Pros: Flexible, always have solutions, great staff, and clean/new cars. When the customer assistant felt I was stuck with unplanned high expenses, she reduced my bill and I loved that. Next time, for sure, Enterprise will be my first option.

Really rude employee
Cons: I left my sunglasses and hat in the rental car. I called the Enterprise on 611 Burnside St. and spoke to Kelly. She was incredibly rude and unhelpful over the phone. She spoke to me like I was an idiot for leaving belongings behind and it seemed like it was a huge inconvenience for her to be dealing with my problem. Even the most simple of questions were met with snide responses. I am still working on finding my own solution for having my items shipped to me. This is customer service 101 and she completely failed. This part of the experience was so bad that I will have to consider whether I will be using Enterprise again in the future.

Good value in a car rental, and the whole transact
Pros: Friendly, helpful staff. The guy at the desk even went outside to wash the car I was renting -- while wearing a coat and tie! That's dedication!
Cons: Facility is a bit small; they needed to move cars around in their small lot to extract the one I rented.

Best experience
Pros: This was by far the absolute, very best experience i have ever had with a rental company. The guys at the front were superb and even called to check in on experience next day. They were so great and so appreciative of our business. Very very ethical. I wish i had their names to write this review slecifically about them. They even drove us to the train station to catch a route to airport after drop off. Excellent. Portland was amazing as was but this experienced renewed my hope in humanity and how businesses conduct themselves!
Cons: Nothing to say.

Pick Up Confusion...
Pros: I like the Dollar was right there at the Airport, and no need to take a shuttle.
Cons: When I originally entered PDX for the airport as my search, and I chose the price deal offered by Dollar Rent A Car, it gave me a location in another part of town. I just thought it was an off Airport Site and expected to take a shuttle. The agent had to cancel that reservation, and then offer me a car at a much higher rate.
I probably won't use this service again as a result.

almost excellent
Pros: Entire process, with personnel on the ground in Portland and in Seattle, was smooth, professional, easy
Cons: Car was very clean, let me say quickly, BUT there were 2 empty beverage cans and a plastic glass that the previous renter had left in the console (between driver and passenger seat). Not awful, but who wants that.

Top notch service
Pros: We made reservations in advance and there was a hitch because the rental center that had the two autos we reserved was the downtown location rather than the airport. The desk agent was very helpful in moving the reservations to the airport (fortunate for us they had two vans ready) and gave us the same deal we arranged at the downtown location. We had two families with kids and were very happy we did not have to travel to downtown with all the luggage, car seats and strollers to pick up the autos. Thanks Dollar.
Cons: We only use a half a tank of fuel in one of the vans, so we would prefer to get some sort of a credit against the full tank purchase option. Perhaps a proportional credit could be added to the credit card once the van was refueled for the next customer.

Great customer service
Pros: The original car we rented broke down on us on our way to our son's wedding rehearsal. The roadside assistance guy was so helpful and a replacement was set up immediately! They were so apologetic about the problem and gave us an upgrade when replacing the car. From the airport shuttle to the car to the rental team and roadside assistance, they were amazing!

Great Customer Service!
Pros: From the shuttle driver from the airport, to the agent at the desk when I was picking up the car, to the woman at the drop-off... everyone was exceptional! Special shout out to the woman at the drop-off. When I told her I mistakenly signed up for the pre-pay as option, and I only used 1/8 of the tank of gas, she said she'd refund that amount and charge only for the gallons I used. Phew.
Thanks!

Cons: Alamo tried three times to screw me over. Once when they claimed my insurance wouldn't be accepted, once when they tried to sell me a more expensive car even though they knew they would have to upgrade me for free anyway since they didn't have a small vehicle, and a third time when they charged me some tax that was never part of the original deal. Never again!

6 Jul. 2017
Cons: I don't envision car rental companies staying in business much longer given the rates they charge, the cost of insurance that they encourage you to purchase, and the risk and headache a customer takes on driving a car that's not theirs. The person at the car drop off spent a long time examining a minuscule windshield chip that was already there when I picked up the vehicle! I didn't think to mention it to the Seattle Thrifty team because it was so minuscule. I will probably never rent a car ever again from Thrifty given how easily they'll blame the customer for things as minor as minuscule windshield chips. It was easily MUCH cheaper to just take Lyft around Portland, including to the far flung hiking spots, than to rent a car. NEVER AGAIN.

Quick easy return
Pros: We were in and out.
Cons: No review of the bill to go over charges we were not aware of or had not agreed to. Some hidden fees made the total cost more expensive upon drop off (about $65 more). We were not told of some of the fees at SeaTac. With those fees, taxes, and being charged a full day rental for extra driver for being 1 hour late to drop off, total bill was $140 more than the original quote.

Pros: Staff was friendly. Drop off was a bit confusing. No signage outside to indicate staying with vehicle until an attendant was available to help with check-in.
Cons: Stood where we were told under the awning for shuttle to airport. Watched shuttle bus drop off passengers then watched him pull away. He pulled around the back of the parking lot then left the premises. The same driver and shuttle returned about 10 minutes later and pulled up to load us??

Pros: the drop off was easy--
Cons: the car wasn't what was shown in the photos-- it also had 'hertz' logos all over it so i paid to drive a marketing campaign-- the price went up upon pickup due to a 'mandatory insurance', i was directed to the wrong car initially and had to go back inside to say this key does not unlock this car.

The car engine wouldn't start
Pros: The only good thing about this experience was one of Thrifty's managers, Yasmina. She was very helpful (at all hours of the night) in getting us a car that actually worked.
Cons: The car malfunctioned and coordinating with Thrifty to get it replaced was a pain in the butt. I had to miss part of a wedding because of a miscommunication on Thrifty's end.

Won't use hertz again
Pros: Car was clean and efficient
Cons: We requested pick up at the airport. Luckily before we went to get the car we saw a different address. The car pick up was a 25 min drive from the airport. We were late picking up and had called about being late. They still gave our reservation away and we had to wait for a car in the rental class- they didn't even offer to upgrade to another car they did have ready right away. They wouldn't entertain the idea of waiving the fee to drop off at the airport for when we left since we thought that was were the pick up and drop off were. There were hidden taxes and fees too. Just in general I felt like they were trying to hide the real cost of things. Won't be using them again- I haven't found that things are so hidden with other rental companies.

NEVER AGAIN!!!
Pros: When I found an Enterprise Rental Car right down the street from Hertz
Cons: I had a 1 o'clock appointment to pick up my rental car from the downtown Portland Hertz location, and showed up at the rental office at 2:01 PM after a $27 Uber ride from the airport. The door was locked and the entire staff was visible inside the business. I knocked on the window and was met by the manager (Flip) at the door. He asked if he could help me, and I informed him that I had a reservation. Flip imformed me they closed at 2PM (one minute prior to my arrival) and that they had given away all their vehicles. With a very unconcerned attitude, Flip told me there was nothing he could do. I informed Flip I had just flown in from Phoenix, Arizona and was in need of my rental car to drive to Eugene Oregon. He again said there was nothing he could do. I asked him what the purpose was in having a reservation was if they were going to be out of cars when customers arrived? Flip had no answer and suggested I walk down the street to his competitor. So, I found myself in a city I had never been to, dragging my suitcase down the street with no mode of transportation!
This "manager" named Flip of the downtown Portland Hertz branch was extremely unprofessional and a sad excuse for a human being, much less a representative of a major corporation. I will never as long as I live use another Hertz Rental Car! If you want a pleasant rental experience with professional representatives, go Enterprise 100 percent of the time.

What a way to travel
Pros: It was clean and smelled nice when we picked it up.
It was comfortable and had many hi-tech features like a USB port and Bluetooth
It was fuel efficient, we got 18.5 MPG
Lots of storage space in the back for our luggage. (We had 5 passengers)
Cons: By the end of the 7 day trip I was wishing that I could electronically adjust my seat, but I think that was more about being in the van for 7 days and less about the van.:)

Brand New Nissan Rogue
Pros: The car was brand new and super clean. I thoroughly enjoyed driving the car. It was comfortable and had reasonable acceleration.
Cons: Upon exiting the airport garage, the attendant was very rude. The manager on duty happened to come by. He was very friendly and receptive. He apologized and explained that he's regretting the decision to hire contractors for this position. He said he appreciated my input and would use it as an example at his next meeting with the bosses. He may be lying through his teeth, but he was very nice and easy to work with.

Missing information on AVIS web site for Portland Airport
Cons: There is no info on the AVIS web site telling you the rental cars at the Portland Airport, PDX, are located at the airport. Most airports, such as San Diego, where we came from, have the rental cars located offsite. We waiting for a shuttle van to come by, but no AVIS. We tried the phone number and just got the "press 1,2,3,etc message. Finally some airport employee told us to go to the AVIS counter and the cars were located in the upper parking structure.

Long wait for a car
Pros: Got a great deal for an SUV.
Cons: When booking said it was at the airport but had to take a shuttle to get the car then waited in line for about an hour. Kept trying to up sell us on a different cars because only had a few ready. Chose an SUV for a bit more money but was a good deal. Car was not very clean even though it looked like they just ran it through the wash.

Kayak insurance is not Budget insurance
Pros: We got the car we wanted, worked out well overall.
Cons: Budget rep explained that our online insurance purchase was third party... Should have save the money and purchased at pickup
Budget rep explained we would be driving through a storm and offered a choice of two different SUVs at an additional charge because of 4wd. Upon further inspection every available SUV on the lot was FWD. We don't appreciate the dishonesty.

Great Value, Odd Location
Pros: Quality vehicles, sharing fleet with Budget and Avis. Why pay more?

Cons: I don't like how the insurance sold on the website is different than the one offered by the rental company, so the customer is pressured into buying multiple policies to ensure proper coverage. I ended up spending hundreds more than my reservation claimed.

Top tips for renting a car in Portland
- Portland, Oregon is the ideal location to take advantage of the wondrous landscapes and climate that the northwestern United States has to offer. Renting a car will give you the unrivaled opportunity to explore Mount Hood National Forest, Columbia River and Gorge, Forest Park, and Blue Lake Regional Park. These regions are virtually inaccessible via public transport, and having a car will mean that you can drive directly to a gateway of fishing, hiking, bike riding, and scenic opportunities.
- Picking up your rental car at Portland International Airport is a quick and simple process. Proceed to the baggage claim area and walk directly across the road to the first level of the parking garage. Here, you will find many major car rental companies to choose from, such as Enterprise, Dollar, Payless, and Alamo. The distance from Portland International Airport to downtown is 9 miles; the quickest route is to take the Banfield Expressway (I-84), which will get you there in approximately 30 minutes.
- Portland’s beautiful weather encourages plenty of cyclists to get out on the roads and that means it’s important to be careful when driving your rental car. Be mindful of green bike boxes at intersections across the city, as these provide a safe space for cyclists to stop. It is illegal to turn right on a red light if there is a green bike box at the intersection. When driving in the downtown district, keep in mind that there are a lot of one-way streets, so it is best to use a navigational tool and to pre-plan your driving route.
- Due to the surrounding wilderness and national parks, Portland is prone to wildfires, such as the Eagle Creek Fire of 2017. Be sure to check the local weather conditions and that all roads and highways on your route are open and safe to access. Especially in the warm and dry summer months, regularly pay attention to weather warnings, as conditions can change quickly.
- 25% of our users found rental cars in Portland for C$ 58 or less
- Book your rental car in Portland at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Mini rental cars in Portland are around 74% cheaper than other car types, on average
