Rented the car ahead of time through Kayak. Showed up and rented the car. Went outside to find out they did not have enough cars and were waiting on cars to come in. There were probably 15 people also waiting. Thankfully it only ended up being an extra 30 mins, but no one notified us at counter.

4 hours in 85 degrees temps to get a car that wouldn’t go into gear . Then get a car that we had to bring back bc the front tires had no tread and where unsafe. Then we got a nice car but where charged $195 for who knows . Then when we brought the car back they gave us a hard time bc the car didn’t have a front plate. Which it never did. But that was there style, Worst car rental experience ever.

I reserved the car but still had to wait over an hour for them to bring it up. In addition, there were so many people waiting, there wasn’t any room under the canopy and most us scramble to find shade. It was scorching hot and they didn’t offer any water or allowed people to wait in the AC building. When I finally got my car, it was old and stained. The engine made a horrible noise when we started driving so we returned it immediately and rented another car from National.

Expect 2 - 2 1/2 hour delay to pick up your car. Not an isolated case based on other’s comments after returning my car. Staff was friendly but there has to be a more efficient way to get your car.

Added insurance they made sound mandatory doubled the cost of renting the car. Even when I asked if I needed the insurance due to my personal insurance covering rentals they said there was no choice and I must have it. This was all false. I'll never use Dollar again.

The gas tank was not completely full when I picked up the car. I did not realize it until I had already left the rental agency. It was probably a couple of gallons short. The agency was so busy last night, there was no way I was going to raise the issue as we had a flight to catch. When I picked up the vehicle, the agents kindly drove it right up to us. The problem being there was no place to actually adjust the seats etc. before I left. Not a big deal, but I would rather have time to familiarize myself with the car before I was expected to drive away.

The experience was fine once I finally got in the car. There was no clearly designated shuttle to National from the airport, and only half as many shuttles in place as needed: the airport was a mob scene of people attempting to secure a space on a shuttle. Once at the rental kiosk their were long lines (40 minutes). Helpful service person upon reaching the counter. Then…another 30 minute wait with a crowd of 50+ people waiting for cars to be cleaned and delivered for rental. A terrible two hour ordeal to start a vacation.

The staff were all so nice! We found a guy's credit card on the floor board under the driver's seat and another wrapper in the Jeep. We didn't mind. But if someone else found his card, they might have tried to use it. We've shredded it.

Shuttle is totally inadequate. After waiting in the sun for 45 minutes for the National shuttle we gave up on renting a car and caught a taxi to our hotel. Don't need that level of aggravation on vacation.

We waited 90 minutes for a car. 90 minutes. The type we reserved wasn’t available so we were given a gas guzzler. We drove back to the airport the next day and got a different car - a beat-up Elantra with 47,000 miles on it. We were told it was “ready to go.” It was a blatant lie - it was filthy and spent the next hour cleaning the windows and vacuuming. Really lousy experience.

The guy didn’t tell me about the substantial Fee for refilling the gas Tank (30 %+ markup-charges); he just told me the fuel was cheaper. I feel that was a deception; i would have filled it myself if he hadnt made it sound so good.

Very poor experience. First, there was a very long line with a 45 minute wait. Friendly staff, but car I ordered was not available. OK, the alternative was a minivan or convertible. I chose the convertible but it was dirty inside (literally with a footprint on the seats). Some time later they replaced it with an Impala. It was the most beat up rental I have ever seen with 45k miles. It was also dirty inside. At this point I could live with that, but on the highway it made a loud noise at highways speeds indicating a serious mechanical issue. I had to return it and was given a new Kia sedan which finally was OK, but after 2 hours of aggravation.
