Staff was great, Pickup was flawless. Vehicle was perfect

It would have been nice if the branch we used was open later so we could physically hand the rental back in. We had to drop it off and leave keys in a drop box. Minor issue, though.

It would have been nice if they actually had the car I reserved, or any car at all.

The car was comfortable and easy to drive

Booked the car online, but when I arrived to pick my car up, the staff said there were no cars available. Had to wait over an hour for a car. The car also reeked of cigarette smoke. Vincent was friendly, but the rest of the staff was unfriendly and clearly didn’t care about the customers. Would not book at this location again.

A stone hit and cracked our windshield while traveling, and they swapped out our van at a different location in under 1 hour. Outstanding!

Truly, HERTZ IS THE BEST car rental company. I have rented from Budget, Dollar, National and my experience has been disastrous. With the only exception of Enterprise which has been decent. You pay a little more with Hertz but the way they treat you, trust you, WOW! In and out in a flash and also better quality cars. With the cheaper companies you pay less (in many cases a little less) but the lines, the problems the filling up forms, etc makes it Not Worth it!

Smooth transaction all around I didn’t fully grasp that the add on insurance offered was third party so you still have to provide your personal insurance provider at the counter.

The vehicle was clean but had a strong offensive perfume odor that was off putting. We used some essential oils on cotton to counteract. The check out process was quick, friendly and efficient. The price was high, probably because of Covid and demand.

“Computer wasn’t working” when we arrived. They sent us to enterprise to print and then come back. After 30min of confusion they then mentioned that although my reservation was for a Luxury SUV, they car they had was a std sedan. I walked 10 ft to Hertz counter and had a car in 8 min.

Prices for rentals are through the roof. Deposit on top of reservation was unbelievably high. Counter experience included an agent that seemed to think that these prices were absolutely normal and $1000 (deposit included) was normal for a 4 day rental Also, Mazda car we rented took us 4 days to figure out instrument cluster. Highly dissappointed

They are the worst company I have ever dealt with. All they care about is the money, we never actually used the car but they kept our money…do not rent from this company, you will be very disappointed.

The telephone tree for both kayak/Hotwire and Budget were impossible. I needed to update my arrival time to five hours later and needed to know if the counter was open at midnight. You both could do a better job of giving customers an option to update arrival and to assure the customer that the counter would be open.

Avis was a great disappointment! The bus I booked and confirmed severally through phone calls was said to be unavailable when I went to pick up. We were all set for the trip and suddenly no bus. I have called AVIS and they confirmed availability even a day to pick up. They just messed up our travel plans

Got a call early in the morning that there were no cars available for me to use. Was panicked. Called to confirm that I had heard the message correctly. Went to counter anyway, and they guy working (different than worker I had talked to earlier) couldn’t have been any nicer and said of course we have some cars available. Not sure what the issue was but I had several hours of panic trying for plan B and finding another car to rent on last minute notice that was affordable

I could reserve online but when went to the site, they didn't have car for me. They blamed priceline for taking reservation and they showed no sympathy or ex[pressed any regrets on my inconvenience. The avis front desk person suggested me to call 800 number and ask a different pick up location, I did and they directed me to a different location. Same problem, no car in the second pick up location (Lexington airport) as well. At the end, avis at airport gave me a 12 seater an (I had reserved a small 5-seater) which I drove all the way to Indianapolis. So pthetic. No consideration of my hassle. No discount. No professionalism. Will never trust Avis again.

Terrible service gave away my car 15 minutes after the reservation time and left me with no other options - Avis oversold the car allotment by 35 cars leaving myself and dozens of others who made reservations without a car option. Never using again
