I was told the day before trip there were no cars available…. We finally did get a car but the person behind the desk was rude… we were promised an up grade but did not get one. We could barely fit our luggage in the car we were given and were told we had to return the car with half a tank of gas even though there was only a quarter tank in the car to start. It was very stressful
Car was gross. Smelled of smoke but only car option and didn’t offer me an upgrade. Front desk associate had an attitude and wasn’t very friendly. Hertz’s willingness to pick up the car from a local body shop was extremely helpful and I appreciated it very much.
