When returning the vehicle, I was most impressed with James. His genuine friendliness and super customer service should be recognized and rewarded. Thanks again to James!

Car wasn't clean upon pick-up but attendant was helpful and friendly. Also, windshield wipers were very bad -- we had to get them replaced several days later.

The supervisor trying to do his best with the situation

Provide the total of the rental with all the fees that were going to be associated with the rental. I did use my rental because of the hidden fees that brought the total over a $1000 dollars and it needing to be on a credit card.

Easy and quick pickup and very easy dropoff. Vehicle was in excellent condition.

With complicated user interface systems and no real standards between manufactures it would be good to offer an orientation to the customer but it would require additional personal.

I reserved a compact car and was given a 7 seat Voyager van as the only option at the cost in gas milage of probably 10 miles per gallon. With the driving I did, this added significantly to my trip cost. I tried to trade it out in 2 other cities and was told that there were no cars available

Easy pickup at ABQ airport, agent was friendly and helpful. A bit surprised that the vehicle was a 2019 model. Not an issue, car was fine, just expected a newer vehicle. Drop off in Santa Fe was a bit difficult. The Hertz office is inside a hotel parking garage. We had the address, but there is no outside signage indicating that Hertz had an office inside, and no mention on our paperwork. Luckily the desk clerk at our hotel knew where the Hertz return was located.

They charged me over $200 for gas, when I returned the car fully fueled. In corresponding with them they said they would refund some of the money. I haven't seen a cent!

Car was clean and drop off easy.

They push the fuel option without explaining that you are charged for a full tank of gas regardless of what's in the car when you return, plus it appear that you are then charged taxes on this. Yes, the details are in the contract, but they carefully avoid explaining it. Never do that again. Also, they are less than candid about the insurance option, which probably leads most people to accept the "basic" plan not realizing that it adds dramatically to the cost. I believe that they do these things intentionally and many people end up paying much more than they anticipated. I probably won't use this company again.

Loved the staff in the morning when we ultimately picked up our car!

When we arrived approximately 3 minutes before closing time, with a reservation, the desk was closed. We were forced to hire an Uber that night and again in the morning to return and get our car. Two other parties also arrived when we did.

The pick-up was horrible due to the hour and 18-minute wait. Other than that, the agent was competent & helpful, the car was fine, and the drop-off was as well.

The pick-up was horrible. One person at the desk with a dozen customers on line. (It's not as if Advantage didn't know how many reservations they had that afternoon.) I waited an hour and 18 minutes (I timed it) to be served. No more Advantage for me.

I made the reservation but upon pick up, there were no cars available. They were overbooked by at least 15 cars.

The car was not clean to say the least. We were very uncomfortable with a dirty car. It was dirty inside and out. We couldn’t go back to tell them at the counter because we were exhausted. We took the dirty car.

The interior of the car was dirty the seats had stains all over them. Then when u check out the car you have to go back to shack to have them sign off on the damage report. My car was ok and ran fine just felt loose in the suspension.

I got a Ford EcoSport small SUV which was good for traveling into areas where paved driveways don't exist. The car was clean, good value, and check-out was fast. When we arrived there were two staff in the check-in area. One was helping a customer, and the other was just there. Not doing anything. I can understand if only one was really working and the other might have been keeping the other company, but at least acknowledge us with a simple "Hello, Welcome, or Be right with you."
