The agent left work early so I was unable to pickup my car when my flight arrived, even though I entered my flight info in Kayak's database. I had to rent a car from another provider.

Waited over an hour for a reserved, pre paid rental. They did not have the size vehicle I wanted or reserved. Car smelled like cigarettes. The one employee had terrible customer service. No one was there when I dropped the car off. I called the number left on the desk. There was no answer and no voicemail.

They incorrectly blamed me for the smoke smell in the car upon my drop-off. It was inconvenient to have to call and get that charge dropped. Great car though!

They were very responsive. Pre-inspection would have been of benefit based on a vehicle that had some previous damage

Enterprise is one of the best. Someone still walks you to your car, checks for damage before you leave and makes sure you are good. Someone still greets you when you drop off your car. Other rental agencies just hand you keys at the counter and good luck…

At airport, no shuttle to off site rental car place. Called 1-800 # customer service to have them get a hold of somebody at offsite Alamo for a shuttle. Customer service agent did call the offsite place and said nobody was answering left a message with my contact # for them to get a hold of me and I still, to this day, Never received a call. It’s been 4 days.

The manager when we picked up the vehicle was extremely helpful. He personally got our vehicle, warmed it up as it was 16 degrees and loaded our luggage for us. He really went above to assist us.

Alamo needs to correct their automated answering messages as they do not direct customers correctly. Was not able to get to a real person, messages sent you in a circle and then disconnects.

I incurred 6.18 in tolls and now they tell me that there are admin fees, which were mentioned in the rental agreement, Now I am billed for over 100 dollars in admin fee. As courtesy to the renter, this should of been made more clear. This is unfair business and have rented so many times and NEVER have there been any problem with tolls. I completed dispute the admin fees. Buyer beware

If you could have more agents working it would shorten wait time. I waited in line to pick up car almost 45 min. Otherwise great experience. The lady who assisted me was very nice and quick overall. Just too few people to serve a long line.

The gas tank was only 3/4 full upon pick-up... However, the rule is to return it with a full tank, so that's about a $15 'surcharge'.

Like: Quick counter service; nice car. Dislike: (1) Car interior had heavy, unpleasant smoke smell. (2) Parking area attendant in departure area was missing for about 15 minutes when I and 2 other parties needed him for questions before we could leave (I could not get car in gear). So I was 15 min late to depart. Attendant was very helpful when he appeared. Maybe he had urgent conflict.

The car was a KIA and I had never driven one. It handled like a dream. We went thru different levels of raining and it was great!! It was good on gas. We drove to the Poconos in Pennsylvania. It handled the mountain terrain. The car was roomy and clean. We returned earlier than expected but no issues with return.
