car was ready when I asked, clean, got great mileage, and destination airport had 24 hour service, so when I arrived at 4 o'clock in the morning, they were there smiling in a great mood happy to take the keys and get me on my way super efficiently.

I had to wait in line at the airport rental desk to show my rental agreement and then after being directed to the outside area I waited for almost 30 minutes to get my car. After getting in the car and leaving the airport it became very obvious that the vehicle had been smoked in. It stank so bad that we drove with the windows down and left the windows down everywhere we parked for the entire week that we drove the car.

Vehicle had a very bad rotor which cause a great deal of vibration when breaking. This was unsettling since we were driving in mountain areas. I told the associates when I dropped it off about the problem. They said it would be taken care of. I hope they do!

The pick up and return was quick and simple and the staff was friendly and helpful. Upon return I pointed out a spot on the rear seat where a prior occupant had dropped chocolate on the seat and they gave me a credit for having to drive a dirty vehicle!

Absolutely nothing!

The staff was super on-point. The car was new and clean.

The dropoff process was pretty straightforward, but having never rented a car before, the after-hours dropoff was a little baffling until I called them.

Drop off was super easy and very friendly, even at 5am! I needed an AWD vehicle and received a Suburban, which was much larger than the Standard SUV that I had reserved. This ended up being very appreciated as it handled the heavy snowfall very well. Loved the heated seats, too!

Pickup was a little slow. It took over 15 minutes before someone helped me.

I can’t rate a company for which I never received a car from

Everything. Starting with being present to provide the car in which I reserved instead of sending me on a wild goose chase to another company to have it fulfilled.

They didn’t have an employee at the counter. 50 people didn’t get their cars. Sent to Avis and Budget for cars, or to other vendors. They are involved in a bait and switch.

Avoid them completely.

Customer service rep was super fast and did not try to sell me add-ons. This for me is very important - I really dislike attempts to be upsold and would rather just use a kiosk or answer such questions, or better, online beforehand. Like "do you want insurance? do you want a GPS device? do you want a toll device?". Anyway, this rep didn't try to do any of that for which I am thankful. Was very fast when I finally got to the counter. The only problem was that there was an hour-long line for pickup because there weren't enough representatives, which sucked. All else was just great.

The car was provided with only 1/2 tank of gas, but had to be returned full. There was no one to communicate this issue with at pick-up. I asked if I could have a partial refund or the price difference at drop off, and was told no.

Gold member. Rented two months ahead of time for a conference. Upon arrival, I went to check in on app, which displayed “unavailable”. Wait at counter to check in, lady tells me car is ready in pick up area. Go to pick up, nobody knows what I’m taking about and don’t care to find out. Walk back to counter, tell lady my problem. She tells me to go back and wait. 40 mins later, my rental shows up covered in dirty water and all the LiDAR sensors are giving warnings. At that point I was late, so I had to take it. Customer service is awful, I doubt I’ll be back.

Terrible experience. Waited two hours. Had to settle for a down grade of what we originally selected just to avoid waiting longer. The wait was due to lack of cars. Customer service reps were nice but there wasn’t enough of them for Volume of costumers

I could not find my driver's license, so I was not able to rent the car after having made a reservation in advance. I COMPLETELY understand and agree that it was my fault. However, because the car was not taken out of the lot, I should not have been made to pay the insurance or taxes, etc.

The only suggestion I would make is at the Reno airport, when there is no one at the booth and rhe car is a call-up, it’s just necessary to sit and wait for the car to be brought up. This only applies to that airport and only under certain circumstances. Otherwise, job well done.

The rate and car were fine. The experience at pick up was really bad. Each employee seemed to go out of their way to not be kind. The expressed aggrevation and frustration with us and the other people I was able to hear while in line.

The Reno Budget pick up was one of the worst I’ve ever had. I say for 30 minutes waiting for them to bring my car and give me the keys. I watched as numerous clients names were called and drove away on their rental car. I finally walked around to find my car. They had forgotten to tell me it was ready and asked like it was my fault for not being more proactive when all the other clients were in and out very smoothly. It was not good. Literally one of the worst I have had.
