The staff was very friendly when I picked up the car and when I dropped it off.

I think that on a Friday evening you should have more than 2 people working.

The car rental was not caught up with the times. Thrifty should be called cheapy. It was an overpriced car rental. If you want to be reminded of old school cars- and walk around and unlock all cars manually and crank the windows down manually- then order here.

The gentleman could not be more impolite. We felt like not purchasing or renting something but like in a police station as a shop lifter. Simply; he could have been better. He did not even greet back.

They didn’t honor my Kayak reserve and I had to leave the place without a car. I had to find a new rental place and pay much more than what was offered to me by Kayak. Pretty disappointing business behavior.

Through Kayak, I reserved a vehicle a specific vehicle at a specific Hertz location for $30.00 a day. I arrived to be told that it was my responsibility to call the location to confirm the vehicle or any vehicle was actually available. They had one vehicle available and they charged me $50.00 a day for it. I was told that they reduced the rental cost of that vehicle to $50.00, under the circumstances. However, I don't believe that I should have been charged more when I reserved a $30.00 a day vehicle, which was also far more fuel efficient. This was wrong on so many levels and then I was blamed.

Hertz should hire more employees at this location. This is not our first time renting a car from this location. The first time they ran out of cars and we were not able to get a car even though we had reserved one online. Most times the place is packed and the couple of people there seem really overwhelmed. More than one customer did not get the car they reserved or were charged an additional amount because they did not have the car that was supposed to be available (our experience this past time).

I was driving to Pasadena when my car started malfunctioning. I called my son and he found me a rental car to pick up in Pasadena on Arroyo Seco . My car barely got there but I managed to make it and when I went inside to rent my car the man said we don't have any cars. I showed him my reservation and he checked his computer and said this happens all the time with these discount services like Kayak and others. They rent cars and we don't have the inventory. The rental place did not even have a bathroom for me to use. Nothing but a waste of time. Your system is unreliable. I won't use it again. I took the train home. JC from San Diego
