This location is an absolute nightmare. Read Google reviews all the same story. Bottom line you can’t rely on them to have a car for you when you get there. Doesn’t matter if you reserve well in advance and prepay. And when you finally get a car, I got mine with 16 percent gas left and the car reeked of marijuana. Do yourself a favor and do not rent from them.Reviewed Feb 26 2026

The worst, front desk attendant didn’t take care of what I was requesting and in need at the moment. She just brought an impromptu rental policy by telling me that as I just booked the car then there was a 2 hours wait, otherwise, if urgent I must upgrade and pay a higher rate, twice the rate I was willing to pay for. I travel a lot, sometimes I have to react from one day to another, I don’t have too much time for planning, I have never experienced this before, in any airport. Just this time with Thrifty at San Antonio (SAT) airport. RidiculousReviewed Feb 25 2026

The staff at the Thrifty car rental office were helpful. The car I rented was in the worst shape of any car I have ever rented from any rental company. There were numerous dents, scratches on the exterior and stains on the interior seats. There appeared to be two spare tires on the rental car.Reviewed Feb 18 2026

I got the vechile with low fuel, I was expected to fuel the tank to drive it, then bring it back with a full tank. Gotta love it l, paying for someone else's gas. Be prepared at this location for that to happen.Reviewed Jan 28 2026
