Pros:

The car was in good shape, friendly service.

Cons:

Car wasn't ready and I had to wait to get it cleaned. Also, I expended another 90.00 for car insurance that was pushed on me last minute and they told me it would be a 500.00 deposit to not have the insurance. I was also asked to pick out a car " I liked" in person when I already chose a price package online before pickup. I waited about 45 minutes to get out with the car, and had to wait while the car inspector measured a small scratch on the bumper when I returned though I took extreme care of the car on my 48 mile 3-day rental. The car was not examined thoroughly or by the same person when I picked the car up.

Enterprise was fine. However, I am unhappy about the vehicle coverage feature I signed up for on Kayak. I did not realize that this was an outside supplemental coverage - I thought it was coverage directly through Enterprise. I wold like to be reimbursed for this expense, as I paid for it again through Enterprise.
