The car was fine. The pick up was ok. When I returned the car, I had to wait one hour. There was one customer at the counter (I was next in line), and two employees. Why did they make me wait one hour?!

The car I got was trashy! It was pretty neat up looking….. I had to take nearly 15 pics of the dents and scratches! The insides also looked pretty beat up. Driving it was not comfort-now at all! They do not take care of their cars! I had rented from Budget few days before that and the difference was like night and day! But the staff was friendly! Would not rent again from here though!
Needed to cancel and was not able. Insurance that sold us was not good. Will never book through Kayak again. Sad

The Avis employee at pickup gave me a car which reeked of cigarette smoke and tried to tell me it was just someone's perfume. I insisted on another car, which also smelled like smoke but, since the previous car's much stronger smell was still in my nose, I did not notice until after I had left the lot. The inside of the windows were also so filthy that I had to buy glass cleaner and paper towels to wipe them down myself.
