They seemed to be understaffed upon arrival and were pretty slow at moving things forward. The car had an issue where the back windshield seemed to have been shattered and previously replaced. Pieces of glass would fall out each time I opened the back door. I told them this when I dropped the car off.

Paid $315 for 3 days of local rental. Seats were filthy/stained and it reeked terribly of cigarette smoke. Didn’t realize how badly until I turned on the A/C later that day. Definitely one of the poorest quality/poorly taken care of cars I’ve ever rented.

Staff was nice. But car was not cleaned, gas tank empty when received, and vehicle maintenance seems to be way behind (oil light on).

The line was an hour. I had a reservation and when I got to the ticket counter the woman said even though I had a reservation and confirmation number, I made my reservation late so I could not get a car and that they were out of cars when they were not.

The Budget reservation system was to slow. There was a line of a dozen people (only at Budget) who had to wait over an hour to get checked in. Everything else was great - the car, value, etc.

It would have been nice if I didn't have to go to the rental counter first, and then go to another counter to pick up the keys.

The van that I had reserved and paid for 3 months in advance was "not available" when we arrived to pick it up. I specifically needed a large vehicle for college graduation and move out and this affected plans and I had to scramble to make new arrangements which cost twice as much. Will never trust Hertz again.

We had prepaid the Chevy Malibu and the agent said we had a 7 passenger reserved but if we downgraded to a Ford Edge we would save some money. No refund was issued. When returning the vehicle there was no agent to accent the vehicle and poor instructions on how to return it without an agent.

I do understand I booked thru Kayak, which promoted Priceline advance purchase. The desk agent was rude, I had to continually ask questions about gas location, my car, she didn’t offer an upgrade nor did she even thank me for using Hertz. My vehicle was all the way at the end, it appeared to be someone’s local vehicle, it was filthy inside: seats are all stained, there was no sticker on the vehicle for extra cleaning due to COVID and it was SMOKED in… it took two days for the smell to be air ped out. I worked for Hertz in Tampa for 3 years, I would have been embarrassed to rent this vehicle out to anyone. I also, work for AMEX Global Business Travel, she was not acceptable as a executive travel counselor or even just an AMEX employee. The vehicle had mechanical issues on top of the the other issues.

The person that helped us pick up the rental was EXCELLENT. He was the only one at the national AND alamo desk. He had a long line of customers to deal with but was super friendly and helpful. We were impressed with his professionalism and personalized attention as we picked up our car. There were two issues with the rental (one was a headrest issue) but we did not realize until we already picked up the car. There was little to no time to exam the vehicle prior to pick up. but we feel like the staff should have noticed the issues. Either way, we were really happy with the car rental and would definitely rent through this service again. thank you

My rental was simple and (mostly) straightforward. I had to make an itinerary change for the end of my trip, and that introduced a few twists, but the local Alamo manager cleaned it all up fast. Car worked great, dropoff was fast and simple, and my experience was all a-one.

They didn’t have the car I paid for! Terrible that your company booked it with a credit card and there is no communication with the car company IF they have any cars.

Service was good. Car ran well. There was an awful smell in the car like someone had smoked weed in the car and tried to cover it up with some deodorant spray or something. It was pretty bad and did impact our enjoyment of the car for the week.

Car was fine but finding Payless in TYS (Knoxville) airport was almost impossible. They was no desk in the rental car area, I had to go to the parking lot to find them and even then the only signage that said “Payless” was one small (8”X11”) piece of paper that said Avis, Budget, Payless.

My reservation was for a last minute trip and the purpose for the trip was canceled the next day. When i called to cancel the reservation I was informed my fee was non refundable. It would be good customer service to have a pop up message to the non refundable matter before I submit my final reservation.

Knowing ahead of time that Payless was handled by Avis would have been helpful. Also having to drive a pickup truck or upgrade and pay more was a surprise and something that they should have done without a charge. We did not want a pickup truck!
