Our interaction was seamless, both when picking up and dropping off. The gentlemen who helped us were wonderful and friendly. Charles and Stanley were their names ( I hope I am remembering correctly). While the wait to pick up was a bit long, Charles seemed to be training another employee while helping us, so it was understandable. Overall I am very happy. The price was great too. In a time when it’s difficult to get great service in the service industry, these young men definitely stand out. Thank you so much! Dale McCarthy

I liked the upgrade and the drop-off procedure, however two days after the drop-off I got a phone call inquiring about my return date since Hertz had no records about my vehicle being returned. The car was not properly cleaned, windshield smudgy, seats full of stains. Nobody on hand at pick-up to explain the car features, i.e., no spare tire, how to release the parking break, how to open the hood, etc. The paperwork did not show the unlimited mileage, personnel ignorant, no intention to provide service.

We called prior to pickup to notify our flight was delayed to make sure they wouldn’t give our car away. They wanted to cancel and rebook the reservation. They canceled but then could not get a car because there were none available. We had to go with another company and had to pay double what our reservation was with kayak. Not happy with this experience. Also they refund was $100 less than what we paid. Will now have to fight with Hertz to fight for $ back. Not happy at all

It was nothing about Avis. I am only disappointed about Kayak. I selected airport pick up. After I waited a long long time, i was like 45mins to pick up my car. I was informed that I went to a wrong location. I do request pick up in airport but….. at that time is 3:48. Your receipt showed that the shop will close at 4:00. i took a taxi and tried to get the car. When I came to the shop it showed that the operation hour close at 5pm. I am very angry and disappointed what Kayak information. I cannot receive all the right information from Kayak.

I forgot the name of the lady that helped me at the front desk but she was amazing. She opened up a few minutes early for me because she saw me waiting. She was very kind and personable. She discovered that I am a serving military member and then gave me an additional discount. After that she even gave me a shortcut to the base you can’t find on Google maps. She was a pleasure to do business with and a fantastic rep for your company. I only wish my check in process was this smooth at every rental agency. Keep up the great work!

We felt bad when we dropped off the vehicle that the spikes ruined a tire. It's hard to see coming into the parkade from the bright sun, while looking for signage of where to go. A different system would be helpful, or signage warning about the spikes.

Everything went smoothly with easy pick up and drop off. The only issue we had was with the brakes after the 3rd day. They were making a thumping noise when we applied them going down steep inclines in the rockies and the steering wheel was vibrating. I was told by a mechanic that the issue was probably a warped rotor so he advised us to not ride the brakes going down a steep hill and to use them moderately.

The National Car Rental staff at the YYC (Calgary) were super efficient and helpful. We got a brand new Chrysler Pacifica. The car itself was excellent. The gas tank was only three-quarters full, however. We noted that as we were exiting. The lady at the exit was kind enough to mark it as only half full. The drop off was also great, with super friendly staff upon arrival. We very much recommend National Car Rental at YYC.
