Everything was good, except the car smelled like someone smoked in it heavily and they tried to take the smell away. The host was good and they rented me the car despite the fact that they were closed on my return date. Some rentals make you rent the car for 2 days since they are close pn Sunday. The car was clean and running well. They also gave me a free upgrade to a van.

Inflation in Biden‘s America is causing me not to be able to ride cars. I am praying for President Trump to be returned to office in the next election so gasoline, car rentals, car purchases and everything else can go back to normal.

Car had a heavy dose of Febreeze, but tobacco smoke was still noticeable. I had reserved a Kia Soul and was given a Toyota Tacoma. So much for good gas economy on a long trip. There was trash in the bed of the pickup when I took it. No assistance, just, here's the keys, the parking lot is two blocks away. Good luck. Probably never using them again, TBH.

They should ban the practice of requiring a zero balanced electric bill and not accepting chime credit cards, keeps a lot of minorities from renting vehicles any longer, I was unable to rent a vehicle.

First car smelled like strong chemicals. Made me nauseated. Called the local place they claimed their system was down at 9a and couldn't switch out the car until 1p. Had to drive 45 minutes to switch out. When I did they gave me the worst car on the lot. Philadelphia Airport is worst. Rude workers, Dirty car, car making noises, scratches and a dent. Horrible.

Off the train, through the rental counter, in my car and on the road. The process couldn't be easier and the staff couldn't be friendlier.

They called right before they closed the evening before I was picking up the vehicle to say they didn’t have the vehicle I had reserved (a minivan). It took an hour to talk to an actual human who said no minivans were available in the entire area and that she was very sorry. Thank you, Enterprise, for helping me out of a real problem. I will never rent from Hertz again

Wilmington didn't have our van, we had to be sent to another town to pick up what we had rented. When we got there, the van was not clean and was completely empty of fuel. The drop-off was supposed to be at Orlando airport, but they had changed the location without telling us other than in small print on the last page of the printout they gave us.

You get what you paid for-- NOTHING. Supposedly the military was in town and rented ALL the cars including the 1 I reserved and PAID for in advance! This is 2and time I'm left empty-handed with Hertz. They really do suck. First time, their PCs were down ALL weekend starting Friday and probably Monday of the following week too! Again NO CAR for me. And again, PAID in advance! NEVER AGAIN. I DONT CARE IF THE CAR IS FREE because very likely you AINT gonna get a car!!

I attempted to call to confirm my reservation the day before, but I was told that speaking to an agent on the phone would increase the cost of my rental. The pickup location on my reservation was flat-out wrong. I arrived at the location and was told they no longer rented cars, and I would need to go to a different location 2 miles away. When I finally picked up the car, there was a fee to add another authorized driver to the rental. Also, the fuel tank was not full, but the refueling options were not explained to me. I felt I had to return the vehicle with a full tank, which was not fair as I essentially paid for more fuel than I used.
