1) Kayak providing a telephone number for assistance. 2) Hertz working better with me to address the issue of their downtown office being closed

I was scheduled to return on 7/4 but was not told the location would be closed. When I called the customer service number, they advised me to return it to the airport location. The airport location attempted the charge me for returning it to a different location. Hertz wasted 2 hours of my time, attempted to charge me MORE for their mistake and never once even apologized.

The price offered through Kayak was great. The staff at the Hertz location when we picked up was awful. They were very slow and had zero concern for helping anyone quickly. They also said our only option was a fully electric vehicle. We had to argue with the front office person to get to a manager to get to a gas vehicle. It was a terrible experience. The drop off was fine.

Hertz did not have an intermediate SUV. Hertz tried to give me an (SMALL) Electric Vehicle which was several classes below my rental reservation and wanted to charge me the same as the InterMediate Vehicle Rate! E Vehicle had no Cord to Charga and I was being advised to go to a charging station. Since I was headed 400 miles one way and into a Remote area... DOES NOT WORK! No Mediatio... Take it or leave it attitude. SUCKED! Very Disgusting.

Upon check in, no vehicles were available. Had to take a truck that had just pulled in as a return. The truck had an overwhelming smell of cigarettes and marijuana which personnel said they would clean so had to wait an extra hour for the vehicle. Not sure what type of "cleaning" was conducted to take the smell out but whatever it was, did not work. Probably had contact high each time I got in the vehicle and clothes were penetrated with the awful stench. Sprayed 4 bottles of Lysol and Febreeze which didn't work.

Call was cleaned and ready to go. Nice customer service.
The process at check-in takes much too long. It seems this could all have done on-line except scanning in my DL and Credit Card. The car was fine, smelled heavily of smoke.
We arrived at the Budget counter at our scheduled pick up time, 1 pm. The line to get to the counter was a football field long. After asking those in the front we determined the wait time was 2-3 hours. We had doctor's appointments in Reno that afternoon which we would make, if we were able to get our car and go. A 2.5 hour wait would result in missing the appointments. We called an Uber and proceeded to Reno to make our appointments. I tried to cancel my reservation, only to be told on the app that I could not cancel. I will be disputing any charge on my credit card as Budget clearly did not meet the requirement of the contract to have an available car in a reasonable amount of time. Budget was well aware of the demand for cars to which they had agreed to supply. They had two representatives to service 100 yards of customers. That is not reasonable. Avis, Hertz and Enterprise had lines of two to three waiting customers; that is reasonable. I will never use on-line suppliers like Kayak again to book a rental car. I will join companies like Hertz and book directly with them.

I was given a new car with only about 3,000 miles on it. Pick up staff and drop off staff were polite, friendly and effecient. It was clean inside and out. It had a small pit in the front window when I received the car but that was not noted by the staff but was not charged Down side was receiving the car wirh just over 3/4 tank of gas. They have noone to show or discuss this with upon leving the lot so I took a photo with the milage and tank level. When I returned the car I point this out. I returned the car with the same amount of fuel that it had when I checked it out and was told that I would be charged because that was automatic but I should watch for a refund in a few weeks. Why not address and rectify the situation then and there rather than take my money, hold my money and payme back later for something I never received?
The car smelt really bad, it was not cleaned properly

The car was very nice at a reasonable price as compared to other companies. It was a little worn and dirty in some areas, though. Still a great value.
