First of all my sister had rented the car and I was the driver unable to pick up vehicle and Tony was no help and very rude. 2nd the next rear tire kept going low and we had to stop frequently to our air in the tire. We called a lost the tire issue and was told we needed to take it to Firestone and have the tire fixed or have them change the spare. There was no sense in Alamo sending someone out for just a tire. Well if that tire had blown out you would of been doing more than just a tire. I don’t feel it’s my job to fix the tire on a rental care but then again pick was terrible so why would I think custom service would be any better. Do not rent from Alamo ever

The staff at the Downtown Nashville Enterprise on 8th Street during the Christmas ‘22 Elliott Blizzard aftermath and the Southwest Airlines debacle, got me into a rental car so I could drive over 750 miles home. It was a challenge as they had few cars that morning but they worked hard at it and made it happen. They were pleasant and diligent and caring. I’ve never seen anything like it.

They made me park my vehicle on the street instead of their parking lot that was monitored. I felt like I wasn't sure I was going to see my vehicle again. There were plenty of spots open for them to let their clients park in the lot. Not the best experience

The nashville airport is confusing to get in and out of. I forgot to put gas in the car and traffic was so backed up at the airport that I could not go get gas once I was in line at the airport. There was no number to call at the rental desk to let them know I was going to be 10 minutes late. I ended up paying $10 a gallon. Left me with a bad taste overall.

I rented the car in the midst of the bomb cyclone and subsequent Southwest Airlines meltdown during the Christmas holidays which led to tens of thousands of passengers to seek alternative transportation. This led to rapid turnover of cars. The first car I was assigned had a nearly flat tire, so I had to stand in a long line to replace it. The car wash system was inoperable, so the car did not get cleaned. The car wash issue was weather related. Otherwise, it was a fun car to drive from Nashville, Tennessee to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It was a Toyota hybrid, which saved on gas. My experience overall was good, considering that it came in the middle of a weather disaster, which led to a host of related problems. I was just grateful to have a car, and I will definitely rent from them again should I need to rent a car in the future. Budget staff performed admirably well during an unprecedented crisis.

Staff at the counter were friendly fast and nice. Car was not so clean and the windshield wipers were torn and worn out which I did not know because it was not raining when I rented the car. The next day while driving in rain for 5 hours it was a problem. Cleaning and maintenance is a problem. Counter staff amazing.

They did not have a car for us on the day we reserved - I had paid the deposit too. We had to go to a different location the next day - which actually was more convenient- the 1st car we got had expired plates - which we didn’t know until we got pulled over by police!! had to drive about 30 miles out of our way to exchange cars. There was no sense of urgency to help us with a new car.

Pick up was easy. Dollar, Hertz and one other vendor were co-located and each was able to assist with the other's customers. Therefore, my wait was minimal. My only issue was trying to figure out what I needed to do to return before they opened at the airport. As it turned out the informaiton was on the envelope and on signs at the airport. Still, I didn't realize that at the time so I tried to call without success. It turned out to be no problem, just left the keys in the car.

Just as preface, this happened on July 4th Weekend. We booked a car on Kayak with "unlimited mileage". When we got to the counter at Advantage, they mentioned that this only applies to residents outside of the local area, so we were told that we had to pay an extra $20 a day to get unlimited mileage. Needless to say, we were not happy, and we decided to go to another car rental company in the same area. We had to pay much more since we did not reserve it ahead of time. But I would rather pay more with a company I trust than to ever deal with Kayak or Advantage ever again! I was very disappointed!

Good price, fast check in/out process.

The 1st car had heavy cigarette smell. I had requested a smoke free vehicle. The 2nd car they gave me was smaller than the 1st one and I'm 6'8". Um...Hello?! The 3rd car was an upgrade and very roomy and comfortable. Once I received an acceptable car it was a great experience.

The Customer Service was horrible both online and over the phone. When I reserved my vehicle it stated that I will have unlimited mileage but when I arrived to pick up the vehicle the man states that they have a new policy that only allows 260 miles a day because I was a resident of Tennessee. I told the guy that I was as driving to Miami and needed the unlimited plan. He basically told me sorry but I can't do anything about it. I called to speak with someone over the phone and she was even ruder than the man at the counter. Overall, I wouldn't recommend anyone to use their service. I ended up having to drive my own car to Miami not to mention it was a 1,000 miles away. I reserve my vehicle months and ahead of the new policy and they still wouldn't honor it.
