Dec. 2018
Pros:
The car itself was nice and clean. Drop off was quick and easy.Cons:
It took nearly 1.5 hours standing in line to get my rental - almost as long as it took to fly to FL! Then they said something was wrong with my rental agreement and they had me listed as returning the car to another airport! After that was corrected (for pickup/return to same location), they said the rate was wrong. After getting a manager to sort it out, they said something about an extra $50 due to the change, but the manager waived that. Drop off on return was easy and quick. When I returned home, I found a $700 charge on my credit card from Hertz IN ADDITION TO the original rental amount! They told me since I hadn't used the full 24 hours rental on return, they reverted it to an hourly rental for the final day at $38/hour!! After 2 hours on the phone with representatives, trying to get a clear explanation of this billing, it was finally reduced to $70. I will NEVER rent Hertz again. They blamed Kayak for they way reservations are made, my point to them was I paid for x number of days, returned the car earlier than anticipated, and should not be penalized, regardless of how the reservation was made. I unfortunatley left the original paperwork (rental agreement) in the car upon return, or I would have fought them even more over the $70.2.0 Poor

How do you rent a car to someone when you close at 5pm and your flight gets in at 5pm. Never got the car I want my money back. You sold me something that you knew you could not deliver on.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
Friendly and helpful peopleCons:
the car did not have a full tank of gas when I picked it up ....the customer service person said he would make an adjustment , but the power was out because of hurricane Irma. I also told the drop off person who said they would make an adjustment once the Internet service was restored. I hope they are correct.10.0 Wonderful

Asked for a Camry and was put in a small Jeep suv that had very uncomfortable seating. Lower Back has hurt for a couple days. I should have pushed for the Camry I reserved. Note the Jeep SUV was not an upgrade in my opinion.2.0 Poor
