Rental counter was super hard to find, no signage or anything.

Cons:

Took too long to get rental. I think it was around 20 minutes. Car still had cleaning wipes from previous rental or the cleaning crew left them in the car.

Pros:

Overall, nice car & drop off was super easy. We paid for a full standard car and they provided a small SUV, which was appreciated. Price was way more of a value than picking up a rental from the airport.

Cons:

A little confusing finding the Hertz desk - we didn’t realize it was located on the 3rd floor of the Marriott. Would recommend them adding Marriott hotels to the address line.

Cons:

When arriving at Hertz at the Tampa airport, and waiting inline only to find my reservation was for another Hertz across town. Hertz moved my reservation to the airport location but I had to pay 3 times the amount. Pay attention to the rental address when you book!

Pros:

The day before we left they called to inform us that they didn't have a car for us anymore, and we were number 1 on the waiting list.

Cons:

They never called us to let us know they had the car promised us previously. We ended-up paying twice as much through a different rental company.

Pros:

The staff was very helpful and the office was clean. They came out and helped me hook up my blue tooth when I asked. Very friendly.

Cons:

My car was dirty and smelled pretty bad from a smoker. They did give it a quick wash for me, but the smell lasted for my whole trip.

Great customer service. Kayak’s website mistakenly allowed me to rent a rental car that was not at the airport rental. In lieu of charging me double for the reservation, the agent helped me get a new reservation at only a 50% increase versus a 100% increase from my reservation rate.

Dear national Or third party! I’m waiting for car rental National to refund me the funds they took from my account on two different transactions! On the date I return the car to the same location I picked the car as planned the staff were not what is going! Very disappointed. I want my money! And I’m going to put in a complaint

It wasn’t National’s fault, it was Kayak’s fault. You booked a car at a location that was closed, never sent a confirmation email and then offered no help in rebooking. The supervisor I talked to on the phone was rude and ended up hanging up. Completely disappointed with the way you guys left me stranded. I’ve never been treated like this by a company for something that was their fault. Never using Kayak or any affiliated companies again.
