Cheap Car Hire in Ras al-Amud, Jerusalem from ₹ 416

I appreciated the upgraded car that Hodaya provided (a MAZDA 2); we had bad weather (rain) and it was much better to have this model. Thank you very much to the entire staff at the Mamilla Mall location in Jerusalem. R/S, Dan Goodman 050 317 2597 cell phone when in Israel

Car was comically old and dirty.

Here’s is an unmet need: Israel has switched to paying for parking with Cello or Pango. Pango only works with Israeli phones. Cello claims not to, but I could not get Cello to send a connection to my phone, so it did not work. If you cannot park, you cannot drive, as a foreigner. Rental companies need to fix this.

Important to remember you have to call to exit and enter the return garage. Make sure you have your phone service!

very good

Drop off was not pleasant. Price was ridiculous for you got.

A bit of a walk to pick up and drop off the car. The people were helpful and friendly

Customer service was terrible. I booked two nine passenger vans, none were ready and one wasn’t even there. I switched to a 5 passenger and 7, and it took them almost 2 hours to get it ready and reserve it for me. On top of that, the price was very expensive for the insurance. I then found out my chase visa covers insurance but the manager didn’t feel like reversing it and said “they don’t really cover it’s a hassle”

Everything from start to finish was easy BUT THE VAN WASN'T CLEAN

When I came to pick up the rental car, I entered the Avis office and found none of the staff were wearing masks, violating the local indoor mask mandate. Upon entering, I was completely ignored by the two agents. The first was half-asleep, the other was busy with some paperwork behind the desk. Neither welcomed me or said anything to me so I went up to the second, since she at least seemed to be working. When I told her I was there to pick up my rental I felt like it was a significant inconvenience for her to actually have to do her job. Throughout the transaction, the first agent was hanging her head in an apparent attempt to sleep - she seemed to be either extremely hung over or still drunk from the night before. After picking up the car I discovered the previous renter’s clothes and garbage on the floor of the back seat, so it had clearly not been cleaned. While driving, I needed to clean the windshield, and found that the wiper fluid was completely dry!!! Apparently cleanliness (during a pandemic), fleet maintenance, and driver safety are not relevant to Avis! Upon returning the car, I wanted to complain about my experience. The return agent told me to speak to the man in the office, who called someone else and told me to wait. After 5-10 minutes, a man who later identified himself as “Guy” finally drove up and entered the office. When I started to tell him about my complaints, he continuously interrupted me and insolently rejected what I had to say and clearly didn’t care at all. (Some version of: not my problem; what do you want from me; blame the Jerusalem office; and similar evasions were all he could muster. Not a single word of apology!) I left in disgust, swearing to never rent from Avis again! “We Try Harder” indeed. More like “We Don't Bother!”
