The drop off was fine. But the pick up was not good at all. When I first got in line, there were two employees working the counter. They were making fun of how long it was taking and laughing at the situation not very urgent or a desire to help customers very much. It took a very long time to get to the counter and then to get in my rental car. I was lucky to get a car however everybody behind me was told that the car rental place was closing, and that they could not help anybody else. Just very poor customer service in general.

Although Kayak allowed me to book it, evidently Dollar does not respect reservations made less than 24 hours in advance. We Ubered across the Canadian border for $300 just to be turned away by Dollar and everyone else. Worst travel experience ever.
The best car rental experience of my life! From the moment I approached the counter to the last second, dropping the vehicle. Outstanding customer service.

I had to returnthe first car becasue of a slow leak in the back tire. I called the number provided on the contract and was provided with another car. This car did not have a USB port for charging my phone- very inconvient. Staff members were very helpful. The car was clean. It was a littel pricey though.

Didn’t even get a car. They are telling me because of covid they have no car. Can we stop using covid as an excuse please? Thank you. I Uber to the airport and wasted money and time. Stood in a line for 45 mins only to be told I needed a 24 hour reservation because they have a car shortage! Great. No one told me because kayak is a third party website. Lesson learned. Don’t book via third parties
Waited 20 minutes for them to bring a car and then the vehicle was a real beater…..lots of scratches and dents. The vehicle should have been retired from the fleet long ago.

Didn’t have vehicle ready for us. Needed car to drive three hours away to catch flight. Finally Got vehicle and went home to get kids and saw they didn’t install the car seats we rented like originally stated so had to go all the way back to get them. Ended up late for flight to where they almost didn’t let us board and didn’t get to fill tank due to the time because of them so charging me once again to fill the tank. Horrible experience

I reserved and paid for a SUV and received a tiny version of an SUV, very small rental for a very expensive price, horrible customer service, if you ever want to reach the rental location, it takes you to customer service in Mexico, horrible experience, will not re-use nor recommend AVIS. Almost missed my flight.

I was misinformed by the representative of Avis on the process and timing of charges. Was advised that only $200 would be charged to my cc upon pickup of the vehicle, and then the balance due could be paid upon drop off. However, the entire cost of the rental PLUS the $200 deposit was charged immediately to my card right after we picked up the car. Which caused an unfortunate chain of events. My card become overdrawn and caused me to incur additional NSF fees on my bank account.

Everything went smoothly despite our late-night arrival and our earlier-than-expected departure
Pick up bleu cheese chunks. My wife is losing her mind, still, three days later. She’s basically a crazy person, but she thinks robots would be way better at serving the needs of the frequent flyer. An hour wait seems excessive (Wife: “Felt like traversing the 3rd-to-last layer of Hell”). Further, if there’s a delay in securing the vehicle, the full rental agreement length should be honored. With an extra hour on the return, my wife could’ve had her frickin’ Buffalo wings from Duff’s. Peace. PS. Pick-up dude was great. And the whole experience was good overall. My wife really is obsessing over the standing-in-line part, but it wasn’t terrible. I can’t remember the last time renting a car was simple/smooth, so this is totally in line with what I’ve come to expect.

Pick up was fine. The car was clean ish but smelled kind of like urine. Drop off was not good. Workers standing around but noone came to accept the drop off. We went inside to drop off the keys and made note of the mileage, gas and time of drop off as per the instructions. The employee said that the information was already logged as the system is electronic. He also told me that I had to pay for a fuel surcharge because the gas tank wasn't completely full. I actually returned the car with more gas than when I picked it up and they still charged me! I filled up 8 miles from the drop off location and explained this to him. He was nice and seemed to empathize but said there was nothing he could do. Beware and go somewhere else!!!

I appreciated the ability to get a slightly better vehicle for the money using the “manager special” option, but I’m also aware that’s a crapshoot and dependent upon what they have available at any time. Although I got an upgrade, it was a smoked-in vehicle, and rags from the cleaning crew were left in the vehicle.
