We enjoyed an easy check in with a very good/new vehicle. The only issue was that the vehicle did not get cleaned/washed. The car had some trash in cup holders, but it drove well and did well. The return and final invoice was exactly as quoted.

Very long, slow line to pick up. Friendly representative was clearly waiting several seconds between steps for the computer to perform the task. When I went to get the car, another patron had been assigned the same car. The staff quickly sorted it out, but this should not happen with a modern, computerized system.

The staff could not have been any more friendly and helpful. We got exactly the car we needed for driving on snowy roads. Our car did great in the sub-zero temperatures we had during the week. The Return process was amazingly efficient and seamless. The layout of the return lanes was great. It took less than 10 minutes to return the car, get our bags checked into the Delta counter, and walk to the TSA Security Area. Will definitely rent from Alamo on next trip to Minneapolis.

Great! Car, was a bit difficult to find a terminal but easy drop off. Our original car rental agency gave away our car and we had no car. I went to the counter to ask if Alamo had any cars and they said no, reservation only, and sent us away. I then went on to Kayak and made a reservation in 2 minutes with Alamo, and went right back to the counter. She could have just told me to do that instead of being short and telling us there were no options for cars. Outside of that everything was great

2021 Nissan Rouge didn't have the most basic accessorie or option of " cruise control " . Believe me , I checked the owners manual..... I rented this vehicle for 10 days , paid over 1,400.00 dollars . I drove almost 2000 miles in Excruciating leg numbing pain. The drive was a living nightmare and I regret renting a car from your company. NEVER AGAIN !!!!!

It was unfortunate as a resident of state I was renting that they had a higher deposit rate for their company’s. Not the same throughout all rentals at airport and should be sent notice to customers of this before hand .

A bit pricey, but understandable for the busy summer season. Staff were courteous. Our flight was delayed by almost 10 hours and they held the vehicle for us no questions asked. Vehicle was ready for us, clean, full tank of gas, and good to go. Return was also great, we ran a tad late but weren't charged a late fee. Would rent again.

Checking in: There were only two workers, only one who was at the desk and the other was trying to find cars. Then they attempted to split the 25 people who were waiting at 11pm to get their cars but were running out of cars. They were doing the best with what they had. There were a lot of complaints from people in line though. We did get a larger car than expected, but because they were low I'm assuming, the vehicle was barely cleaned out and only had 3/4 of a tank of gas. Which when I'm expected to return it full, is very annoying. The wipers barely cleaned the windshield, which thankfully I only needed once and did not have to drive in the rain otherwise it would have been dangerous.

Flight was delayed. Hertz where I had the reservation was closed by the time I arrived. Hertz airport location wouldn’t honor the reservation price nor would they credit the money toward the new reservation. Wasn’t able to reach kayak either. Entire experience was disappointing (and expensive).

The pickup process was very slow - I probably waited 45 minutes in line but that line was only 3-4 people deep! This was at 8 AM, so not an off-hours problem. And then when I went to find my car, there was no one at the booth who could help me. I wandered around the lot until someone from National helped me. The car I got was not what I asked for - a full size vehicle versus smaller, and I thought it would be a Toyota Corolla, but it was a Nissan. I guess there was a hidden "or similar" descriptor that I missed. The rest of my experience was good - the car did well through a snowstorm, which was huge. But the pickup experience is not what I remember from Enterprise, and frankly, that's why I picked Enterprise!

We booked a convertible months in advance to use for our wedding. They did not have the convertible. It was a big disappointment to us. However, Ruth provided excellent customer service and called us later to apologize, which was appreciated.

First car needed to be returned due to key error message. Second car picked up at different location was not clean, smelled of smoke, chip in windshield and wiper blades were falling apart. Given to me with less than half a tank of gas. No paper work given due to printers being down. Service agent at St Paul University Ave was very nice but we will see if my complain about the Smokey car ended up being relayed to the airport location. I don’t think I’ll rent from Enterprise again.

Avis scheduled my drop off for Labor Day then were closed, wouldn’t let me do an after hours drop off, then told me I’d be automatically be charged the extra day and if I returned it by 11 am the following day they would refund the charge if I called them back. Like this is the opposite of customer service I don’t work for Avis and they’re telling me too bad and making demands. Absolutely terrible company. I had to postpone plans in order to hold this key an extra 16 hours and return it to them. Abysmal.
