I would recommend Avis.

I arrived in time at 2 AM to pick up my car to be told by the staff that they no longer have any cars and there is that there is nothing that they can do for us!!!!!!!! My wife and i were left stranded with 4 luggage and had to take an Uber for $400 to our home. You will be hearing from my lawyer. Tarik

We arrived 30 min before their closing time, but the entire staff was gone. We called and walked around and could not find anyone to give us our car. We had to go to Alamo to rent a car at 1 AM so we could drive a couple more hours to our destination. When talking with someone on the customer service line, they said there was nothing they could do and suggested we just take an Uber (at our own expense). I will never rent from Budget again.

First, the location was terrible. We were using gps and our Uber driver was doing his best but it is hidden out of sight. The address sends you to the drop off rather than the pick up. Second, when we arrived at 9 am the waiting area was full and then we were told there were NO cars!! I had made my reservation months in advance. All the following days of our trip had reservations that could no longer be cancelled. People were getting increasingly disgruntled. There were only 2 employees to check folks in. Slowly vehicles started drifting in and we finally got our car by 11. But this should never happen!! On a positive note, we had reserved an SUV but were given a mini van for the same price and we enjoyed it and it provided the space we needed.

I was overcharged approximately $370 for the insurance because it didn't specify that it would be 3 times the amount when not purchasing online Windows weren't clean, windshield wipers were old and could barely see when it rained at night. The car was obviously in a major accident as it looked like it was painted with spray cans Plus it had 59,500 miles on it Horrible car and company I have never given such a bad review on a company like this one in my life

Great value for the price. Staff assures that you are getting the best value and were very kind. The car was in great condition. The only thing I would improve is more staff for times with more pick up and drop off. Other renters were very impatient and unkind to staff who were working very efficiently. There were no clear locations to park cars being dropped off which created more work for the staff. Otherwise, excellent.

First of all dollar wouldn’t honor my same-day reservation confirmed through your site. That’s problem number one. Secondly I was offered an upgrade which was appreciated so I could actually get a car, but I was provided a car that did not have a sufficient charge.

Was allowed to rent a car past the time that the rental car company was open. Flight coming in was delayed so I hopped on different flight to this location, planning on renting a car to drive back home. Ended up being stranded in JFK for a night as I was never able to rent a car and all other places were booked. Had I known renting a car here wasn't possible I probably wouldn't have made flight arrangements this way

When we got to the car rental place they said there wasn't any cars, we explained that we booked through Expedia and the last was very rude to us. We then booked through hertz and had brilliant customer service and a lovely car. I'd highly recommend Hertz and will be avoiding dollar.
